Prob not this window.Yes, instantly. Obviously won't happen though.
However, if Levy was thinking he will get at least 50m for Rose next window, he may possibly outlay for Sessegnon now to integrate him into the team.

Not sure if this has been mentioned but would people be prepared to swap Rose for Sessegnon i.e. if we could get 50m for Rose (which we prob could), would you be prepared to spend that on RS? One is 17 and massively on the rise and the other is 28 and at his peak as one of the best players in his position.
I personally have no idea as I have never seen Sessegnon play, but am interested in others opinions.
Not unless we got another left back. Sessegnon is 17, never played at the top level and people are dreaming if they think he'd come straight in to our defence. He'll be an attacking midfielder imo, not a defender.
Ben Davies (plus Sessegnon) for the rest of the season?Not unless we got another left back. Sessegnon is 17, never played at the top level and people are dreaming if they think he'd come straight in to our defence. He'll be an attacking midfielder imo, not a defender.
I think he would be both next season with the move to left back coming when full ready. It would be good to tie this up but don’t feel it’s going to happen until the summer of at all
I’m sure Ben Davies would love to swap Champions League for the championshipBen Davies (plus Sessegnon) for the rest of the season?
I think you missed my point. If we sold Rose and got Sessegnon, we would have Davies and Sessegnon for the rest of the season.I’m sure Ben Davies would love to swap Champions League for the championship
Whoops I did. Only had one cup of coffee so far.I think you missed my point. If we sold Rose and got Sessegnon, we would have Davies and Sessegnon for the rest of the season.

You have me excited now.Like you say, Rose is at his peak whereas Sess is potential. However, I believe Sess has a much higher ceiling than anything I've seen recently. For a teenager he is highly intelligent both on the ball and off, knows when to commit, tracks back etc. Highly mobile and physically a large lad, playing with grown men in the championship doesn't phase him. If you watch Fulham basically everything goes through him, he is involved in everything good Fulham do. His recent goal tally is down to his mobility, always a willing runner, late box runs and intelligent positional play. Knows when to find space.
He does have a lot to work on, sometimes appears clumsy etc. Everything else though is positive, as a 17 year old he has everything there to make him a great PL player. I'd accept the loss of Rose if we got Sess, I think he'd be first choice next season.
Would depend on other deals for me.Not sure if this has been mentioned but would people be prepared to swap Rose for Sessegnon i.e. if we could get 50m for Rose (which we prob could), would you be prepared to spend that on RS?

If you want players like Sessegnon to develop you have to play them. I’d be more than happy to allow Rose to move on and bring this kid in. Also I think KWP is another player who would benefit from us moving on Trippier and giving him the chance.Would depend on other deals for me.
If we had Sess and Davies as our only left wing backs I wouldn’t be happy.
I think Jan can play left back (does he play there for Belgium?).Would depend on other deals for me.
If we had Sess and Davies as our only left wing backs I wouldn’t be happy.
If we continue to play with very attacking wing backs, surely that suits him perfectlySessegnon for me at present looks like would be better further up pitch so if Rose goes we will need another specialist left back to replace him.

We won't though. We aren't going 3 at the back every game.
I think that's largely due to Toby's injury at the moment. Once he's back I expect to see us revert to a back 3 in the majority of games.
I don't. We already have Eriksen, Son, Dele, Lamela, Moura (I assume), possible Malcom in the summer for the attacking mids. I think we'll stick to the 4-2-3-1 for the most part. All onions ofc.
