Shea Charles - Joined Fulham

[SG90]

I hope he isn't going to be our "big" signing, as we need a playmaker

[Cjay]

Graham now talking up our chances of this deal

Suspect the itk lot have it right again.

[Musicman1965]

Let’s say he signs, and goes straight into the first X1, who’s position does he take?

He can't start in the Prem yet, but he'll warm the bench until he proves his worth.

Why?

We can't be spending this kind of money on bench warmers, they need to be better than what we have.

He would have started in the Premier League had Southampton got promoted.

We had a few "championship players" start in the prem this year. Ampadu springs to mind, Tanaka, Rodon, Gruev too

I think it depends on the set up

I'd like to see us transition to a more attacking 4-2-3-1. That would put him behind Ampadu and Stach in the two DM roles.

But if we play 3 deep midfielders as we often did last season, I could certainly see him starting as the 3rd midfielder

i hope we KEEP to the same formation as last season.

Southampton finished bottom the last two years and likely would've done again

[The Subhuman]

I don't think Southampton's form has anything to do with Charles' ability..

[airedale]

Forest swimming in money will no doubt be in for him now.

TBF, they should

TBF, they should

If we get Brandt maybe stach could play along side amps in a 4 2 31 against the weaker sides 'i reckon saints will want a lot more than we offered for Charles.

[PhoenixUnited]

They've agreed to sell Anderson to Citeh for £116m........

Daily Mail catching up with the itk lot.

Fresh £25mil bid gone in.

[weasel]

Wonder if Soton have to sell before the end of June to comply with PSR for the last 3 seasons.

Daily Mail are often correct with news relating to Leeds transfers.

[Pullhard]

It’s a lot of money for us. Chump change for established clubs of corse.

Recruitment team have a good track record so gotta hope they have this right. A few duds but the hits way outnumber the misses.
