Today confirms what we need. Right back, creative midfielder, wing forward who can chip in with 10/12 prem goals a season. 2 days to go i'll think we'll be lucky to get 1 of those sorted. All feels last minute scramble again.

Midfielder the one for me.

Nuno said in his post match prezzer that we can improve in transition, (going forward he said) but i can't see that with Skipp, Dele and Pierre trundling around midfield.
 
I’d love us to land a genuine ten. I just don’t think we’re going to get that from Gio.

We're playing 433 though.....

If we can find a #8 with excellent creative qualities(*) yet won't compromise our current blend/workrate then fine; but we have a balance to our midfield right now that I assume Nuno isn't keen to upset.

Using Liverpool as a model (as they have a similar midfield blend) what we're missing is a more dynamic RB and another Son-esque player to play on the right wing (i.e. Not Traore).


(*Yeh, yeh, "Ndombele"....... Boat has sailed and yeh "workrate".)
 
If you're good enough, it doesn't matter how old you are in football. Look at Greenwood, Foden or that Liverpool prick.
True.

But all of those players have had seasons around the first team and been slowly integrated.

Really excited about Gil, but I just don’t think it’s realistic to throw him in as a floating playmaker tasked with breaking down teams.

Love how quickly he moves the ball though. He instantaneously passes and looks to run.
