Appaz there are some Premier League clubs and Celtic that are looking at Davies should we consider to sell him.
So I'm guessing this could be one were we make a profit but with the player not even starting a game for us..

Who we buy and what we spend on them has absolutely nothing to do with any of us.
Hope this helps.

With our injury record, Davies will be our starting CB by Christmas. He'll be guiding Koumetio until Rhys recovers...
It's still nice to imagine that we can sign players who can make a difference to what we watch every week
It's impressive though, happy we are also picking up Konate and not Upamecano who looked subpar against us
Could get both and shift Phillips and Matip
Gomez will still fetch a decent price. The guy is too injury prone.
Didn't GKMacca say that Gomez's agent would demand to move to a London club if he's no longer first choice, or something along those lines?
I'd be amazed if we let Gomez go, TBH. Complete non-starter. The only caveat is if he starts acting a dick behind the scenes, but I can't see that happening. Matip is the one who needs to go.
We were unaffected by the VVD injury. It was when Gomez went down everything went to shit. The lad stepped up in his absence and proved himself in his own right.

This is like Origi is a goal game striker, if you only look at the five games in a row he scored in and forget the rest.
He's 21 and he's already had hip surgery. I haven't been able to find what the exact cause was but it seems it's either a labral tear or a hip flexor tear.
Problems with your hip and hip flexor often cause problems higher up and lower down. It's no surprise one of the other injuries is a thigh muscle. It's very possible the two are related, and the fact the hip was bad enough to require surgery is a red flag.
I don't know how many players have suffered similar injuries and returned to their best. I do know Harry Kewell had similar hip problems.
Lamella had a double hip operation, Komate had surgery and then complained he was still in pain so then had further surgery.
It's a risk alright. And when we're coming from a situation where we have two really injury prone centre halves (one who should leave) and another who has had a heavy injury, then it's a big worry.
It's also really odd timing, when Kabak and Phillips need to play their arses off for the rest of the season, it's sort of a "what's the fucking point" situation for them.

It's in general odd after this season that we aren't just signing the most concrete player possible
Well it's possible that both Phillips and Matip will go, so that would leave us with VVD, Gomez, Kabak and this lad. Which on paper is the same as this season really. Potential for 2-3 centre halves to spend most of the season in the treatment room.
Is that sarcastic ? Upamecano was very good against us.
There is a simple rule with Klopps signings, either they have next to no injuries:
Salah
VVD
TAA
Robbo
Bobby
Gini
Mane
And above is your reliable list, the others are fucked and have been for long periods. Also I am not talking about game induced Pickford rapes on our players.

I think it is going to be difficult to sell Matip. Long contract with wages over 100k. Would other clubs be willing to take on such a contract given his injury record?
I kinda hope Phillips sticks around. There will always be a role for a defender with his aerial prowess in our squad. But given the number of first-team starts he has had this season, I will be surprised if he accepts a squad role with us. I can see him moving to other clubs and being a solid premier league defender with experience.
It is very odd that we are spending money on someone with such an injury record. Just the names being discussed in the last two pages who had similar surgeries - Kewell, Sturridge - makes me even more pessimistic.
