      Can't see why we wouldn't sign him on a short term deal if his wages aren't too high, he'd be coming on a bosman so we wouldn't have to pay a fee for him. We paid about £5M for a 31 y/o Ragnar Klavan a few years ago to do a similar job

      I agree, a short term deal until the youngsters are ready would make good sense to me.

      David Alaba could be a smart signing, he’s set to leave Bayern and he is natural at LB, CB and CM. For a team that needs cover at left back, another option at CB and bit of a boost to midfield, he’s a good option IMO.

      We won't be signing any 33 year old players mate get real.

      We only extended Milly's contract because the man is a physical freak.

      Klopp signed Caulker on loan for the period  we needed another option and used Klavan in the same way too. I don't find it odd to sign a 33 year old if he fits the bill and is happy to do so. I suspect we would give him a one-year contract or something like that.

      I believe he was earning 100k p/w at Spurs which is the same as what Lovren was earning here, so if we're able to get him for a year or two on the same wage then we'd have upgraded our 4th choice centre half and made a tidy profit on top.

      My only worry (if there is any interest from our side) is that the likes of United, who are desperate for a CB at the minute, could probably blow us out of the water and offer him a lot more than we would. Just hope that the opportunity of ending his career with a swansong & potentially winning a few titles is more attractive to him than one last bumper payday

      Man City are a joke. They are really turning football into a joke. 41M? They are mad.

      Apparently we have bid £9m for Aissa Mandi of Real Betis as a replacement for Lovren.

      Never heard of him but supposed to be highly rated by Betis fans.

      Not heard of him but I can’t see him being that highly rated if he’s sold for 9mill when his release clause is 30mill.

      Only a year left on his contract maybe he wants to move on.

      Either way this type of deal makes sense as the fee and wages will be low enough.

      Think depends on his quality if it makes sense or not.

      Just seen he is Algerian, are we likely to sign another African player? I know the African Nations isn’t taking place next season but the year after it will, which means we’d have another player missing.
      It’s not a big thing for the next year but I think it could play a part.

      Surely we have enough money to go for someone like Lloyd Kelly, FFS how can we be this skint that we need to shop at F***ing poundland whilst every other rival is strengthening????

      I read PSG would bekeen to sign Matip. If we get a good sum of monye for him, I think we should sell him. He's too injury-prone. If we can get something like 35M, it's more than enough to get a decent CB to replace him.

      Don't get me wrong, Matip is a very good CB but we cannot rely on him and if PSG wants to give us a big sum for him, I think we should take it.

      Agreed.

      I like Joel he's a very good CB when fit but he has always struggled with the physicality of the PL. If we got a decent fee and a stronger CB was available to sign I think it would make sense to sell.
