I don't think there's much to it but I can see the logic behind the suggestion. If it was true you would just play a team of 18 year olds in it and not worry about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burchy Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 I think Emery will be a big pull for players as ultimately he makes players better and that won’t go unnoticed by some. Obviously some players will be driven by just money but others will see the whole package, a club on the up, awesome coach and a family feel and atmosphere, great facilities and also the cash to go with it all as well. We’re an attractive proposition for anyone outside the elite players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Would be pretty interested to see us take a punt on Emil Holm from Spezia. 23 years old, 6ft 3 RB who is really really quick, great engine, has a great shot and a fantastic attitude. He's gone from the IFK Göteborg bench to Denmark to Spezia in Serie A to being a starter for Sweden and being linked to Juventus in about 2 seasons. Would not cost a lot or be on big wages. And he's nicknamed The Moose That is if we plan to have Cash as the starting option and not go out and spend big on a RB Edit: Edited May 20, 2023 by sne 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he's nicknamed The Moose That is if we plan to have Cash as the starting option and not go out and spend big on a RB I could see both our starting fullbacks from last year being in jeopardy of being sold given Moreno’s purchase and the adaptation of the RB role. We could therefore be in a position, perhaps not this Summer window, but Jan or next summer, cashing in on Cash and bringing in another, perhaps younger, RB option.

duke313 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 Wouldn’t anyone take Firmino on a free? I know ex-Liverpool players were a thing under Gerrard, and he’s over 30 and probably looking high wages. But a younger Firmino would be perfect in that deeper striker role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won't necessarily want a guaranteed starting place, bags of class and experience. Yes it's only short term, but we need a back up striker. Would leave us with Ollie, him and one of Duran/Archer Edit: oh and it fulfils the important criterion of signing players that score/play well against us Edited May 20, 2023 by one_ian_taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think he'd be a good squad option - he's a link man, comfortable in possession and advancing the play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
