c1982 Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 Perfect short-term Casemiro replacement in my opinion Only £20m too (or is that pushing it?) Matt and Romey 1878 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fosse Captain Posted August 19, 2022 Report Share Posted August 19, 2022 I’d keep him, still a decent player. Would play him in a 3 and reckon he’d be solid enough. Cornish Steve 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Gana comes in I'd let him go. He's on good wages. Bring in a prospect/cheaper option near deadline day if we need more cover.

He’s a good player, but not one that’s a big miss obviously. chicagoblue and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still got 2-3 years at that level in him. Would only fill gaps for us and likely pick up another injury. Doesn't have the legs for the job in the PL anymore.

Btay Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 We have Doucoure, Garner & Davies as cover. I still think Allan has a bit to offer & would like to see him in this midfield we have going now. However, it’s clear Frank wants a certain level of athleticism/energy in the middle of the park. dunlopp9987, Romey 1878 and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I agree with the sentiment, the reality is that it would take something catastrophic for him to start now. A solid if somewhat slow player doesn't really fit anymore. Good luck to him.

Garry Barry has to be one of the most physically disadvantaged players I have ever seen but he was an excellent player. Merely a comparison as they are two different players. Even Barry though, would have looked horrible in our midfield the last few years with how exposed he would have been.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted September 21, 2022 Report Share Posted September 21, 2022 I am happy either way, he is a very good player, not as fast, but good energy and reading of the game make up for that. Unlikely to start unless there are injuries, but a great insurance policy. In his final year so saving his wages now wont help FFP until next window, I think?

RuffRob Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Transfer wise we seem to have been just as good moving expensive bench player out either permanently or on loan. This squad has a totally different feel to it since summer of 2021. Wage bill wise and player profile wise. There really is something to build on here.

Popular Post Bailey Posted September 25, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 I liked Allan. He had his limitations but he was one of the good guys in a bad bunch.

badaids Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Glad we've got rid as he no longer seemed to fit. But this is a weird transfer. Al Wahda's team is utter shit - he's literally one of only two proper footballers they have, no one in their right mind would want to do this unless it was serious $$$$$$$. Did we get a fee anyone know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Aside finances, we do not want players on £100k a week who aren’t part of the plans. It’s a bad culture creator. Last season we had 5/6 players earning half a million a week who weren’t even contributing. when you have that and you core contributors are on half or even less of that it becomes an issue. Allan was a good lad just no legs anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan was a good lad just no legs anymore I agree, not good having players on big money wages who don't play. It's good we are having a ruthless clear out on this front. Let's see players earn good contracts. I don't think we will get any sort of fee for Allan, but if he not part of the plans, then no point in paying wages if we can get him of the bill. Fair does to Allan for going to play in a much lesser league rather than sitting on a bench and enjoying the home comforts.
