Bayern want about €40m apparently and the move to Inter has fallen through as they only want to pay €30m. RB/CB. hybrid. 27 y.o. He's pretty tall so works for the posters on here with a fetish for that. He is someone who crossed my mind earlier in the window and he would be an upgrade on Cash for sure, but I read recently that Man Utd and Arsenal were battling for his signature. So probably an unlikely signing for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised he’s only 27… there would be stiff competition I would think but it would be a great signing… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich192 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 (edited) If Pavard goes anywhere, it’s Inter. However Tuchel said last night that he’s decided he wants to keep him for the season, even if it means he leaves on a free at the end of the season.

Cause he was one of the most limited players to pull the shirt on over the last 10 years that’s why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, some people really don't know how to appreciate hard working players, do they? We were a relegated mess when he arrived and he was one of the more consistent, reliable members of our defence as we tried to turn years of downhill struggle around. Of course he wasn't as good as the talented individuals we are lucky enough to have at the club right now, but that doesn't mean you should be crapping all over his efforts in those difficult times. Like a player at the club you support, or not, your opinion is fine, but show some respect to our players, past and present! 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed like a nice bloke/good club man and he may well have been giving 100% all of the time, but I'm with thabucks, I don't remember him being great for us, particularly towards the end of his spell (can't properly remember - did he have a bad injury?). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok Without going off topic his cowards tackle on Coleman was no better than Ben Mee who gets pelters on here. And the notion he was hardworking is pretty laughable. All I said he was a very limited footballer which is true. Edited August 19, 2023 by thabucks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacketspuds Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 If Che Adams goes to Everton, I wonder if Southampton will make a move for Archer. They will have raised £130m from player sales and will need a striker. They like signing younger players and Archer has excellent Championship experience. Makes a lot of sense in my tiny brain. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy thing being archer would be a better option for Everton... Adams is utter gash, can you imagine being an Everton fan years of underachievement followed by years of circling the drain because of a terrible transfer policy only for your club to go chasing a striker who just got relegated with a 1 goal in 5 strike rate 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STO Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 I agree about Adams. Not a great player, whereas Archer has pace and movement, he's busy and likes to be in the box, pulling defenders around. Just in the last few weeks, working under Unai Emery will have made him a better player. 15m plus add ons and I reckon we might do a deal as long as there is a buy back clause.
