Would he though? ......"definitely"?

If this were a "definite" then he would have a similar influence at Wolves vs when he's not playing.
I've already explained why I don't think Adama is a suitable transfer for RW. End product not good enough.

And Adama tends to sprint before punting it into row Z or otherwise mis-controlling it, because he's a complete shithouse.
Adama can actually dribble past people, before fucking up the final pass/shot.

Anyway my opinion of Dan James is very low, hence I'd prefer Adama. I'd prefer Gil to both, talented youngster we shouldn't' give up on.
 
Fabregas only started 13 games in the league that year though and rarely started against the better clubs because he couldn't keep up most of the time. Legs were gone.

I'm sure though if we found someone half as good as Fabregas available for a decent fee, we'd have likely made the deal. The fact Eriksen was free and we passed up should tell you all you need to know.

Conte has shown he can utilise a creative midfielder but that Chelsea team would have won the league without Fabregas regardless. Kante and Matic were fantastic that year. His full backs contributed successfully and Hazard and Costa were deadly.

If our right wing back can contribute on par with Perisic, Hojbjerg and Bentancur can continue to be solid, Kulusevski can contribute like Fabregas did and Kane and Son can be deadly, I'm sure we'll be just fine.

Who's gonna do the work of two men like peak Kante did?

.....Without that level of productivity(*) we will struggle when out-numbered as we've already seen v the Chavs.

(*Ditto Poch's 343 when Dembele was out..........)

The hope is that Bissouma will prove dominant enough to take the weight, but a combo of PEH & Bcur will understandably struggle in some games.
