Going on latest info, here is your thread.
The lad clearly has something and huge potential. Hopefully putting him in the back line playing in PL will give him and us a boostWill share what I put in the ITK thread:
I watched a fair bit of Lacroix a couple of seasons ago when he was very good. He's more of a RCB, could potentially play CCB in a back 3. Pretty quick and good on the ball but not amazing aerially.
His form has dropped off a cliff the past season or so and I don't know why. I haven't watched him in recent times but I'm not sure I'd sign him at the moment. Bringing in a young CB who has lost form and putting him in to our unstable defensive environment is a recipe for disaster.
We aint solving our problems in January we'll still have many more to address in the summer but if we can get this kid now it will be an upgrade on what we have, then get a more experienced leader to play alongside Lacroix and Romero with Porro Udogie with new keeper behind next season is a shitload better than what we have nowI agree with the consensus, I don't see him as the answer for our problems right now. Very much a gamble. NDicka would be a much better option.
Could be that we realise our LCB targets are still not currently available, and this would still help us out, especially if we were able to move Sanchez on.
Sounds like he's ahead of the curve for our squad.His form has dropped off a cliff the past season or so and I don't know why.
Tosin is one to keep an eye on imo.Agreed. The kicker is that Sanchez's contract has 1 year left this Summer (I'm sure there may be an option as most players have). But can we get someone in now that can challenge Dier and cover for Romero while moving on or making some money on Sanchez?
I also saw Tosin Adarabioyo is available, he's another one (HG) that I can see helping us now and becoming an improved squad player for the future.
we need a new starting CB to replace Dier but not challenge, apart from Romero all of our CBs should be replacedAgreed.
