There's a kid I've mentioned before at Marseille called Boubacar Kamara (20yo) he started out in the fist team as a CB, but is now being played as a DM. I think he played both as kid too. Worth keeping tabs on. And I've long liked Maxi Lopez (22yo) at Marseille too. is a kind of 8/6 hybrid, good little footballer but tenacious too, works hard.

I just want to elaborate on this a little. Soumare is definitely a 6/CM not a creative 8 type, and I have seen games where he's worked hard. But one reservation I have about him based on the few times I've watched him is that he's not always tenaciously dynamic (or busy) enough. He doesn't always voraciously hunt and bite like say a Kante or Ndidi do.

He is only 20 and having his first full season at this level. And maybe he needs better coaching and developing. But as I said, I really don't think he'd be in the 40-50m bracket.

One of the problems we have right now, is having watched people like Dier and Sissoko clunk around for much of the last two years in our midfield, any cunt who ca combine a bit of tackling, kicking a ball straight and not panicking every time they see it starts to look half sexy to us.
Would love Ndidi
 
Don't think we'll buy anyone in Jan, maybe one.

If suitable offers come in for Wanyama and Eriksen then they are likely off.

Interested to see if Rose, Davies and Lamela are in Jose's plans at all. If not they'll be off but more likely in the summer.

Davies 100% in JM's plans.
Obviously if his injury problems were solved then Lamela could be a fantastic player.
Maybe JM can aim him forwards instead of sideways?
 


Played for Flamenco v Liverpool in the World Club football final as Santos da Silva ( no 8) - anyone watch it ? bus-conductor bus-conductor Totti Totti often watch a lot of football ?

Be a bit of a surprise to me if we did sign him as he spent 3 years in Italy with Roma and Florentine before being sold back to Brazilian club Flamenco for 11m euros in July 2019. Stats suggest he was "steady' in Italy rather than setting house on fire ? But most Brazilian players want to come to Europe for better money and better football....

Very highly rated when he came over to Roma - they beat Barca to his signature and he had a lot of hype but it just never happened for him. Barely started 10games in 2 years and his loan to Fiorentina was steady if unspectacular. Young and inexperienced though.

Highly talented but not sure where he fits in here.
