We want to get in the top 8 and challenge for cups. That requires strength in depth in all areas. Having him, Mings, Konza, Chambers and potentially one other is a strong group to do that. We need a competitive squad if we are to break into Europe. That means four quality centre backs. Mings isn’t going anywhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I do find it amusing Gerrard has explicitly said we need more experienced senior players in the squad and then get annoyed when we're linked with experienced players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delphinho123 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Interesting that Sevilla conceded the fewest goals in La Liga last season. That has to be worth something and Carlos must be a reason behind that...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Can’t believe people are turning their noses up at this but not Tarkowski - we could conceivably sign both 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can rotate Chambers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustibrooks Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 £26 mill for him? We are starting to become quite good at finding opportunities to sign quality players for less eh? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomaszk Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Him and Tarkowski would be incredible. Him and Mings would be much more solid that what we've had. Played in Portugal, France and Spain. Wonder if he can speak English? Be handy and add to this if he could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Sounds like a massive upgrade. Plus it will trigger Newcastle fans. Do it. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
