Yknow I’m not sure Lucas has been mentioned for several pages now. Let’s get this back on topic.
Anyone got any good nuclear-bomb related innuendos?
Eriksen or Dele more likely candidates.Ok... I think I might get a few dislikes and disagrees..... But I am gonna just put this out there.
I think Poch might use him as the new Dembele.
Here are my reasons...
So far, he has played in the centre of the midfield. I know he drifts to he wings, but he seems to be carrying alot of the ball in midfield. And he has been trying to link up play from defence to attack.
Moura has show he is strong on the ball and hard to knock off. A real strength of Dembele's game
When we signed Mousa, he was an AMC, According to FM, Lucas is an AM R/C/L. And we covered one to a holding midfielder.
Poch likes having players who can fill multiple positions. Really allows for easy change in tactics .
plus... Mousa and moura is just one letter off!
Basically if we don't purchase a new holding midfielder and Dembele leaves... don't be surprised to see Lucas a long side Dier.
He'll need to work on his defensive abilities if this is to happenOk... I think I might get a few dislikes and disagrees..... But I am gonna just put this out there.

And personally.... I think it makes alot of sense. Allow us to switch from a 4231 to a 4141.

How was he part of the problem? He played a huge part in three of the goals?He'll be lucky to get games as an AM, let alone a CM. He's just the upgraded, luxury version of Aaron Lennon.
Fans seem to love a player who can dribble, and seem to forgive the fact that they are usually erratic and unreliable nincompoops.
Moura was part of the problem Sunday, not a solution to anything.

Double no.He'll be lucky to get games as an AM, let alone a CM. He's just the upgraded, luxury version of Aaron Lennon.

How was he part of the problem? He played a huge part in three of the goals?
Maybe we're better off just agreeing to disagree I just don't see this at all. I went back and rewatched the goals and he actually helped setup 4 of the goals. Poch also took a long time to add Son fully into the rotation after he was signed. Remember Son wanting to leave after the first year? I'm also curious as to what winger we could have bought for 24mil that would have a higher ceiling and be able to help more currently than him?He did play parts in the build up to a couple of the goals, but he also added to the chaos, was erratic without the ball, and wasted a few situations too, taking too many many touches.
Look, I don't think he's without some ability, but nearly all that ability is in his feet and not much of it is in his brain, and this team has an abundance of that.
We bought him in January and he's had two league starts in the last 4 games of the season, despite our heavy schedule and despite players like Kane, Son, Alli and Lamela having indifferent bouts of form.
I really don't think his skill set was what this team needed most, or is very viable the way Poch sets up and most of our games play out.
He please the crowd for 5 minutes a game because he drop a shoulder and jink past someone, but ultimately he's as good as he's going to be, and that isn't going to elevate us much further than where we are now and the money for him (fee and wages) could have been better invested in a player more conducive and with a higher potential ceiling.
That Kane guy ain't too shabby...His running at pace to start breaks is more than welcome. He will get more time next year and I truly believe he will add many a goals.
Plus does anyone notice that he may be our best header of the ball? Dude can sky!
