Genk is an absolute breeding ground for good players so if our ex Viking goalie’s kid is the latest in their conveyor belt then I’m all for it.
As for Diaz, it seems to good to be true but every now and then we do get one, so I’m absolutely hoping. He may not be playing in the biggest priority area but we’re not exactly full of goalscorers and sometimes if you have the opportunity to buy class you have to buy class where it’s available.
Morata is a strange one. He’s always had everything except goals. However, Conte knows and likes him and at least he’s not brand new to this league so if true, there’s a lot of upside.
Lastly, Amrabat. I’ve been obsessively looking at his stats, reading write ups, watching highlights and going for as much as I can on him since were were linked and I’ve come round. I actually think he’s going to surprise it’s nicely if we get him. He has that combination of strength, an unlikely but effective dribble and an accurate pass, combined with aggression of the ball, that I actually think helps is at least not get overrun in the middle like we often are, and might even help us control the middle better than we do at the moment. He lacks the craft I crave but he seems to have the best bits of PEH and Winks and is a pretty good all round player.
