Sevilla won't have planned to sell him, so that is probably a fair enough price that could persuade them to change their mind. If UE wants him that is good enough for me. If he gives us 2 or 3 good years, that will likely look a bargain imo. Yea I don’t follow the if it’s good enough for Emery line. players must have a resale value we don’t earn enough money and we already have two left backs in their 30’s. you have to plan for the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as a squad then yes i agree. Sometimes we will buy older players. Sometimes young. Sometimes bring through our own . Maybe he likes older players in defence with experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acuna can easily have a few years of very high level football in him. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerCollins29 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Coutinho and Digne both potentially being offloaded, for me, means a very exciting end to the window. Zaniolo Acuna Felix/Torres A cb? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Chelsea et al They might well pull it off this year with the profile of player they are buying. Obviously I hope they crash and burn horrifically. Also, every time I see Chelsea on this thread, I keep reading Chiesa. Wishful thinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes if The Premier League retains its place in the top 2 of the European coefficient we get the extra place. I can’t see us taking any spending risk - doesn’t seem to be our way.
