I hope not.

It’s a strong NO from me. Get Lavia and go and get another midfielder, whether that’s Caicedo, Manu Kone, Florentino Luís or whoever. But certainly not Kalvin Phillips who turns 28 in a few months and is reportedly a poor trainer.

Not a chance, all of the names bar Lavia are bound to be smokescreens. Would Lavia join if he knew we were buying someone else to compete with him?
For me he is good enough and will rapidly improve with coaching, and whilst there may be the odd mistake during his evolution, he looks to have all of the necessary ingredients to be a top player.

Marcus Llorente that ed002 told us about doesn't sound as a bad of an option now ?.

That’s a downer.

That would be so underwhelming if true. Keeping Fabinho would have been much better.

We can only hope it's not true that Calvin Phillips is the replacement. I know Ed02 you rightly scold fans for slating players that haven't even arrived yet and I usually don't. Mostly because I like the players we are linked with but Calvin Phillips is a bridge too far for me. Would be a massive mistake. Hope we do not turn to him.

{Ed002's Note - Kalvin Phillips (DM) Do not rule out Manchester City letting Kalvin Phillips go as they have an upgared in mind to replace him. He has been offered around and Liverpool may well be keen as Klopp is a known fan - but I cannot see him as a preferred option. Newcastle may provide a woildcard option. Aston Villa or West Ham may provide a wildcard option.}

Can someone explain this lavia hype? Is he so much better than Baj?
Fab leaves then experienced dm for me.

Please God, NO, just no! There have been Redmen, there are Redmen and there will be Redmen but KP is never and will never be anywhere near - I just hope that he goes elsewhere!

{Ed001's Note - it would be akin to the signing of Poulsen.}

Lavia is being considered alongside Phillips.

Phillips shouldn’t even be in the conversation. Too injury prone, too overweight, poor defensively, slow to react to danger.

Who would you suggest Viktor? Is anyone good enough?
