Nothing appears likely at this point… there are 2-3 available, at least… we need decent offers to come in but… Activity tends to heat up toward the end of windows anyway but… we need to time to bring in replacements (hopefully lined up) if we really/actually are employing a one in, one out policy… As usual, we just have to wait and see… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Tbh, a lot of our defensive issues would ease if you could bring in a RB, Konsa back at CB and manage to sell Chambers/Traore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A RB has to be a priority. Especially when you look at how dangerous we are down the left with Digne/Alex Moreno. We need that down the right.

DJBOB Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 RB please. I can’t do anymore Konsa-Diego on the right. Konsa is a great defender but he’s a CB. This is, almost to a scary deja vu level, the same problem when we played Cuellar at RB. When we played a back 3 with Mings, Konsa, Hause. Centerbacks will naturally get too narrow. It is their instinct. We need another RB so Unai can feel comfortable rotating Cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayern & Citeh have also played with CB as FB to great success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we’re doing Konsa and the team a disservice because that is not his best position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Kosta Nedeljković? Well we have been asking for a big name signing 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 That player is already playing first team football for Red Star Belgrade and has been playing in the Champions League for them. He wouldn't be playing in our academy. Also we already have Triston Rowe playing rightback, one of the highest rated players in our academy at the moment 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Something that's been left ignored other than by me, is that Emery did say at his press conference, that if Traore and Chambers go then it's possible we will could bring in some project players to replace them, he didn't use those exact same words, but it's what he implied. So think a signing like this is possible and guess what he could be viewed as Chambers replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming it's real he's either loaned now or in the summer imo. Happy to be proven wrong but can't imagine plucking an 18yo from Red Star Belgrade in January that he's the Cash upgrade we've been hoping for to improve us in the run in of this incredible season.

useless Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 And Kesler-Hayden is doing very well, and we will be doing very well as an academy if we can keep producing players as good as him. The point is we aren't singing any more right-backs for our U21s as we already have two very good ones Triston Rowe who has been playing for our U21s since he was an U16, and probably won't be long before he makes the first team bench, and Jayden Barber who is an England U18 international, but mroe importantly Nedeljković if we sign him obviously won't be playing for our U21s, he's already playing first team football and at Champions League level., as I said Emery has already hinted that we will try and replace Chambers and Traore with project players, and if there is any truth to this link, then he could be one such player.

Delphinho123 Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 So random it’s almost got to be true. Playing for Red Star at 17 as a starting right back is some achievement. Must be highly rated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
