LestaLad Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Looks like this really depends on them not qualifying for the ucl then really.. 1
Spudulike Posted 15 August 2021 Posted 15 August 2021 Obviously Madueke is not Trincão but it does highlight the difficulty for young highly rated players coming here from euro leagues for big money. Trincão could turn out to be a decent player but yesterday he looked lost and overwhelmed. I don't know whether Wolves are committed to buy him but they also brought on another young player yesterday, Silva, that I believe cost £35m and at this stage I think the jury is out on the value of that deal. It's a massive risk for LCFC to fork out the amount being quoted for Madueke. We did it for Fofana and it worked fantastically well but unless the club are really flushed then I'd say its a risk to far at the moment.

I'm not sure he'd be a huge success as a winger Evidence (not inconsiderable) suggests Ricardo is markedly less effective as a winger or wingback. Considering it was Trincao's first game in the PL I thought he looked pretty good. He looked behind the game a few times but had some flashes of real skill. I'd take him over any of our so-called right wing options in a heartbeat. But by all means, if you want to think you know exactly what a player is going to be based on 70 minutes of one match, go ahead. Edited 15 August 2021 by Deeg67 1

I'm not sure he'd be a huge success as a winger Agree with this. We saw with Barnes yesterday. Not that he had a bad game but every time he got the ball further up the feel, the full back got very close, making it difficult for him to turn. Riccy is great running from deep into space. Riccy would do a job at RW but he is far more effective running from deep.

I think it’s a little different re coming from a European team as he’s an Englishman who’s came through an English academy at spurs since he was a kid… as for Trincao I personally thought he looked very good yesterday especially the second half! Very quick feet and hard to take the ball off, seemed to just ghost past players with ease 4

But if we inexplicably don’t get a RW in, there might be times when Castagne or whoever covers the RB and we have to bump Ricky P forward. It’s not an option id be hesitant in doing and probably one of the best ones available in our current situation.

I disagree because the only evidence is from last season, where by the way the evidence also suggested he wasn’t very good anywhere. im not ruling him out until we’ve seen him there when he is actually fit. He looks like he has the strength to take players on again now so it is well worth a test at some point.
