Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Somma was a class act, such a shame his career was derailed due to injury. A proper natural finisher, had he stayed fit we may have struggled to hold onto him

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Have to say even though this transfer window has been low-key so far, signing Chelsea young players on loan that usually end up at the likes of Brentford is impressive
Can we have Hazard as our marquee loan signing please my god I would wet myself at the prospect of watching him play for Leeds. A visit to Boots for the essential attire would be a must

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
I was never really happy with that signing either Leon tbh, only really seemed to be signed based on a good run of form 10 goals in 12 games before signing for us, his goalscoring record has never really been very impressive.

We have a habit of bringing in players who are not enough for the championship

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Blackman will be a huge boost to our defence, a commanding keeper to gobble up crosses will help our defence settle, Douglas too, I really hope he will instill some fight and confidence in players around him.
Just hope we are looking for a cb to at least replace Pennington.

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Thought his positioning was suspect, and seemed a little slow to react once or twice. Maybe early day jitters but something to keep an eye on. Should be an upgrade on Weidwald, not sure he's an upgrade on BPFdezzy wrote: ↑Sun Jul 29, 2018 9:48 am Blackman will be a huge boost to our defence, a commanding keeper to gobble up crosses will help our defence settle, Douglas too, I really hope he will instill some fight and confidence in players around him.

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Agree here. Also wasn't great coming for crosses tbh. Hopefully it was just unfamiliarity with his defence and it'll improve with game time.
Shaughnessy back in training. If he can improve on last season he'd definitely be a good option for the defensive mid role. 6'3" as well.
Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Updated to include arrival of Patrick Bamford, and (I might be getting ahead of myself here, as not yet announced on official site) departures of Ronaldo Vieira and Hadi Sacko.

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
O'Kane, Ekuban, Anita, Ideguchi ?
Ideguchi provides cover if we don't get another midfielder and can't complain about making a name in U-23s
Anita - will have to stay until Xmas due to injury
O'Kane - obviously not in plans and can't see him in U23s - move to happen?
Ekuban - could play in U23s - surprised he hasn't gone out on loan already

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Bielsa spoke about u23 keeper Will Huffer in his presser today, so I presume he's above Miazek in the order?

Re: LUFC Squad 2018-19
Blackman
BPF
Will Huffer
Kamil Miazek,
Dimitar Sheytanov
Harrison Male
I'd imagine, we're not short of young keepers..Thought Male did well recently and I'd have also thought once acclimatized Sheytanov will be the number 3 choice..
