I mean the defence still looks undercooked in that scenario. CB is too important a position to try and skimp it on the cheap.
I mean the defence still looks undercooked in that scenario. CB is too important a position to try and skimp it on the cheap.Experienced CB. Not really sure on the other positives. Maybe the plan is to let Binks go on loan and hopefully develop and have him on a backup for a year? Maybe save money here to spend elsewhere on the squad?
After all, you’d have Thomas, Kitching, Lati and Bauer as your choices in order and then maybe Binks comes back next year to replace Bauer?
Yeah I’m not a huge fan of it. Trying more to understand it than justify if that makes sense.I mean the defence still looks undercooked in that scenario. CB is too important a position to try and skimp it on the cheap.
Personally I think we need better than Lati. Why bring in someone that isn't as good as someone who isn't good enough?Experienced CB. Not really sure on the other positives.

Plus if we are a bit less rigid in shape, and change or start games with the back three, could be a good option down the centre?

We get it you don't like him. But he has yet to do anything to validate that opinion. In fact he has probably spent more on transfers than we have made to date.Stinks of a Bling money saving masterclass
Do you think Bauer would be a good signing?We get it you don't like him. But he has yet to do anything to validate that opinion. In fact he has probably spent more on transfers than we have made to date.
More likely to be MVE especially as Wright isn't fit to start the season. Would he even pass a medical?
Doesn’t look like a great signing if true. Feel like a loan signing would be a better option especially if it is just for the yearWe get it you don't like him. But he has yet to do anything to validate that opinion. In fact he has probably spent more on transfers than we have made to date.
Their fans thought he would end up in L1. Its an atrocious signing. He's a bog standard championship CB who has played 12 games in 3 years, I just dont get it.Doesn’t look like a great signing if true. Feel like a loan signing would be a better option especially if it is just for the year

PB & Released by his club this week doesn't fill me with a lot of hope.It might not be him yet

Yeah I know I’m normally quite positive and willing to support the process. But this signing (if him) is more reminiscent of the Sisu bargain basement days. Don’t get me wrong as seems Lampard wants him based on the mesg and he clearly knows more than me, but I don’t see itTheir fans thought he would end up in L1. Its an atrocious signing.

not been released has he?Bamford?
Im totally baffled tooAm I reading this right? This guy hasn’t played regularly since 2021?
They literally said he had been released this weekI'd suspect it's bamford more than the CB.
Either way the CB will be filling a back up role for a season perhaps, Binks might be out the door on loan. Hope we keep Lati.
The CB news just sounded agent like to me. Atleast the Bamford rumours came from a reasonable source, aka BBC and sky sports.They literally said he had been released this week
There’s been posts in this thread about 3 pages ago from people saying they’ve heard the CB is done.The CB news just sounded agent like to me. Atleast the Bamford rumours came from a reasonable source, aka BBC and sky sports.
Must have missed that, sorry if that's the case.There’s been posts in this thread about 3 pages ago from people saying they’ve heard the CB is done.
It hasn't happened before so why would it happen now?Stinks of a Bling money saving masterclass
Signings like this make me think its unlikely we have funds for any significant output.Curiously if it is a case of limited funds, would we rather have more funds allocated towards the RW/ST E.G. Bertaccini and Bauer or the opposite?
Difficult question.Curiously if it is a case of limited funds, would we rather have more funds allocated towards the RW/ST E.G. Bertaccini and Bauer or the opposite?
Why would we want to sign Bauer makes no sense as a signing?
