Yeah PEH is a strange one for me I was very critical of him and didn't like the fact he was our first choice midfielder for so long.

But he's a good pro and good at most things although he's a liability at times aswell.

I think the balance of our midfield is good, But when we are on top of games we lack any sort of threat from deep that's where I think an great passer could help as well as every now and then scoring a cracker in tight games.

No one presses Bissouma anymore because they know he isn't a threat until they press him.

yea i hear ya. need someone deeper to pick the lock and snap balls into the front men. romero kind of does that from the Cb position, he loves snapping balls into feet. its maddisons job to pick the lock as hes the 10. but if he comes deeper you lose a bit of class high up, which is why the front 3 needs upgrading. he should be able to come deeper and have quality options in front of him on his wave length. like he would have if we still had kane!

The last thing we should be doing is being quick about buying him. We have the whole window to batter down the price.

dont get the gallagher interest. 40m on another midfielder when our midfield is probably our strongest area makes no sense. i dont think hes even an upgrade on biss, sarr or bentancur. let alone a big enough upgrade to warrant putting 40m in an area thats not weak . if he shat all over them 3 then fair enough but he doesnt.

40m would see far better value being invested in the front 3 or back 4.
 
I know the Gallagher dialogue has been beaten into the ground, but with Sarr and Bentancur already on the roster, it sure feels like 40m would be better spent on the best #6 we can manage to start over Bissouma.

1 game by Raphina against a bang average PSG side doesn't change anything.

He might even be in a brief purple patch but he's a painfully average player.

Porro is an overall better option for inverted RB in our system. If Cancelo is better it's close and based on the past not the now.

Unless you have seen Lewandowski in the flesh this season, I'll trust my own eyes thanks.

Who does Kounde start over for us? How many did Barca concede last night?

How many do we concede? Kounde over Porro as he was playing RB last night. He can double up for a CB "Spare as well".

Average PSG? I wonder what they calling us if PSG is average. Guess we have a leg to stand on, especially because we in the Semi finals of the UEFA Champions League....... Oh wait, My Bad, They are and we aren't. As for Raphina being average, what do you say about Werner, Kulu, Bissouma, Bentancur, Johnson, Richarilson, PEH? Lemme Guess.......World Class.

I'm warming up to Richie, but I'd take Lewendowski over anyday.

I think maybe you need to go see some form of a specialist. Creating a reality that doesn't match realty probably has 10 000 mental conditions attaches to it.

Wake up. Stop rejoicing about average. You have a right to demand excellence from the richest team in London.
