Lewis Cook not starting for Bournemouth, not sure that means he is good enough for us but we were linked in summmer. Home grown in a position we need

I agree about the player and think he is special. The thing I've read is he isn't as effective out on the wing as he is in the middle of the field behind the striker, but there are plenty of idiots who write things about football on the internet.
I think because he isn't the fastest, he isnt slow just not Lucas/Son speed, that playing as a winger doesn't fit him best. But considering we more often play inside forwards I don't think it would be to big an issue, especially if Aurier is behind him. He's also left footed which we really need, Lamela being the only one. Aside from that he's an excellent dribbler, think Dembele with more tricks, he's great at getting into the box. But as I mentioned, I think he could do an excellent job as a second forward, he has played there before for Lyon and done well. We obviously won't buy him and are probably have no interest, but I think he would be a very clever buy and one who has lots of technical ability which we need more of in our team.

So the two best players for Lyon last night were both central midfielders we've been linked with for the last two close seasons, but didn't manage to get over the line.

I've supported the clubs stance on player purchases for a long, long time, but for the last two close seasons we have well and truly made poor judgements, and lacked any ambition

Brazilian friend of mine is a die hard Flamengo fan and keeps raving to me about this kid. Keeps shoving skills video in my face when ever I see him. Looks the nuts but haven't seen a whole match of his. Apparently he has exceptional vision. No doubt destined for Barca, Madrid, Juve, City anywhere other then us.
