Domenico Berardi

I don’t think we’ve been linked with the winger yet that’s the one! Must be a doku somewhere who can cut in off the right

If you never saw Lenny beat a man with his skill rather than pace you didn’t watch him ?  

Agreed. Lenny took the piss out of many a fullback and left them on their arse. One of our top boys from that era. Glover, Wortho, Weller. Class acts and hero worshipped in the kop. Still miss those days and characters. I lived in Brazil street then and about 20 of us kids wandered to the ground at half time and strolled through the open gates for nothing, happy days. Sorry, got lost in my memories and went miles off topic!!

All true but if we’re buying him as a wide player, did he actually beat a man ????

 

infact, I haven’t seen all Italy’s games but has he dribbled past anyone with anything other than pace ??

With hopefully Barnes on one side being direct, we don't need the same on the other side. Even more so with our overlapping full backs. We're in the market for a narrow winger who can play from the right side, cutting in, and Beradi fits that brief. Not seen enough this tournament to know if he'd be good enough or not but he shown some great touches.

After watching Berardi a couple of times he looks a good player but I can’t see City gambling £30+ million on him, the way Rodgers motivates his players I can see Patson Daka having a go from our right hand side, imagine a front line of Barnes, Vardy, Iheanacho & Daka, never going to happen but would be pretty dangerous…

This would not be a gamble. The only question is can we lure him to the KP? 

 

If we could get Berardi for let's say what we paid for Youri, we should be snapping their hands off. 

 

A lot of people have talked about our weakness being the wings, well here's a top European player who can play in a multitude of positions, both wings as well as more central without actually looking weak in any of them.

 

He also looks like he has a bit of shit-houseness about him when needed which is something we also lack. 

 

It would be be priceless the versatility he'd bring.

.. as usual Rodgers would be mistaken to believe that Daka should be utilised on the right!!!

  If you do not know where to play him, why buy him in the first place.

That would so Rodgers - we luck into one of the more promising #9s in the game, and he decides to be a genius and play him out of position.

[Dahnsouff]

Patson Daka has played on the right wing 6 times, assisting twice. He has played forward 116 times, scoring 68, assisting 24, so I highly doubt he is brought in for the wing, but he may play as a right sided forward inasmuch as Vardy is a left sided forward. 

 

Side note Patson has played left wing twice,scorong once, assisting twice, therefore....

I always used to remember the roar of expectation every time Lenny got the ball. Truly great player

This is exactly what I remember whenever watching Lennie Glover play. I think only Joachim in his early days ever attracted that huge crowd buzz in a similar way. On a different scale to say Mahrez.

Always wondered where @LinekersApples went

[MGLCFC]

To me, this bloke looks strong and technically good. He finds space well and is capable of contributing in the goals stats. Whilst I really rate Albrighton, this player is a serious upgrade IMO. He is stronger, has comparable work rate and delivery, but scores more goals.

[sphericalfox]

Watch us sign him after he scores the winner on Sunday...

My feelings exactly, but going back to 1960. Legends then, and still legends to me now.

Lenny Glover would make most modern wingers look very average. Yet he wasn't the best in the league .Ian Callaghan was even better and Peter Thompson was electric. Times change though and those guys would have been mystified by "play it out from the back" tippy-tappy football.

I can see that.  Inside forward on the right side of a fluid front three.  Barnes, Vardy, Daka.  Could be irresistible.

 

Obviously he was signed as a centre forward but I don't have a problem with him playing along the forward line until he succeeds the great one.  Worth a try, especially if your other options are Perez or Kevin in that system.

Imagine being such a weirdo that you have a vendetta against the only manager ever to win us the FA cup. 
Can’t get my head around it.

.....not a vendetta, Rodgers does make strange decisions at times, winning the F.A. Cup does not erase his tendencies to get this wrong!!!

[Bptiger]

Sorry I watched all it Italy’s games and he did not impress me at all , was pushed of the ball a lot and I doubt Rodgers would like his work rate in defence, just my veiw

Tell me a manager we’ve had that hasn’t made unusual picks or tactics? It is a vendetta if you read his previous posts.

[marbles]

Have I missed a game ?

Has Rodgers played him on the wing, and he look horrible ?
