Popular Post Sly Posted 17 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 17 June 2023 He’s terrible in the air. Loses his men whilst defending. Has to tackle as he hasn’t got the foresight to see and intercept. Gets dragged out of position. Was good as going forward as an inverted fullback. However not on Ricardo levels. He’s okay, however I’ve never been a fan, even when we were playing okay. I’ve said it before but he epitomises the Belgium national team. So much promise, however fails to deliver in key moments. He is a steady 6 out of 10 most weeks and it can’t have been easy playing alongside Amartey and Faes though. For £12m we can re-invest and it would be nice to get his wages off the book. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Belgian international, experience in Italy and European competitions Where were his 6 and 7/10 performances last season. His positional sense is up there with one of the worst I've ever seen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxes_rule1978 Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 Need him off the wage bill and can do with the cash. Sell for anything around 12m looks good to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanSP Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 Weird how he gets linked with Arsenal, then the likes of Bournemouth, and now Juventus Another player that could leave for a better club, like Soyuncu did. Makes you question how he's been utilised here... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose2010 Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 Hopefully a couple actually want him and it drives the price up. Was pretty consistent last year but unfortunately it was a 6/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will1981 Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 Juventus are in a similar financial position to us would be shocked if they payed 15m for Timmy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes - next summer he’ll only have one year left and full back is an area where we have cover. in addition, he has wanted to leave for a while and we will have bids for him in double figures Edited 17 June 2023 by st albans fox 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he was far from the worst in a very low confidence awful defensive unit tbh. He does seem to be beyond salvation after some sub-for some though, which I find a bit strange, a kind of inverse favourite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoareyaaa Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 Gave more than other players during the relegation battle, decent player but has a few pit holes in his performance especially positioning. Best to take the money and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finnegan Posted 17 June 2023 Share Posted 17 June 2023 If we get him off the wage bill and get 15-20 for him this is fantastic business. It also makes the idea that we'd roll over and take 30 or less for Barnes ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post LcFc_Smiv Posted 17 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 17 June 2023 Quite surprised by the response by many on here, happy for him to go but to see him getting slated is a bit far. Think he's done ok for us, always steady away, had glimpses of looking like a real talent, other times he looked like a player in a relegation squad. For me just another player with the stench of the last 24 months all over him, a result of the previous managers lack of management- not his fault and something that he was supposedly very frustrated about himself. Can't agree he didn't seem to care or try either. £15m and his wage of the books would be a sound conclusion. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with pretty much all of this. he's one of our more saleable assets and and anything between 10 and 15 million would be decent enough considering his wages would also go from the books. He's been far from our worst player in the last couple of years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, can see the club going with Ricky, JJ, Thomas and Kristensen with youngsters providing depth incase of injuries… means the £12m doesn’t need to be used for a replacement and go hopefully straight into the kitty.

And im not excusing his poor positioning at times covering the back post 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
