Gosens and Bryan

Poor source but article in the sun linking us to both as chilwell replacements

[VLC86]

Gosens would be incredible, can’t see it though.

Bryan, as in Joe Bryan? 

[jeffschlupp]

£27m for Gosens would be an absolute bargain.

It would, but if we still play a back 4 it wouldn’t make much sense.

 

Him and Ricky P as wing backs would be insane.

3-5-2? we would need to sign another CB, I would have thought.

Is Gosens good then? I don't watch Italian football and only saw one of Atalantas CL games post lockdown.

Gosens would be class but he’s more of a wing back

Yeah exactly, that’s why I’m wondering how true this is.

 

Or he thinks Benkovic is good enough.

Yep, absolute belter if played as a wing back. Would seem pointless buying him as a LB though.

[StriderHiryu]

Gosens would IMO be even better than Tagliafico because he's 26 years old, and was the best left wing back in Serie A by miles. He might not be a "traditional" left-back but he could easily learn to play in our system.

 

As others have said, him and Riccy P would be ridiculous.

If we sign Joe Bryan my Bristol City mate will die happy and never let me live it down  

[peach0000]

Gosens has been insane every time I've watched Atalanta play. Would have him even over tagliafico and Telles personally

 

Bryan not so much

Top class, possibly the best dedicated left wing back in Europe right now. (Atalanta play 352).

 

 

[Leicester_Loyal]

Cheers, genuinely never even heard of him really.

 

I look forward to signing Bryan anyhow.

[Stevosevic]

Any starter from Atlanta would be a welcome addition.

 

Bryan however....

Atalanta are a criminally underrated team, despite their Champions League heroics. Even in the preseason friendly against us last season (during which they were behind us fitness wise), you could see their class.

 

The reason why Gosens would be so good is a bit like Riccy P, he is an incredibly creative full back / wing back. I would go as far as saying that Ricardo is often times our most creative player, despite playing as a Right-Back. Chilwell is a solid player, but offensively he's not the same sort of threat as Ricardo. Imagine having two deadly full backs like Liverpool do... it would take our team to another level!

[VLC86]

Got to be honest I can’t see us attracting him, would love to be proved wrong.

Dodgy centre backs and a couple of solid if not spectacular Centre Mids, I wouldn’t swap Ricky P for Hateboer either and probably not Golini for Kasper but otherwise pretty much this.

Yep that's what I would have though too. Tagliafico I could just about see happening because at 28 he probably has one big move left, and if we are prepared to offer him 60-80k, that would be a 6-8x increase on what he's currently on. Money talks!

 

Gosens I would have thought would be on the radar of every team in Europe, including Man City, Barcelona, PSG, etc. He is that good. But then again, Ricardo joined "little" Leicester City so who knows? I am sure we'd pay more than Atalanta and they might be unable to refuse a 30-40m Euro offer for him given they are financing a new stadium.

[Fightforever]

Him and barnes on one side and ricardo and thuavin on the other. Footballing pornography right there

[CosbehFox]

Bryan we’ve been watching for a long time. 
 

Gosens, it was thought was off Juve
