I suppose if we lose Hamza and Praet then we need 2 more which could be Soumare and Ricci but then where does that leave KDH and none of them are ACM's which we need better competition for Maddison. If we going to bring in 2 CMs then I'd rather KDH go out on loan to a premier league side if he could get a good amount of game time. I really think he could develop into a good EPL squad player for us but at 23 he'd need to play more than a handful of games next season. If we only bring in 1 CM and we lose Hamza + 1 other then KDH might get 15 starts for us next season mainly in the cups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather KDH get a chance here next season than signing someone younger than him to do the same role. Soumare I am on board with but do we then need to sign another CM as well? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, Tavares needs a senior contract but if he is as good as everybody keeps saying then he should get one. Bottom line is though we need more experience , we are well equipped with younger players. I don’t think it’s quite as simple as him being good enough he’ll get 1! By all accounts we’ve been trying to get him tied down for a while and the last we heard a contract was on the table but I guess he fancies his chances of breaking through and getting first team football at another club over us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I think Soumare is enough and with KDH coming in as well I could see 2 of Mendy, Hamza and Praet moving on (Praet and Hamza probably want the game time). I'd prefer any money recouped from those sales going on a young Perez upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been to that part of East London and can sympathise . Parts of it even make Burnley look habitable. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turlo Posted 24 May 2021 Share Posted 24 May 2021 A new CB is a tough one assuming he'll be 4th choice and we mainly play a back 4. We need someone who's experienced, willing to be used as cover & cup games, won't cost much and good enough to step in when starters pick up injuries.

I'm guessing he's on peanuts at Burnley and there is scope in our structure to make an attractive offer which would set him up towards the end of his career. Tarkowski would have been perfect to bring on yesterday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we got them down to 20 mill there might not be enough left in the transfer kitty assuming CM, RW and CF are the top priority Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do Dyche/Burnley seem like the sort to let a player walk away for free next year? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends entirely on what our preferred formation is I guess.. it we stick with the back three then realistically we’ll need a minimum of 4 decent CB’s + a back up to allow for plenty of rotation in keeping players fresh and cover for any injuries. Ajer wouldn’t be a bad shout if he is available for around £10m and would still then potentially leave some funds for an older head too..
