[Albion] Seriously ???? Lamptey to Wolves on loan?

[Mustafa II]

Rumours of a bid incoming from Sporting. Offer estimated to be around 8-10m euros.

I personally think it would be a good time to cash in.

He's a useful squad player when fit, but he's never going to be the explosive full back that he once was.

Chelsea have a sell on percentage don’t they?

That seems fair to be honest and a good opportunity for young Tariq, he should do well there.

 

[The Fits]

He'd absolutely thrive in that league.

Would he get through the medical?

Yes. It’ll just apply to the amount over his initial signing fee with us.

Is 8-10m really cashing in though?

That's a fraction of what he was worth a couple of years ago.

Good point. We should go back in time before he got repeatedly injured and sell him.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

I would snap their hands off for that.

Still think he has something to offer us but he's made of glass.

 

[Pevenseagull]

That mural in Farm Road, Hove will need some updating

 

[Badger Boy]

I think he's got a future in the game but he's a year or two away from being able to get back to where he was. I'd extend his contract and get him out on loan to play regular football and then see whether we can integrate him back into our team. We could be letting a £30m player leave for a third of that otherwise. It might be that he wants to move on, which is fair enough if he does but hopefully not.

Or we should hold onto him and see if we can get him back to his best.

How long are we going to keep trying? Almost three years since his injury and with the odd exception he's just not been good enough.

It's sad but really hard to disagree with this.

 

[BBassic]

I think he's still clearly a talented player but it was his pace that made him special.

Since his injuries he's almost looked reluctant to take the handbrake off for fear of re-injuring himself. It makes sense; can understand why he wouldn't want to do himself any further damage.

Personally would prefer to keep him for this season for the depth he provides but, as ever, I'll trust the club know what they're doing.

Well, that's the point I was trying to make.

Is it better for us to sell for £8-10m and make a small profit and free up some wages/a squad place for a new player. Or stick with him and try and get him back to his best when he was being touted as a £40m player.

 

[CHAPPERS]

No room for passengers these days. Hopefully he gets his move and can start again.

 

[Jesus Gul]

God I must view everything through blue and white striped tinted glasses. I think Tariq is a serious baller who would thrive under RdZ when fully recovered. Loved his cameo (and goal and celebrations) v Arsenal in the Carabou Cup

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Absolutely love Tariq.

Would love him to to stay, get fit, win his place back and kick on to be the player we all know he can be ..... but I've got a nagging feeling that it's best for all parties if he goes to Lisbon and rebuilds from there

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Is his other problem, systems as well. He looks very much a specialist wing back, more running, more chance to get up and down. Right back doesn't accentuate his strengths in the same way
