As many of you guys saying that we should be alright without getting Willian or another CAM ...
You guys are wrong.
Even if Holtby were to take that position (although clearly AVB sees him as a #6) ... one injury to him and we are doomed. We need (another) CAM!
Glyfi doesn't fit that position. I don't care how much we say that we should give him some time.
Be realistic. He is not made for that CAM ... but should be the perfect competition for Chadli on the LW.
Last season Bale scored wonder goals ... goals from nothing ... goals that would give us points.
Despite having great signings like Soldado and Paulo ... they are not gonna answer that problem if there's nobody between them to PROPERLY link them up.
The other problem is that Soldado thrives on service and delivery. Only crossing and passing from the wings is not going to suffice. He needs direct passes, through balls, lofted balls, etc ... from the middle ... FROM a CAM ...
Or else I'm afraid Soldado isn't going to be effective as we think he should be.
I also keep seeing, people saying Willian is shit/alright/twat etc etc etc...
Yes, he may be overpriced, but he is class ... no questions asked.
Forget about only 2 caps (that is a whole other problem dealing with Brazilians in Russia and Ukraine)
Others are saying It's ok ... cause we could get Lamela.
Guys, Lamela and Willian are two different players.
Lamela is direct and Willian is creative (indirect)
Also Willian is already ready made ... it's gonna take time for Lamela to fit in and get better.
We clearly need a CAM ... and there's clearly a huge gap that will for sure be even bigger once Bale leaves.
We all know we have the money if we were gonna spend 60mil GBP on both Lamela and Willian.
So, the question is which CAM.
It's gonna be hard to get a CAM at this point of the window.
Llajic ... is gonna go to Milan.
There's Eriksen.
There's Pjnaic... but unlikely if we get Lamela.
And there's Pastore with lack of time at PSG (which is my preferred one)
Also I doubt we would get Mata/Ozil/ Kagawa ...
Just being realistic ... can't deal with anymore false hopes.
And Fuck Mou and Kia.
