Geertruida


Downie also says we want a replacement in before this move can happen.
I doubt they're going to be off Geertruidas quality on the last day of the January window.

We are in a bit of danger of looking short in a couple of key areas now. Possibly exiting the window weaker than when we went into it. Nobody expected that.
 
The club have got alot of decisions right this season but this is one is a big mistake. He should be starting weekly for us. I mentioned on the Geertrudia thread 2/3 weeks back that i wouldn’t be suprised to see him leave as i bet he’s pissed off seeing the likes of Hume play ahead of him
Might it not be the case he was never committed hence his u21 appearance and being a unused sub at West Ham yes he's had a lack of game time but maybe there's been a underlying reason for this😮‍💨
 
Big miss squad wise, not a big miss playing wise as we have for the most part, used him as a stop gap.

On the other hand, as talented as he is, he seems to play in medium when he has the capability to play at a high level. It was a horrendous error playing Hume in the position he played in last week instead of him, although now we probably know why.
 
OK then but your wrong, we played poorly a few times where he could have been brought on and wasn't. He also has done well when brought on and dropped straight to the bench again, so from his perspective what has he got to do. RLB played Rigg and he was awful, played Hume and awful, if he can't get on at West ham it aint happening. Why would he want to stay where he is obviously not wanted.
The recent games after Brentford are obviously to do with him deciding he wants away, which other games should he have played and ahead of who?
 
Over to those in charge, they’ve demonstrated they can work very well in the market, have talked about not standing in players ways if the right deal is on the table (this includes price and us bringing in replacements)

As fans cos we have very little information the reactions are understandable we all just want the best for the club and potentially losing a very good player doesn’t align with that view, especially so late in the window.

Time for those in charge to step up again 👍🏻
 
What a f***ing own goal this is from us.

£20 mil for a guy that can play 3 positions

Should have been more involved like.

We aren't losing a player that gets into our first XI in any position.

I really like him and don't want to lose him but we can come out of this in a better position.
 
This is why I don't get Liverpool wanting him. I get Slot knowing him but he is a good squad player for us and that's it
He does exactly the same role for Liverpool that he does for us, but they play a lot more games per season so he ends up playing more minutes. Plus they’re an elite club.

Liverpool have lost there 2 rightbacks. He will play RB for them. Slot had him at Feyenoord. He will no Van Dijk, Gakpo and Gravenberch for the Holland set up. It’s a brilliant move for him and he will do well there
