If you get 2 years out of him and he helps reduce the goals we concede by 10/15/20 then it's worth every penny.

A new manager was what we needed last year, Ashley Williams would have been as vulnerable as the next mug to play in a RM back four.

You can't really be concerned, can you?
Sterling, a nothing player, sold for 50m and affects nothing on the football field.
Jordan Ibe, another nothing player, has been bought for 15m recently.
Williams, proven to be one of the best centre backs in the Premier League and somebody who has the attributes (strong, good in the air, vocal, a proven leader) our defence has been missing for years, for around 10m? What's to even consider?
Said it before, but if there is any small chance we could get Stones to stay and partner him with Williams I would be in dreamland; the perfect defensive combination. Think it's clear Stones is going though, so I look forward to Mori or a new player forging a partnership with Williams over the next 3 or 4 years - it's clear he looks after his body and is still very, very much in his prime.
I'm sorry but Williams is being bought to replace Jagielka, not partner him. He'll play alongside Stones/Funes Mori (that's if he's being bought at all, of course)

You think 10 million is over priced for a 32 year old centre half with a good 2/3 years left in the tank in the current market? Plus he's classed as homegrown as he is English (Even though he plays for Wales)

Best be! Jagielka should not be starting games this season. If we're into all this niceness then keep him as club captain by all means, but give the matchday armband and team captaincy to Williams or Coleman.
Hmmm....you were doing well up until that point!
I like him, good player, but no leader of anything!

It's mad isn't it, even if his defensive attributes gained us two places in the league consistently for the next 3 years, we've recouped the money spent. If we finish top 6 due the organisation he brings then we've made money. IMO there is nothing bad about this transfer if it happens.

He'd make a good captain for us. But I'd rather give it to Williams, if he joins us.
No need to apologise! I think he probably is long(ish) term to replace Jags. But these things have a funny way of working out. An injury here or a suspension there - and the two get thrust together. And it'll work. You watch.

It's pretty well known that a lot of the players say that if Jags wasn't skipper that Coleman would be the next choice. It seems the Irish management think so too.
I think if we just look at him as a player then perhaps not, but have a listen to what people who actually know him think. They speak very very highly.
I think your being unfair to our neighbours here quoting Sterling and Ibe as overpriced useless donkeys. Personally I would of used players like Markovic, Lallana, Lovren, Benteke etc etc, Just to keep the peace, No stereotyping etc.

You're right, I guess. Markovic has been completely useless, but Benteke should have been brilliant for them but somehow didn't perform then got a terrible injury and looks finished. Lallana blows very much hot and cold, never worth the 25m or so they paid for him. Lovren also hot and cold, but a good player on his day. Anyway, enough about that lot.I think your being unfair to our neighbours here quoting Sterling and Ibe as overpriced useless donkeys.

Really happy with this signing. Whilst it would be nice to bring in two 21/22 year old prospects, I think we need to recalibrate our defence and rebuild from the back. Couldn't have targeted a better PL CB for me either. Great player.
