We were poor against them both over Christmas, clearly we aren’t good enough to play our game whatever our opponent so finding a way to play against them and also for away in champions league next season this could be a way forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The young lad at Rennes is who we should be looking at, his stats are unreal in his debut season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit recent performances from him haven't been great. Not so sure he is overly happy barely playing which is a shame as Rodgers has the know how to turn him in to a very unique player. Has the tackling and pressing ability, needs to add a bit of awareness and guile to his game and he'd be the ideal box to box midfielder we need in certain games.

Doesn’t naturally sniff danger he’s just very athletic and can get about the pitch? Not sure he’s gone off him just maybe preferred him in another role? not sure who the young lad at Rennes is, don’t watch French footy really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 26 January 2020 Share Posted 26 January 2020 This is the right type of signing for me. I also do think we need a box to box type - our midfielders are a bit too samey. Maybe we're loaning Choudhury out, though it doesn't bode too well for him either as he's actually older than this bloke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hideous. Puelball wasn't entirely down to the formation to be fair. That was definitely a part of it but it's more than just that. Puel just wasn't anywhere near the coach Rodgers is.

We have Ndidi, being a power midfielder is massively over rated imo. If you can read the game & move the ball quickly then it doesn’t matter on size. Kante is probably one of the most lightweight midfielders in Europe yet is one of the best holding midfielders in the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mabrah Posted 27 January 2020 Share Posted 27 January 2020 (edited) 4 hours ago, Ric Flair said: Haha wrong player mate That bloke's a right back. Ibrahima has a older brother, Abdou, but he's at PSG, a six footer and plays central defence. Who is this mystery right back called Diallo? Edit: I'm enjoying this.... Moussa Diallo, 23, a right back currently at SO Cholet. Or there's another Moussa Diallo, a 29 year old centre forward. I think I'm going to build a team of Diallo's at this rate! Howz about Alpha Ibrahima Diallo? 22 year old defender, plays for ASV Wuppertal... Edit edit: bored now, mystery over - Ibrahima Diallo, 23 from Mali, currently at KAS Eupen (Belgian League 1)... which is what is said on the video clip I saw Frank Ribery on the vid too, so perhaps the Eupen v Bayern friendly on 1/10/2017, ended 0-5 to Bayern.

Kante is not lightweight don't confuse height with strength , Messi is 5-7 but solid as a rock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not confusing height from strength at all, your point is completely invalid. If you can move the ball quickly, can read the game & have good intensity off the ball then you don’t need “power”. Also Messi isn’t solid as a rock, he’s smart he’s always got his body in front of the player trying to intercept. Players can’t fully commit because it’s a straight yellow or even potential red, which makes him look like he’s bouncing off players. He’s fast, technically gifted & always has his body in front of his man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
