Double Dutch in defense with Te Wierik and Van Der Hoorn. Van Der Hoorny in defense And Waghorny up front. I'd want to sign him just so we can chant "We've got der Hoorn/Mike van der Hoorn" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RammingStone66 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 If there is nothing to spend then I wonder what the plan is? I'm lead to believe that loans these days tend to come with having to pay a loan fee too, so is the plan a couple of cheap loans, maybe a free agent and hoping to god some of the current u23s step up?

sage Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I'd like to see us keep an eye on Ejaria's situation at Reading. As I understand it, they have an obligation to buy him at the end of the loan period. Now this make s me think two things, the fee can't be too much (i.e. below £5m) and if they are struggling to pay it,we could help them out. He would massively improve us.

Fresh blood needs to come in but we need to keep a core of players who know how we play. Some players will need to find new projects.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also said the club comes first. Testing times ahead. I suppose it makes sense, cut the tea ladies wage by 20% then go and spend 5 million on a defender probably isnt the greatest thing to do.

We could do with this kind of nuisance player but my gut says we can spend 2.1 million better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 6 hours ago, Ghost of Clough said: Very unrealistic. Fozzy won't be used at CB unless we have another injury crisis - Wisdom, te Wierik, Evans, Davies, new CB, and possibly Bielik will all be ahead of him. He's battling with Lowe for a starting spot at LB. I'm unsure why you'd drop him the 3rd choice just because he's an emergency CB. You keep him at LB until we reach the crisis point at CB, then get someone else to cover LB (such as Buchanan). Out of all of the centre back options you mention not one is left footed so we have no first choice or back up option for left centre back, Forysth imo will be the back up, Clarke appears to be our main choice for first choice left centre back. Cocu himself has mentioned Forysth as a centre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its at times like this, I cheer myself up with a couple of episodes of Sunderland Till I Die. That for me, shed a real light on football club excess. ?

I can think of plenty of amazing CB pairings where both had same dominant foot. ??♂️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
