Rumours picking up of Dean Huijsen coming in alongside Marc Guehi at Centre back next season with Levi Colwill and Josh Achempong competing for starting places. That would be a formidable group of centre backs.

That would mean a lot of CH’s leaving and that could include Colwill.

I think the plan is to keep Colwill Tom, the centre backs to leave would be BB, Disasi, TC to Palace as part of the Guehi deal and Bashir H. Fofana will stay pending his rehab.

Greenaway, I like Guehi but not enough for Chalaboa to be used as a makeweight in any deal with Palace.
Disasi started well at Villa but his cameo for them last night highlighted his issues.

You might get your wish Tom as Guehi is also wanted by Newcastle! Nico Williams and Jamie Gittens also linked as wingers. Would appear the club have at last decided to address the areas we have all seen needing to be improved, keeper, centre back, left winger and a striker. Going to cost 300 million or so but will be off set by player sales to at least that level. I'm hoping it all gets done in time for the club world cup.

Tom i think its needed a clear out at the back, i think we sell disasi, badiashille and tosin, chalobah for good money get huiljsen and geuhi to partner levi and acheampong and fofana
Badiashille and disasi and tosin have not been good enough but are decent players and fofana can't be relied upon but i do think when he's fit he's class our defence fell apart for me when he got injured.

Poch, I can see us selling Badiashille, maybe Tosin and hopefully Disasi.
I think Guehi is a good player but I wouldn’t sell Chalaboa to get him.

Ya but id say it could be a case of selling fofana now to get geuhi tom to be honest, i love fofana but he is a disaster for injuries and maybe a warmer climate and slower paced league might suit his body more.

Poch, maybe but I see that rumours are suggesting a loan for Fofana. I can sort of get that plan as long as we have an option for his potential January return and he isn’t European cup tied.
