I disagree on KWP and I rate him alot. Njie you are being harsh on, he also stretches defences, can get in behind and is a good dribbler. Chadli may play wide but he doesn't stretch defences, and rarely dribbles and IMO, is more of a block than Njie or Son.I think KWP was ready to do the same type of job that Trippier has done this season.
I know Njie is different to Pritchard, but I don't necessarily think he was a better option for that difference, personally I think Pritchard offers a lot more than NJie apart from in a 10 yard sprint. And when you consider we already had Chadli, Eriksen, Lamela, and bought Son and Alli as well (know Son arrived after but we were obviously working on both so could have made the choice of either or regardless of who came first).
All we did was throw another 10m body - with even less senior experience and proven ability - in front of Pritchard in the queue for a AM place.
