Ric Flair Posted 26 January 2022 Posted 26 January 2022 1 hour ago, Shane said: Where do you think Will Alves fits in Ric? Loaned out perhaps? Would love to see him get a chance with us but if we sign Lookman + all these other attacking players I can’t see Alves getting much game time. Maybe we won’t see him in the first team squad until 2024 when Albrighton’s contract expires and we need a replacement. Alves will be a #10 or maybe played wide left cutting in. He's a wizard and Rodgers has already alluded to him being ready but not physically, so I can't see it being much more than a year or 18 months before he's considered a first team squad member. Maybe a loan to the Championship next season might happen but he only turns 17 in March I think so we might just opt to keep him and use him more and more as he grows. Big year next year for him. 1
reynard Posted 26 January 2022 Posted 26 January 2022 This doesn't seem to address our immediate requirements. Can't see it happening now.
Outfox the Fox Posted 26 January 2022 Posted 26 January 2022 https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mohamed-ali-cho/profil/spieler/670847 I dont know if Everton might be in for him AGAIN - but he was at their Academy for 4 years ! This has got 'Nacho replacement' all over it - a left footed central striker. 1
Dusty Posted 26 January 2022 Posted 26 January 2022 1 hour ago, Xen said: Tarkowski might not be fast, but he's a LOT more mobile than Vestergaard. And a smarter defender too. You can draw a lot of parallels between Tarkowski and Evans, who is also slower but has been stellar for us in our system, especially alongside a faster CB partner like Fofana, Soyuncu or Amartey. He'd be a brilliant fit for us. But Evans also has fantastic ability on the ball, which even shone through when he was at West Brom and why clubs like arsenal and Man City were interested. Tarkowski just hasn’t demonstrated he can do it. Dont get me wrong, he’d be an upgrade on vesty, but still square peg in a round hole scenario.

We really don’t have any immediate requirements, unfortunately. The mission seems to be to get through to the season and rebuild for next year.

I’d hate to see him go but Daka is the future therefore Kelch can be sacrificed for some summer funds.

Big shoes to fill replacing the goals that Iheanacho brings to the table. When/if we do sell Kelechi we better get enough to buy two or three of this guy or we've been screwed.

I agree expecting an 18 year old kid with one goal to his name to replace a 25 y.o established PL striker is stretching it a bit. 1
Rigga Posted 26 January 2022 Posted 26 January 2022 Nacho assists and scores… plenty of reason for BR to sell him… should be looking to offload Perez rather than Kel.

He is, but his first touch can be absolute garbage! Many promising attacking opportunities go missing because of it. The first half of the FA Cup Final being a good example if memory serves right.
