Puzzled by this. I love Lamela's attitude and tenacity but with his injury record he can't be relied on. There was some info the other day saying Poch likes a small squad. We therefore can't afford to have players that are intermittently available.
There was also some info that poch loves Lamela and even prefers him to moura can’t remember which itk that came from

But it's also been said that Lamela is a favourite of Poch. Also, Poch always said we need more players who can do things between the lines, and Lamela is one of the only ones we have in the squad who can do that. So I can see why Poch wants to keep him. The caveat to all that is his injury problems, for me he gets one more season, if it's a write off again, we 100% need to get rid.

The Foyth thing only make sense if he's a back up RB, but I can't imagine him being first choice there, that would be weird.

Puzzled by the "all 3 right backs" info. Why give KWP a new contract? Why not go for AWB if that's the case??

How many years ago where those Jansen goals and how many has he got since?

Clubs aren't going going to be lining up for him.

IF Foyth is going to be played at RB then surely we'd need another CB. Maybe i guess it depends on if we sell any of our current RB's or not.

Re: Dragon1's info and the parts that seem puzzling (e.g. Janssen not being available on the cheap despite his contract beginning to run down and clearly not being a player Poch wants to play / Foyth being considered as a mainstay RB option etc) - I'd just apply old adage of taking this info with an appropriate pinch of salt, the same as I would with any ITK post aside from JJ's.

i never remember if dragon1 is allowed in here since hes not as itk as he once was, feel free to delete
dragon1: Lamela is not for sale , three right backs all are though , foyth will be one of the right backs next season and we are in market for another , Jansen willl not be leaving for 5 million ! He’s an international who scored bundles in Holland no team wil, get much change from 20 for him

some of that must be opinion, as I'm sure there was talk of Janssen going for 10m last season

If we value Janssen as a £20M International player hopefully we'll treat him like one and give him some playing time.

The VISA links are interesting, especially as we've got a no-cash stadium.

A fit Lamela quality player is 50 mil in this market. If he wants to stay then selling him makes even less sense than keeping him. I'd be gutted if we sold him.

I'm open to selling any 2 of the 3 RBs as long as get a better one in.
