Really!? That's quite interesting! Fuchs I think was a class act for us from his first appearance! How can anyone not rate someone who did this? 6 23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if somehow we signed a world class winger, Barnes, Gray and Albrighton aren’t. Barnes might improve but he’s no Jadon Sancho. Ricardo is one of the best full backs in Europe, JJ is promising. Fuchs and Albrighton have done well at LWB. Two up top means Vardy supported by either Nacho or Barnes. 3 in the middle suits Perez who looked much better behind the striker than on the wings. 3 of Ndidi / Tielemans / Maddison / Praet can all play. I prefer the 4141 stylistically but it would be much easier to recruit for 3412 and probably would play more to our strengths to go that way.

Kopic Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 We need a left back 😥 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryn Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 I reckon Ricardo could play LWB to the same standard if it comes to it. He tends to drive inside anyway, that way he’d be cutting onto his stronger foot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did make me laugh is that stringer mentioned why Castagne was equally good on both sides when he is naturally right footed, Kristof replied Paulo Maldini was one of the worlds best left backs and he was right footed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TommyK Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 Although I think this guy gives us the option to go 5-3-2 I don't think BR wants to play like that. Richardo is basically a wingback playing at right back. It's the way we play. Chilwell was the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 Praet is decent. Always has space, sign of a good player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snoopy87 Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 Imagine if we are in for Gosens at the same time and BR's masterplan is to push Ricky P further up. Think I've just got myself excited for no reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NaijaFox Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 So have we signed him yet? Sounds like a fixer-upper. Not ideal, but hopeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what exactly is a 'fixer-upper' in your eyes? For me his versatility works well for us in the situation we find ourselves in - no regular LB apart from Thomas, only Justin as a proper right-back until Pereira comes back. I think, if we also buy a LB too to rotate with Thomas, he may plan to use Ricardo further up and utilise how we know he can attack and have a forward-thinking football brain, so to speak. Then we have new LB/Thomas on one side, Castagne/Justin on the other with the option of Ricardo playing at RB if needed, and also further options of Castagne/Justin to play LB if really required.

Just got through watching the obligatory Youtube clip, and the best that can be said is that he would add depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if they're still an idea and we're looking at both them and Castagne Not sure how much money we've got. But my thoughts are wed still look for a left back if they see a value option available - I think this is more about someone who can play in a 352. Someone on here said our first transfer would be a right back but are still after a left back. I wonder if mcneil could play left wing back too.

adam Posted 31 August 2020 Share Posted 31 August 2020 If we are going for 3 5 2 we best get another centre half in. Dont fancy big wes as the backup. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If in the window we see a reasonably priced LB, then you'd think we'd potentially jump at it. Wonder if a Gosens/Castagne double swoop could be an option. But think we need to strengthen CB/ST/RW after this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
