Ed025 what are the plans if any for Holgate next season? If you are aware of any.

Looking for back up in right back means what exactly for Holgate? Moved to centre back?

I have been very impressed with him this season. Imho he is not getting the credit he should be getting. I hope to god he gets a proper chance next season. I know long term he is seen as a centre back. Would love to see him given a chance there next season.

Personally I'd use him along with Williams and Jags. Mori also for that position. I know for different reasons none of these are seen as top class centre halves at the moment. 2 on the wane, one only starting and the other not convincing everybody as yet. Out of these four we are bound to get at least one good centre along with hopefully a signing of a top centre halve.

Imho that would leave us well covered in that position. With Europe we will need those players imo but one additional signing in this position would be enough for me. Would hate to see Holgate disappear into a squad or second team player. He deserves far more in my eyes. For all I know Koeman might rate him highly either.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed025's Note - holgate is seen as a centre back NBTB but is filling in at the moment and for me doing a very good job, he is well thought of by koeman and long term he will become our centre back well thats the plan but the guy is just happy to be part of things at the moment mate..

Wasn't Rahman seriously injured at the afcon?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - Yes. Schalke want to restart his loan to buy deal.}

Rahman is left back how he going to be Coleman's back up?

Agree0 Disagree0

I think if we interested in Rahman it will be as back up / replacement for Baines. Particularly if RK goes with 3 centre halves and wing backs I'm not sure Bainesy has the speed or engine to do that every week. He's never been the same in an attacking sense since Pienaar went.

As regards right back, we have really missed Seamus and need a proper RB as cover. Holgate done okay but his attacking play was very poor on Friday and we lose an awful lot offensively when he plays there.

Think Mason will be a good CB, again potentially best in a 3, but he's not a long term RB.

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed's not really a rumour, but just wanted your insight if possible.

Whats the general feeling around Lookman by the staff now?

He got off to a flyer and then seems to have died off a bit (in terms of minutes on the pitch/ chances)

Cheers,
Joe.

{Ed025's Note - he was bought as one for the future joe and although RK threw him in early this season was not the goal, as far as i am aware he was taken out to protect him mate with a view to the future, im sure we will see a bit more of him next season..

13 May 2017 22:56:23
Hope so Ed025. An exciting player.

Agree0 Disagree0

Hopefully he fills out a bit over the next year. I think that is half the battle with him. All the raw ability, but the Premier League is a physical test for any player.

Cheers for the insight Ed.

Did we put a bid in for tielemans ed? I'm hearing he's signed for Monaco which is a shame.
