MGW will never play in champions league then. On flip side we cant attract a player from nottingham forest. Something needs to change at top. Weve bad PR. Had it good under poch and envy of league. We imploded.
 
Have to laugh at some of the previous comments;
“Marinakis doesn’t know who’s he’s dealing with”
“Watch Forest get utterly Levyed”
“Levy knows what he’s doing, we’re keeping our powder dry, Forest haven’t a leg to stand on”

Levy is no longer a shrewd operator people.
He’s a shyster of the highest order who clearly tried to pull a stroke here, was caught out, and has now been made to look like an utter chump by Forests owner and has again made us the absolute laughing stock of the league.

This man is going to drag us further and further into the mire. The future really is so so bleak with him at the helm, it’s genuinely frightening.
 
He's significantly worse than MGW though.

He's really not, they profile pretty similarly (see below). Both can carry the ball, both create stuff, both work hard and get their foot in without the ball. Both good profiles for the other 8 with Maddison and a 6.

Different profile at least. This guy could probably play in the pivot almost being a 6. Agree though, he didn't have a great season, but maybe that's understandable with a "death sentence" hanging over your head. He would probably have been a City player if it hadn't been for that match fixing case

I think they are actually pretty similar profiles:








If you look sat the one area of difference, assists, Paqueta's XA90 is actually far superior to MGW, which suggests Paqueta's team mates were at fault. Apart from that, they are very similar profiles with/without the ball.

Wouldn't have him as a 6.........

(FWIW Moyes used to play him ahead of a Soucek & Rice double pivot.)

#8 with quality on the ball and attacking instincts........ My concern would be the complaints I recall from spammers that he'd get carried away and neglect the defensive end of his game.


Not sure that's a valid complaint IMO.
