Juventus apparently interested but don't seem to be able to afford him. Read that Arsenal want him. Lets get him! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locatelli, Aouar, Odegaard, Maddison. I bet Smith Rowe will be delighted he’s sticking around if they get some of those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CVByrne Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 17 minutes ago, RichiBoi11 said: Again you're still leaving left back short in that case and relying on Targett never getting injured or suspended whilst Young deputises at right back. For the cash you'd get I really don't see the point in selling Guilbert. He's good back up until Kesler returns next summer hopefully ready to push Cash. If Cash and Targett are both injured we'd play a back 4 of Axel, Konsa, Mings and Young. So we've cover for both full backs being injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul514 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 So Jacks gone, all confirmed. I feel sad we have lost a player capable of anything at any moment, but we can be a better side without him by improving the other positions to make up for it.

So we've cover for both full backs being injured What if you have an injury crisis like Liverpool did at centre back last season? You should have at least 2 players per position, especially with the squad sizes. Having less than 8 defenders is asking for trouble. It's just not worth the risk. It'd be a different story if you were going to bank big money for Guilbert, but we wouldn't. Might as well keep him as a solid back up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I really like Axel he was not great at RB when Bruce played him there - remember when Axel was at RB and Jedi was at CB? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippo Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 We've tended to get our UK based signings in pretty quick. I'm wondering if the next "Biggie" will come from overseas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KAZZAM Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 I'm desperate for an out and out DCM(Kamara,Sarr,Guimares,Bissouma) and for me JWP isnt that however i am a big fan of JWP. Pulisic would be sick on our left if were talking Left sided players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean yeh its a little ambitious but Chelsea will line up with Werner -Lukaku - Havertz next season with Ziyech and Hudson odoi as back up. Chelsea might be tempted to cash in on Pulisic if we offered 40 mill odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
