I know I've said it a few times but the more I think about it the more I am convinced that cover for Barnes is a bigger priority for us than a new RW. Honestly, I actually do think I agree with that. If Barnes is injured we have to change the whole shape, where as we've got multiple options on the right that Rodgers will happily play and keep the 433. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think the club will be spending £25m? After everything that’s been written about our inability to go out and spend or did that pass you by? Sarr is the obvious option but after no signings all summer the club won’t be all of a sudden spunking half the £50 odd million from Fofana proceeds on one player. Will be offsetting our huge losses too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or we could have just gone for Traore… Both players would cost more and want way more in wages …. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can’t afford £25m for a decent left footed right winger a position we desperately need then we are in deep deep trouble. This club stinks at the minute.

And when it all goes wrong, don’t blame it on Rodgers, don’t blame it on Rudkin, don’t blame it on deadlines, blame it on the Boga. He just can’t, he just can’t, he just can’t, control his feet…. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, but the simple solution to all of this is you sign an actual right winger who CAN play on the left, not the other way around. Then if Barnes is injured they move to the left and Maddison or Ayo play on the right. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes more and more sense, we have Perez and albrighton on the right, then Barnes and him on the left. It’s bargain basement but we have no choice. Lookman was always the one we'd of hoped to bring in so that’s depressing in itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also we still scored goals last season, even though it isn't Maddison's preferred position he still has a good assist and goal return from there. As it looks like we will still have youri too.

copunk Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 Granted he looks like a right footed LW, but I think everyone is so fixed on the inverted type wingers in today's game it clouds alot of folks judgements Personally reckon he will do well, we have been crying out for another winger who is quick and looks to take his man on, granted it may not work out every time but at least he looks like he will cause problems down the right side and get us up the pitch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many topics and posters have highlighted the financial situation we’re in (large part Covid) but we bought and didn’t sell last year, which turns out was a disaster. The last thing you do is double down on your losses, thankfully the club are being careful. We need players but have to cut our cloth accordingly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 Di Marzio on Sky sports news saying this deal is heavily dependent on Praet going back to Italy. So a case of one in one out.

MalletFox Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 It’s quite possibly been said in previous pages, but is this guy available because Lookman has taken his place at Atalanta? Please Lord, tell me this isn’t the case! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm a numbers man but stop pulling pissers chaps. We're told we don't need or want to sell Fofana this summer. We weren't aggressively pushing others out to raise funds either but eventually we've sold Fofana and then all the money less sell on and loyalty bonuses suddenly isn't available? That's not trading like Top suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Shire Fox Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 (edited) Hoping its a loan rather then permenant but i think he will be decent for us tbh. Lookmans stats werent great when we signed him and he turned out to be decent. We need someone with pace and who can dribble and he ticks them boxes. Clearly shown quality at his time at Sassulo so hopefully he’ll find that form again Edited 1 September 2022 by South Shire Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 I'm resigned to this happening now, I'll finally do some research on him to try and stomach the horrible seasons he's had pre and post 2019/20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate Teapot Posted 1 September 2022 Share Posted 1 September 2022 It'll be a loan with an obligation to buy so expect him to go missing in march when he gets close to triggering it. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
