Apparently Guehi was Howe's pick so they made him think they tried while going after Mitchell's target all along.
Feels an awful lot like all this CB noise is just made up. I didn’t realise how bollocksed we are if this is the pattern in windows. Ages of defenders at end of 23/24 season: Trippier 34 Schar 33 Burn 33 Lascelles 31 Krafth 30 And all five’s contracts expire summer 2025 (along with Wilson, Longstaff, 3 sub GKs and Joe White). So I know Mitchell is supposedly all transfers. Who’s in charge of the whole squad management thing?
I suspect you mean “allegedly” rather than apparently. I made the mistake of looking at X/Twitter recently too.
I seriously hope we're looking elsewhere for a centre back - the only way to stop the stupidity of Parish is to not feed him.
Defenders can have some of their best years in their early 30s, if they were all John Ruddy's age this would be an issue, but Schar and Burn haven't lost anything really. Plus that list nicely omits Botman and Hall.
Not a chance in hell this is happening. Happy where he is, in the CL, valued by Alonso. What’s he going to do, up sticks to compete in the League Cup under Eddie Howe?!!! Why are we constantly going at players we can’t get? I remember the days of Alan Carr when he’d fly totally under the radar, get firm indication that both club and player were willing to do a deal and we’d get it done. We even seemed to be doing that under Nickson. But it weirdly seems that ever since Howe promoted his nephew things have gone steadily backwards.
Tapsoba & Disasi are overrated donkeys If were gonna buy a CB from Leverkusen Piero Hincapié is the one we should be after.
