Who would you buy? (Part 2)

Yes, I think the general feeling is that the second one was from him being rushed back too soon from the first one.

And his first one was as bad as it was because we were so short at RB (conor out and Gomez still returning to fitness) that we tried to get him to keep going when he’d already felt a tweak. Had we allowed him to come off when it was just tight he’d have probably been ok to play the following week

There were some games (not many, but one or two) when I thought Frimpong actually deserved an extra chance ahead of Bradley. There weren’t many times when both were available.

I would buy a central defender.

i do love this place at times.

What do we make of Felix Nmecha of Dortmund? In case we sell Macca?

Alex Scott of Bournemouth

Is she still playing?

He may even dye his hair black, so we can convince everyone we signed Declan Rice! On a more serious note, he’s a decent player, though I’m not sure if he’d be an upgrade on Mac Allister.

Only 22, I think he will get way better.

At this point. More additions in defence.

The RBs are what they are. Just can’t see Bradley being trusted with respect to his injury record. I like Frimpong but we can’t ignore his defensive frailties.

LB is something we need to reinforce. A backup. Someone from the academy might be ideal. Don’t know who among the lot can be an understudy to Kerkez but that would be the ideal scenario.

CB - assuming Jacquet goes through , we still need one more CB especially if Konate is leaving. Jacquet , Leoni and another CB alongside Virgil (for one more year).

DM - Preferably Wharton.

I’ve mentioned Livramento before and so have others. Injury history aside. He’s someone we should be targetting. Homegrown , ability to play both left and right back.

Frimpong defensive frailties, why, haven’t seen any so far, he has shown to be more than capable.

Just because he is very good as a wing back doesn’t mean he can’t defend!

He’s got some good attributes. But there’s still a question mark imo.

From you watching or listening to pundits who only comment on his previous club position, predominantly being a wing back, he has been sound for us in a traditional full back position.

It would be funny to go back to Newcastle after all of the Isak drama.

Yeah I’d avoid them. If we are after Wharton we get on it now not a week before whatever fuckwit chops says.
