KentVillan Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 28 minutes ago, useless said: That's not a correction, him and Young sometimes swap positions, but on the main Barry is on the left with Young through the middle, it's not as if Barry plays on the left in the first half of games and then through the middle in the second half like you imply. Earlier in the season before Campton Sturridge's injury he was playing through the middle with Barry on the left. Barry also plays on the left for England. If Barry plays for the first team anytime soon it's more likely to be as a wide forward than it is a centre-forward, even if his long term position will probably be as a central striker. Yeah I think the plan is for him to be a goal scoring wide forward - like Salah, Messi, C Ronaldo - playing off a central workhorse. He’ll play central as well, but it seems like this is the plan. Back in the old days he would have been the small, quick one in a front 2, paired up with a big target man, but times have changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 We are a bit full on wingers I guess but like I said last summer, I'd like to see us look at Jens Petter Hauge. I still rate him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read multiple reports which said he is a LW then also read he is a striker … His name has been loosely linked as being a player we are interested in … Im guessing Lancs Live is on a par with BrumLive so no doubt BS….

LW for sure. I just think he's good and he has something about him. Not sure why Milan didn't give him more time on the pitch. He started alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hauge is still young and has time on his side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's had a very good season for AZ but probably needs another season to be PL ready. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 2 selfish hopes for this window, we sign Smith-Rowe and Arsenal bid 80million to buy back Emi Martinez and it gets turned down by club and player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing your friend has been pretty solid with his info. in the past. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is 5'11 like Targett, an inch shorter than cash. 22 and highly rated. Good technique, defensively sound, and quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stegzy Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 4 hours ago, useless said: The academy players from the FAYC team most likely to go out on loan are Kesler, Aaron Ramsey, and Raikhy and Young if we can find them suitable clubs. Then some of the olders ones like Bridge, Dominic Revan, Wright, Archer, Vassilev and maybe Jacob Ramsey depending on who else we sign, will probably be loaned out as well. I think Chukwuemeka and Barry will stay as they will still be seventeen when the season starts, very rare for players to go out on loan at that age. Philogene-Bidace i can see us keeping around and playing in the early rounds of the League Cup, and then reevaluating his situation in January. The thing is with our youth set up now is the u18s that are good enough play for the u23s against much more experienced, and more physically developed players, thus negating the same need to play “mans” football. Chuk is already their physically and I believe he is ready to be integrated into the first team already. Could see it as maybe Barry going out on loan as he has all the skill but would be good to see how he stands up , physically, to the Championship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post thabucks Posted June 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted June 11, 2021 I tend to hear tit bits about poss players we have enquired about or are interested in - mainly European based as he works for an agency. I never get anything too itk anymore as I’m too far removed nowadays and he wouldn’t risk his position either… I don’t want to be ITK nor claim to be and I pass this on with a pinch of salt - so please treat as much 5 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) We already have Emi Martinez in goal so not a position we need to fill. Uğurcan Çakır (Turkey Keeper who plays for Trabzonspor) is a very good keeper. Edited June 11, 2021 by Villan4Life 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
