He never got turned. The slow cvnt can’t turn, except in stages and thats more of a manoeuvre. Edited 22 March 2021 by ARM1968 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpy old git Posted 23 March 2021 Share Posted 23 March 2021 (edited) I think we need another attacking midfielder someone who can see a pass and open up teams that park the bus and as back up to Maddison, maybe someone like Buendia, Cantwell or Gio Reyna's who would cost more though!

KDH coming back, Sowah fro. Leuven and Tavares will become part of our squad depth. A striker and a free transfer are perhaps all we can afford. To overcome a team parking the bus requires moving the ball quickly when we have managed to drag our opponents out of position, but it is a problem we are still struggling to get to grips with that.

I think this will be position 3 or 4 in the priority of transfer this summer. 1) striker 2) right winger 3) left sided centre half 4) ACM It all depends on outgoings and what the plans are for Dewsbury-Hall, Sowah and Tavares. All 3 could conceivably be used next season which would suggest another ACM or right winger potentially less of a priority. Likewise selling Choudhury is likely to see us going for someone more defensive minded or box to box such as Sounamare from Lille and then the likelihood of an ACM as well is probably remote. Wouldn't be surprised to see someone who is a right winger and can play in the Maddison role. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would have been a great signing for more attacking depth, but given that Porto recently beat Juventus in the Champions League is perhaps not that surprising that he's opted to stay.

Jazzy_Jeff Posted 23 March 2021 Share Posted 23 March 2021 I wonder if this enforced change of system with affect our plans going forward? If we persist with the system the following players weren’t available Sunday: Ricardo - Wingback JJ - Centreback/Wingback Maddison - Number 10 Barnes - I think he could play wide, 10 or 9 (in a two) If 3-4-1-2 is how we continue to play we are possibly only 1 or 2 players short from having a strong squad going into next season 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerard Posted 23 March 2021 Share Posted 23 March 2021 How about Dominic Berardi as a solution to our RW problem. 26yo and still at a mid table Serie A side in Sassuolo, a wonderkid who lost his way in his early 20's and now looking to fulfil his potential now he has matured to his mid 20's. https://worldfootballindex.com/2020/11/domenico-berardi-sassuolo-italy-development-goals-de-zerbi-transfer/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not having the best time at ManU and rumours they are looking to offload. Broken player with bags of potential, a player that fits the mould Rodgers has spoken about. Confidence player who needs an arm round? On over 200k a week at United, they reckon closer to 250k. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murphy Posted 23 March 2021 Share Posted 23 March 2021 Are we going to be disappointed this summer? I see all these names being bandied about but surely we're not going to be spending much dough after posting a £67m loss? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't then I think it'll be less than £30m 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban.spaceman Posted 24 March 2021 Share Posted 24 March 2021 (edited) Did some research on @Ric Flair’s new POITRA (player of interest to rave about) Patson Daka... RB Salzburg bought him direct from a Zambian club called Kafue Celtics, about 50ks south of Lusaka. Their badge seems remarkably... familiar... It’s even the same bloody font!!

He was wanted by a lot of clubs for the past two transfer windows, it comes down to if we can convince the player - also whether or not we can make CL to afford him.
