I know you're half joking but even if we want Barnes to start wherever possible, we've got to add quality attacking options to actually start building a squad. Last year was nuts when we started with a front three of Vards, Barnes and Madders with "match winners" Shinji, Nacho and Gray on the bench. For me, Perez can never start a game and still be a brilliant signing. We're still looking for quality in the attacking midfield / wide areas.

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 8 July 2019 Popular Post Share Posted 8 July 2019 Barnes stats last season suggest with a modicum of improvement in end product and settling down he will be outrageous. It's only a matter of time. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thauvin looks quality, though we should be careful not to hinder Barnes and Gray’s development. Gray has been given plenty of opportunities to develop. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeg67 Posted 8 July 2019 Share Posted 8 July 2019 Memory can be myopic, but there were a lot of people slagging off Tielemans as mediocre before we consummated the loan deal last year. I don't think Thauvin is getting anywhere near the credit here that he deserves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SO1 Posted 8 July 2019 Share Posted 8 July 2019 1 hour ago, Finnegan said: I'd be pretty happy with Thauvin, it'd be good to see us focusing on wide players that contribute quite heavily in the goals department. We missed the boat with Pepe last summer. That's an understatement on Pepe. Looks like he's going to Liverpool. Talk about an embarrassment of riches.

If he'd have scored in that game away at Spurs where he missed a couple of sitters, I think he'd have gotten about 6 last year which is nuts in the amount of games he had. It just seemed to get to his head that he wasn't finishing. He needs someone to get an arm round him and work on getting him composed in front of goal in the way that Philips seemed to kick Vardy on a bit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has to take them and produce. Its all about goals. Fans and ownership expect results and as you know this league is ruthless. The most difficult thing we'll be facing over the next couple of years is squad depth and quality. Especially if we're in Europa or Champions League. Going from 40+ to 60+ games is a big deal and we have to start preparing now. It can't be done in one window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have been happy to get Tielemans, keep Barnes on the left and go all out for the best goal scoring right sided attacker we could get instead of buying Perez. Thauvin would have been just that player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a matter of time. intuitively I wholeheartedly agree with this. My only negative thoughts are that the area where that modicum is needed is the hardest on the pitch - Calmness in front of goal. That having been said if he can improve in that area he will be a monster 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
