Pretty easy commute from Leicestershire to Bodymoor and he'll be getting plenty of starts here next season as the months go on. Intrigued to see how Unai fits him in but two years back you're talking about one of the best 8s in the league who scored a brilliant goal in the FA cup final so to me it's a no brainer move.

Popular Post Mantis Posted June 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 10, 2023 Tielemans, Kamara and Luiz is Rolls Royce midfield three, and comparatively very young with their best years still ahead of them. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolteExile Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Hmm. These 'no brainer' free transfers aren't so if the new guy gets more than Martinez, Mings, Ramsey, Luiz and Watkins etc. You very quickly have 4-5 players banging on the CEO's door looking for parity at least. So either wage bill banjaxed or a heap of unsettled players. I'd trust if the club have pushed for this one they know what they're doing and Emery is fully on board. He was mentioned as one of the main targets we had last summer (along with Conor Gallagher) so it's prob not a total shot in the dark from that point of view. But your higher wage earners should be amongst your very best players. It's not the case with Digne and Coutinho (post 2018 version we have) and I don't think this bloke comes in as an immediate upgrade for the first team either.

MWARLEY2 Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Finally we have competition for places. Good news. I am sure Emery will get alot out of him . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villarule123 Posted June 10, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted June 10, 2023 He could be a straight swap for Young on the wage bill, guessing they're on similar money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost us about 15 million aswell which is mental as I'd say they're probably all 40 mill+ players 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will keep a wage structure and pay him yearly signing on fees i would guess. Which is fine as our players understand bosman deals. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those three in a 433 sounds mouthwatering tbh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
