Think Alonso is pushing for Ramon if we sell another CB.

Sarr I just don't have a full opinion on from my limited viewing. Seems he like lacks the aggressiveness you want in a CB in the Prem. 6'4 and has a worse aerial % than the midget Lisandro Martinez.

Anselmino the same. Looks very soft.

Badiashile can just f**k off.

Disasi will likely go.

Tosin is 50/50.

Not sure I agree re Anselmino .

From what is being rumoured, yes I know, Badiashille is very likely to go and a deal has been agreed with Disasi to go to WHU but at this time his agents are trying to get him a deal with a PL club.

Tosin I agree is 50% .

Add to the mix Sarr who did ok when he played & of course Fofana who I personally would be happy to see gone.

Let’s assume that we do go with 3CB we have I guess on Colwill, Josh, Hato & maybe Reece but I think we need two a

Edit. Forgot Challobah who I think is almost certainly off

Maybe we should take a pass on spending a fortune on this bloke and sign John Stones on a FREE?

I did wonder about that yesterday when they mentioned he was out of contract. But he's not someone you'd want to stick into the starting 11 going forward to be a permanent partner for Colwill. He's more of an experienced head who would come in here and there. Still, I'd sign him if the wages were ok.

Well, you know what you are getting with Stones[32]. I mean he has tonnes of experience and our team/squad needs that. He is nowhere near a Thiago Silva type of player - but who is? But he could step into our squad for a couple of years and help our CBs lurn the game. We have a whole bunch of amazing young Cbs - adding another 50 million quid French bloke who might be a little mediocre after all (we are not sure about him are we?). Feeling 'risk' adverse and Lacroix? meh, not certain about him.

Wouldnt be surprised to see Stones return to Everton on a free, if they can afford his wages.

I'm also a little surprised that de Zerbi hasn't been sniffing around as his Dunk of the Lane.

These charlatans have been here for 4 or 5 years now and they are still clearing out unwanted players ffs.

What hijack? We haven't even made a bid have we. All that is being hijacked is unsubstantiated gossip by Younes and his mates.

Sounds like we are heading into one of our bidding wars. The sky might not be the limit.

    Not only Liverpool but now Arsenal want him (Saliba out for 8 months)

    Arsenal want Konsa, though you do wonder why when they have like 6 CBs. Think Palace is trying to run up his transfer fee.

    Probably the same reason we want a new centre back when we already have 25 ... 😎

    Ok I'm exaggerating a bit, but it is at least 10 !

    Colwill, Chalobah, Adarabioyo, Disasi, Badiashile, Fofana, Hato, Sarr, Anselmino, Acheampong

    Lacroix after that first half?

    Tournament football. Funny cos I don't normally like Henderson but watching this game and I'm rationalising us going in for him
