DaoDeMings Posted June 18 Share Posted June 18 4 minutes ago, CVByrne said: Article in the Athletic about our Left Back situation and it's a tough one to call. I think though if we sign a Maatsen he is the attacking full back and Digne would be kept due to his experience and leadership. It seems like his determination to stay and win Emery over has both worked and impressed him. He is better defensively and I'd trust him more than others off the bench with a job to do and Emery instructions in his ear. However Moreno, with a full preseason could return to levels of his first 4 months and he is cheaper in terms of PSR. A tough one to decide tbh if we bring a new left back in. Quite a nice problem to have at LB really. Whether it's Digne or Moreno to leave, I don't mind either way, and with a new LB coming in (particularly if it's Maatsen) we'll be upgrading the squad.

I think that's fine for where we are. Last time I checked we haven't won anything since 1997, we are not an elite team. Why don't you tone it down a little, Pissflaps.

pete101 Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Bit confused about the release clause, is it only available to Dortmund? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarryOnVilla Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 We’ve been in talks with him for days. What are we talking about, the drop shadow? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rustibrooks Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 I’d imagine Dortmunds focus might be with buying Sancho again. I can’t see Dortmund spending £80m for both of them. We have to be favourites to get Maatsen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted June 19 Share Posted June 19 Hopefully Terzic leaving Dortmund, them also having to spend big on Sancho and us already dealing with Chelsea for Duran makes this a goer. Would be decent going to lose a back-up player for one that will likely improve the first eleven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
