Right, hear me out. Having watched Talbi (albeit for just 45 mins) last night, I think he’s definitely better on the left.

Therefore my need to sign a left footed right winger has increased even higher.

With Adingra and Talbi being our left wingers, and us needing a third striker, and us also needing a left winger during AFCON….

I think we need to pivot to a player who’s predominantly a striker but can play left wing.

rather than a left winger who can play striker.

If that makes sense.

not saying that’s why it’s fallen through. Just that if we get a striker who can play left wing, along with a left footed right winger, the balance of our squad will be much better than if Lauriente had signed
 
To me we 100% could have done with him now Mundle is out for a long time
Think we can do better if we really want that position filled. Get me a genuine left winger, not some hybrid jack of all sorts.
 
Plenty time mate to find another. Probably better too if they really think that is a priority for the money. I would have been amazed if he wasnt a bench warmer to be honest. Honestly, if you watch his goals in Seria B loads down to amateur level goalies.

yeh the keeping in those videos was shocking! Remind me never to sign a serie b keeper

You have fried my simple brain with that mind :emoticon-0102-bigsm
 
Oh well. We move on.

It’s a shame, but I think we’ll be fine. I’d actually prefer the money spent elsewhere and us bring in a winger on loan. Once Mundle is fit, 5 wingers would have been too many too keep everyone happy, particularly when we also have cover with Mayenda/Isidor/Le Fee/Aleksic.

Loan in a winger to compete with Adingra on the left wing whilst Talbi and Roberts compete for the right wing.

Put that 20m towards the centre back spend.

That’s one season. He had very solid stats in the Serie A and Ligue 1.

basically I was saying last night we arguably had too many left wingers and not enough players who can play right wing.

Not saying we’ve pulled out but with Talbi looking more like a left winger than a right winger, Lauriente was arguably the wrong profile

That's football transfers for you tho

Nothing was signed yet, it wouldn't have been signed until after the medical so still time for the goal posts to be moved
Shouldn’t be flying him out until everything is properly secured and agreed imo
