If we play those players on the wing then we strip the centre. Whether they could is not at issue. We should be keep them where they are needed. Our midfield is gravenberch or endo Macallister or szoboszlai or Jones Wirtz or szoboszlai or Jones. Strip that attacking option and suddenly you are down to the bare bones and looking for say nyoni to step up. 2 players per position doesn't mean 1 first choice player for 3 positions plus a single cover player for all 3 positions. It cannot. I'm.already not happy with the quality of the likes of endo and Jones anyway but as I said before I am greedy for the best for lfc.
Looks like koumas will go to Birmingham on loan. A dice roll. Chambers will not be sent on loan. He is still not ready and fit. He's had two loans where everyone liked him a lot and he got two injuries that cut them quite short.
We need 1 x #9 1 x winger who can play either side 1 x CB 1 x #6 in that order imo. There is work to do this window still. 9 days and counting.
right now, I’d lob a cheeky bid of £100m in for Alvarez and forget about Isak followed by one for fofana I’d take Guehi but I suspect he’ll come next summer, when we lose Konate - I’m ok with that #6 wharton but I’m not sure tbh, just following the crowd on this one
I'd cheeky bid 60 for alvarez personally. I liked him at city, better than other options bought since but he didn't want to be here and wanted to go to Spain Guehi needs to be done by deadline day. It's OK for now. It's just 2 games but palace have to either sell or accept nothing much in janaury. I expect something to happen but really its down to the palace side. We wont shift and will shrug and move on if he accepts Chelsea or whatever. 35 is good for a midget cb with 12 month left. Asking 45 to 50 when you barely got your 60 for a forward is silly. If the make the conference league group I expect them to then get on with it. Palace should have sold up both and move for new players. They will be bargain bucket shopping on deadline day. Elliott for 15mil plus guehi would do. Lol. Wharton is decent no doubt. The brighton lad is better.
