Left footed right winger, a position we do actually need some competition / options for!

To me, he fits Ange's system better than Johnson. Very exciting

Only negatives I can think of is price and he is left footed, so likes to cut infield a lot. Seems Ange wants someone to keep the width and be able to dribble the byline

He does go outside too, he’s definitely 2 way capable.

He is raw and needs to be developed but he’s got the skillset that’s for sure.

He was earmarked as a potential Salah replacement if he went to Saudi.

You can see why, the kid is very talented.

If we were in for BJ and looking at Amrabat or Paulihna if we sold PEH, it would track that we could alternatively do Gallagher and Bakayoko. Still 1 HG.
Bless your optimism. If we sign both I’ll eat your hat as well as mine

This guy any good, never heard of him until this week
I believe he joined the PSV senior squad last January and has been flying ever since. If the numbers have anything to say about him he could really develop well.

Here's also a couple of articles I found about him:

Eye-popping. If we end up being the reason that he called off the Brentford deal then this window might be saved yet...

Why compare bakayoko 22/23 with Johnson and Kulusevski 23/24?

Am I missing something?

Johnson didn't give me an option, and I figured a comparison in playing styles to Kulu this year would be a little better than Conte's tactics but maybe the sample size isn't enough

Fair play. Just very surprised at Johnson’s G/A numbers as it was something like 11 goals and 3 assists last year. Then realised it was different years.
But I get the logic of using Ange's style of football rather than conteball 👍🏼
