Yup and I think the key quotes from that article are " (CP) say that financially they do not need to sell either player" and "Neither contract contains a straightforward release clause and any deal will be complex with percentages due to the player's former club, the players themselves and...
I know in the past the idea might have seemed far fetched but there is actually a very real possibility that there is deal to be done there. A lot will come down to the new manager I think, but if we wanted him and told him as much I think there is a good chance we could get him for a very good...
I still just do not see us spending 70+ mil on any one player in general and certainly not one who's best position is a playmaking 10 even if he can also play wide. I know everyone wants him I just really don't see it happening. Maybe if he was a pure winger who could play on ether wing then we...
But that’s more a specific skill set than a profile of striker. I don’t disagree that the striker we look for should have good hold up play but that doesn’t mean they have to be a false 9. As I said in my last post there are plenty of target men or fox in the box types that excel at hold up...
You could well be right, scary thing is tho they still have 4 games left, they could quite possibly be in touching distance of 100 GF by the end of it and yet they still might not win it. Good marker of where we need to get to. Just hope we do our job this weekend and derail their chances.
I only just realised Arsenal have scored 85 goals this season and only let in 26. I’m sure it’s been mentioned on here but that really is very impressive. Guess it puts our 65 for and 49 against in to perspective. More in the sense that it’s a good indicator of how early we are in our...
I know everyone wants Nico Williams, and for good reason, but I honestly think we should also be following the situation with Federico Chiesa over the next month or so and giving him serious consideration.
In terms of fitness, which has always been the big issue, his last injury hasn’t been...
You just know that Everton will completely collapse at some point but it’s nice to see them going for it at least. Liverpool looking very flappy at the moment, can’t see it lasting.
I’m very surprised more clubs aren’t looking at him, I know this is only his first break out season but I think the quality is plain to see.
Like Williams I just don’t see him coming here so have never really given him serious consideration as a viable option but on paper he’d be pretty much...
I think one of the big issues with Son as a CF is the complete lack of box presence. Richy is certainly significantly better in his hold up play but he also is a target in the box for crosses. This I think is one of the biggest benefits of his game. Considering a lot of Johnson and Werner’s game...
Thing is if you move the FB wide then you have to account for that in the centre of the pitch especially when you loose possession. It’s not as simple as getting the FB to go on the outside whilst the WF changes into an IF.
Likewise if you keep your WF wide in the middle build up phase but then...
But then we would need to adjust our tactics to allow the WF to cut in which essentially compresses our width. Im not saying i disagree with what your saying but Ange seems very keen for our wide forwards to hug the touchline in order to keep the pitch as wide as possible, I would be surprised...
