MPH Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 I imagine it will be a loan with option to buy. I’d be surprised if we have the cash to go for it this summer considering we still want a RW and striker situation sorting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuch Me Moore Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 (edited) If this does happen and we get a direct style, exciting winger aswell! 🤩 I'm all for the HMS Piss the League to be honest!! Edited 16 August 2023 by Fuch Me Moore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackneyfox Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 2 hours ago, James_lcfc said: You are right as to why we signed him of course, I just don't think it was a necessary trade off personally. Coady wasn't wanted by TWO bottom half PL teams, which at least suggests his ceiling and resale value is pretty low. Surely we should be giving a little thought to next season and possible promotion? If you assemble a squad that is exceptional at this level, you shouldn't need 'leaders'. Players like Faes, Dewsbury-Hall and Winks should be able to provide some of this anyway. Honestly feel like we are a RW away from a very good team at this level. Don't get me wrong though, I like Coady, I am only talking about if we can/could only sign one of the two. Bit of a pointless discussion as we didn't know that THB would be availabl for loan let alone to purhase when we signed Coady. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sideshow Faes Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 1 hour ago, ALC Fox said: Loan with obligation to buy upon promotion might be acceptable to Man City. I'd have thought the Enzo factor will mean we're first choice for the player, it's just convincing Man City that our offer is the best. Leeds and, to a larger extent, Southampton might be more able to offer a permanent transfer right now which Man City might be more amenable to. If we can quickly line up a deal for Faes, Soumare, Castagne, Daka or Souttar then maybe we can be persuaded to cough up now as well. Not Faes. Why would we want to sell the division's best defender?

FoxyJim1987 Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 All over everything that Leeds want him permanently. We will have to move fast and be very persuasive to get this done, but imagine a back 3 of Faes Coady and Hardwood Bellis with Doyle and Vestergaard, Justin as back up.

He only has a year left on his Man City contract and believe they still wanted around £15-20 mill to sign him which presumably put Burnley off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrickyTrevLeftPeg Posted 16 August 2023 Share Posted 16 August 2023 This would be a shrewd signing if we were championship or premier league. Go get it done. Would be a rock at the back for years to come or sell on for big money later down the line. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnley gambled last year, and they’re still a fairly modest club so they have to be careful. Unfortunately for them, as soon as Kompany shows an ability to manage in the PL, he will be gone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only included his name in that list because there are rumours that Galatasaray want him. If he kicks up a fuss and leaves then that could be one way of being able to put in a bid for Harwood-Bellis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
