CB Joe Gomez of liverpool may leave - he is from the same agency as McK and Koop. Maybe?

Sounds like someone we would sign.

- - - Updated - - -

He’s 3rd or 4th choice for LCB or LB, don’t know why Arsenal would want to keep him or he would want to stay.

Their fans seemingly want him to stay. He’s not a terrible option for cheap.

He is terrible, really bad defender, no strength at all, we should avoid

He’s way better than Cabal.

He’s way better than Cabal.

Then I don't even want to know how bad Cabal is. Look im polish and I do watch Kiwior, really hope he improve and becomes important defender for NT but he is just soo unreliable. Maybe as LB he could work, but that's all

Do you watch him for the NT or Arsenal? He wasn’t bad under Motta at Spezia.

It seems like a lot of Poles flop in the Nt.

Fot the NT and some arsenal games, it seems he only did good when playing as defensive LB in both cases.

Greenwood with two goals in 30 minutes for Marseille btw.

Just on footballing ability alone I've always thought he's a really good player

 

[Osman]

It was never about his footballing ability. Fuck the idea of signing him and fuck him in general for the abuser he is off the pitch.


Let Marseille worry about whatever he does on the pitch. It's pathetic to play what if or wish we signed a scumbag like that.



Football is filled with quality players who doesn't give you outright shame just for being associated with them.



P.S I'm not addressing you two btw, but read ligue 1 thread of posters longing for him like he was something to miss for Juve.

If he wasn't a dumbass, he'd probably be one of England's biggest names and highest paid players right now, starring at Manchester United.

It is ok to appreciate footballing talent without wishing that player was here

He was arguably one of the best talents man utd had, more so than Rashford. Would have really challenged Saka to a starting spot for England imo.

If we are just going to try to loan and option everyone, how about Bitshiabu from RB? Good ball playing CB, big dude. He’s not going to play at all because they have Simakan, Orban, Lukeba, and others. Honestly RB has a better squad than we do.

Koopmeiners will soon join Juventus in the next few days.

Aah, made me long for the soon memes era for a sec there.

We haven’t heard that one before.

Is Koop still injured?

RB always has an amazing squad with so much depth. They aren't afraid to player young players across the entire lineup and they put trust in youth basically all the time.

Also, their scouting is basically one of the best in the world. Especially in places like Hungary, Austria, Czech Republic, etc.

My summary is actually pretty accurate, as evidence in the post i just quoted you on where you once again try to play down the risks of purchasing injury prone players as if we haven’t been struggling with it already and that ‘medical screenings’ will surely protect us lol

Even out of that post it's 100% wrong... It specifically said we can not judge that from here; which is basically the only point.

What I am downplaying is the 100% negativity on cases like ACLs or players that have had one injury-loaded season. Also never judge someone on 1 season. Others with constant multiple injuries are probably different in my eyes (Ramsey, Douglas Costa, Pogba,...) but I still dread people judging human beings on medical situations they basically know nothing off.

There are probably as many cases in the positive direction as in the other one. Which makes it gambles. But also why those players usually cost less...
We've even built our last dynasty on a player deemed to old and injury-prone. He was over 30 and stayed fit for like 5 seasons with us.

Lol we made a loan offer for Omorodion from atletico madrid... guess what...

And didn't chelsea almost sign him for 40 mill the other day?

Was about to post it. The 40-50m deal collapsed due to Callagher deal I think and Omorodion and Chelsea didn't agree on salaries I think.


He would be fantastic backup for Vlaho, promising 19 year old gunner, but as you said zero chance they will loan him out lol, only sell for big profit.

Summary: Just as if nothing was said before, no reason to worry about targeting injury prone players because we shouldn’t judge human beings on medical situations, no red flags, no indication of anything, just that some work out while some not, so basically back to what i’ve been saying, you are playing it down and invoking whatever nonsense you can come up with on the spot just to move away from the main point…

Once again, there is no negativity in pointing out the obvious, there is every reason to be concerned about players coming off long injury setbacks, even more so when we’ve been struggling with injury crises for multiple years in a row.
