Don’t think there’ll be a queue of clubs waiting to buy him So we might get him for a free so Everton get him off their wage bill. No idea what sort of wage he’s on but knowing Everton probably currently at top end of our wage scale so might need to take a drop in wages to come to us. As others have said he is at best a squad player who would do a job in certain circs. CW will know him well and if he thinks he will add to the squad strength wise then it would Make sense to try and do a deal for not a lot of money.
“Stocking filler”.
 

I think we have exceeded him.

I’d rather keep Lundstram and let him run his deal down than spend 2-4m on Mo and most of his 60k per week wages.

And I’m not in favour of that approach with Lunny.

I’m surprised that we haven’t found anyone in Europe that we couldn’t bring in on a free that could perform a similar role than spending cash on Besic.
 
If we fail to sign our midfield targets and Lunny leaves which is likely then I would like Besic back. If Wilder is interested in bringing him back we should be able to sign him for £2.5M - £3M which is about right but no more than that. He's probably not even a fringe player of Everton's he's that far down their pecking order.

He's fully committed, hard in the tackle and aggressive in breaking up play as at this level we're not often going to dominate for large spells in every match and this is where I think Besic would be very useful for us.
I agree. Besic
is nails and represents quality back up. In the absence of Lunny he represents good value. Given a run of games he could make a potent starter.
3-5m in todays market? Gerrrim signed
 
Likely to return if Lundstram goes and now Berge is out for a while? Take on the last 6 months of his Everton contract and pay a nominal fee. Keeps a loan spot open.
Wouldn’t mind it and a midfield two of him plus either Osborn or ampadu would be energetic and nasty enough to cover for us deploying a 10.
 
Mo thanks.

If we are getting a foreign defender on loan, then it's a match winning midfielder we need, not another defensive one.

Our situation is beyond grave possibly terminal. If all we can get is Besic, then that isn't going to be enough. We may as well save the money or put it towards a player on affordable wages who will be part of the team next season in the Championship.

think we might need more than one more midfielder next summer
 
I think he is player we would have kept had COVID not happened. That goes for Retsos as well as a deal was in place for him.

If we can get Mo back on the cheap, seems like a no brainer especially with Berge out as well.
 
All for Besic coming back in get him on a cheap, probably outplays fleck at this moment in time. Love how cheap or bargain to many of us blades is now 2-5 million...What snobs we have become.

we would have to buy besic if were bringing lingard in on loan but if we could get him for 3m and man utd would cover some of lingards salary it would be a very good double signing for our weakened midfield
 
My concern would be that he’ll be miles away from match fitness, as will anyone we bring in on loan. What we need is people to hit the ground running, not be unfit for 4 months and then go back to their parent clubs having had little impact.
 
I'm sure I read somewhere that the loan was cut short because we couldn't come to an agreement with him to extend it, not us wanting to cut it short. I quite like him but I think it would be a wiser career move for him to go elsewhere for more game time than he'd have here, especially if we bring Swift in.
Has Swift being playing For Reading? not seen him mentioned on Quest
 
Anybody that thinks this fella won't improve us needs to open their eyes. I've not seen any of our midfielders win a tackle or second ball for weeks.

He would definitely improve us when compared to Norwood, or Besic. If he's an option then I'd definitely bring him in just to give us some kind of fight in the middle of the park. Might also do a job in the Championship.
