Would love us to get Nuamah. I've been closely following his career ever since I found out who he was five minutes ago.

The fact we apparently are looking at bringing in young talent is very encouraging.

Wow he looks electric.

Definitely passes the eye test and reminds me of a young left footed Mane.

He would add some much needed pace and trickery into the front 3.


From what I have seen he is not bad with his right either.

Posted this vid of his first game of the season already, but here's a few points to note from it.

1. Look how he is hugging the touchline in build-up play, just how Ange wants his wingers to.

2. Also take note that Nordjaellund's manager has a similar tactic to Ange of creating triangles out on the wings, and take note of how comfortable Ernest is with the short interplays required in it.

3. Look at his desire and pace to run in behind, which would be important if he was needed to play striker.

4. Also how two of his goals were tap ins from low crosses from the wings, which is a very consistent pattern of play that Ange looks for in his tactics.

4. And this was probably the worst that I've seen Nuamah perform when it comes to his 1v1 take-ons, so is not representative of his actual abilities.

5. Also not shown in the video is his immense work-rate, he presses like a mad man and has a similar knack to it that Lucas Moura had (in that with his mad burst of pace he manages to get a foot to a ball that a defender doesn't even expect possible). An opposition's heavy touch in his vicinity very often leads to an instant turnover.

All in all, I'm certain that stylistically he is a perfect fit to play as a winger for Ange.
But also that he would be a very good option to play as a striker aswell.

I assume he is an alternative to Gift?

The YT video was compelling. But also need to keep in mind the standard of the league.

That said - holy moly. Those are some lightening quick feet. Having players like him and Solomon come on late in a game when you're up against a low block, is crucial. Both running at tired legs, taking out players via their dribbling abilities, drawing fouls...

And yeah - he's so young. Could be an absolute beast in a couple of years.

Looks a very exciting prospect. Would love us to get him as he seems to have the potential to turn into a superstar

Sorry. Can’t trust the judgement of someone that can’t count to 5.

It says Burnley are most advanced and we’ve only enquired.
I’m prepared to be let down
Tbh I was expecting him to go to Ajax as they have been tracking him intensely for a while. Burnley is a very random link, at this point tho I could certainly see him going to a PSG and then getting loaned out as his name has grown in the last few months. At least we are interested tho. Very encouraging.

Anyone else getting Mbappe vibes? Looks like an athlete that also happens to have really excellent close quarter ball control.
