It seems to me that all the speculation that the Guehi move is 'back on' and that L'pool are 'encouraged' that a Deal can be done is down to the fact that we are in for Igor Julio. no Idea what he's like tbh. someone said he's a left footed ball playing defender - in which case that loosely sums up Guehi's position.
but that's all it is, speculation. we need more CB's - we only have 3 CBs(including MG....Riad not included), when our system is 3 at the back, so need cover. we need both Julio and Canvot just to get the squad to barely healthy. and now with Whartons injury meaning Lerma needs to cover midfield, not defence - we're drastically short in that area.
Noone knows what decisions are being made behind the scenes. I just hope that SP makes the right decision(IMO) and keeps Guehi. yes we'll lose him for a free next year, but if he helps moves us up the table and get to the latter stages of conference, then I'd revenue will be up, so he'd have paid most of that back, won't he?
