Always thought he was canny without being great. Could work alongside Lascelles.

 

Yup. Experienced player who knows the league and has worked with Rafa before. Not the most exciting signing but CB signings for squad depth rarely are.

Buying him for money? That's bizarre.

 

£6m for a 29yr old is even more bizarre ( by our standards).

 

Panic at the shitstorm coming their way. Think they can try and appease with this bollocks is fucking laughable.

Considering he's an experienced international and knows the league (probably the language too), it's a far better deal than Marlon that's for sure.

 

Still paper thin in midfield, no left back, no backup right back, no real number 10. Shambles.

 

:thup:

Before he fucked up his career in Swansea, he was a solid performer under Rafa. 6m is a very reasonable price as well. Much better deal than the Marlon one.

 

Great signing.

Still Manquillo imo, who'll also be first choice back up to Dummett at LB. Sterry will play RB if both our full backs are injured or unavailable, as Manquillo plays at LB in that case.

 

Shows just how appalling we are run, utterly woeful and pathetic.

Guest chicken little

guarantee in three years' time we won't be able to sign a centre-half because this guy will still be on the wage bill, having played half a season for the first team.

Problem is Rafa isn't here next season, that's the short termism of this sort of thing. He's probably a serviceable CB, but then when Rafa goes and Lascelles goes with him, we are stuck with him and no doubt he will become a regular.

 

Yeah and we will likely have Sooty and Sweep as Manager and assistant, so is there really much point in worrying/caring?

 

The object should be try to appease Rafa, till we can get shot of Ashley or at least pressure him into providing more financial backing. There should be a big campaign in the run up to the January transfer window really, as it will be the fans last chance to affect Rafa's viewpoint in terms of whether he can achieve his ambitions at this club. He likely wont think so currently and if Ashley doesn't budge what would there be to follow anymore?
