Lewis Hall would be a massive coup - looks like he'll be a very good LB for years to come. Mad how we are looking like having a class first team and then some really good young players coming through... Isak, Tonali, Botman, Willock, Gordon, Anderson, Miley all easily have 10 years in the take and 4-10 years before they peak! Livarmento and Hall incoming would be insane when looking at the long term. NUFC <23 years old GK Livarmento - CB - Botman - Hall Willock - Tonali - Anderson Gordon - Isak - LW Add to that: Burne (GK), Smith (GK), Ashby, Hackett, McArthur, A. Murphy, Miley, Diallo, Kuol, Minteh... long term vision couldn't be clearer.
I watched quite a bit of Chelsea last season because I was enjoying the Boehly disaster-class of how to run a club so much but Lewis Hall caught my eye albeit while he was definitely a bit shaky in defence, at times for his age he looked a step above with his passing, crossing & technique. I'd actually say his abilities are better suited to playing a role in midfield because his composure and awareness on the ball are so good already at just 18.
Agree he seems to look very good on the ball. He does seem to suit playing higher up the pitch, more than as a traditional LB, but would still be a great addition to the squad. I expect on loan though? He only played an handful of games for them, but you can tell even just from the highlights vid CC posted that he can create chances. If Chelsea had strikers who could actually score last season, then he'd have a fantastic assists per game ratio.
I was at our match away to Soton a couple of years ago, remember thinking Livramento was head and shoulders above the rest of their team, wether that’s saying much I don’t know. I do think he’d be a class buy if he stayed fit.
