all these lazy links based on contract lengths. maddison mount ward prowse there's probably 5 or 6 in other leagues as well.
If we got even a quarter of the number of players we were linked with we'd have almost as big a squad as Chelsea.
Was linked a couple years ago I believe along with few others. Then just not heard anything about him since then
if we are going by who fits then a) free or coming to end of contract b) age c) future value d) wages all come into the thinking Ndika is a 23 year old, french u21 CB who can play LCB, LB, DCM. he absolutely fits the known model we operate on. he will be 24 at start of next season Mount is 24 (since jan) with contract running down. he can play LCM, Cm, no 10, LW., only issue is wages i'm sure there are others like this
James maddison contract expires in 2024. His age is 26 (27 in november) #notonthelist Youri Tielemans out of contract 2023, age is 25 (26 in may) better bloody not be#onthelist
Bit harsh, granted he's not the best - but he came from a team that has other ideas for its FBs. I find it interesting that when we see FBs that are mostly defensive they're condemned for being negative and bringing nothing to the team, yet when they're more attacking then they're condemned for being awful defenders. It's that same old fan dichotomy - if you're not perfect you're ****.
