mozartfox Posted 1 August 2024 Posted 1 August 2024 There is a young offensive midfielder playing for Wolfsberger AC here in Austria. They got him from Chelsea a couple of years back. Worth a look at least, thats if the Recruitment Team have time in between scouring Sagamarkt.com for potential pension top-ups.
Pliskin Posted 1 August 2024 Posted 1 August 2024 Claudio Echevwrri….. can we get Man City to loan him to us?
kingfox Posted 1 August 2024 Posted 1 August 2024 With the link to Ayew infuriating many, as I only piss about on Wyscout all day, I’ve gone to sadistic lengths to find right midfield alternatives who come in similar proximity to him defensively... Jordan Ayew Defensive Duels per90 - 6.94 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 6.62 Surely, SURELY, some of the following are possible for buy or loan... Dario Osorio(Midtjylland) Defensive Duels per90 - 6.53 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 6.98 Facundo Buonanotte(Brighton) Defensive Duels per90 - 9.66 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 8.60 Tatsuhiro Sakamoto(Coventry) Defensive Duels per90 - 7.14 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 7.76 Jonathan Rowe(Norwich) Defensive Duels per90 - 5.76 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 6.11 Daan Rots(Twente) Defensive Duels per90 - 6.97 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 7.47 Daizen Maeda(Celtic) Defensive Duels per90 - 6.15 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 6.00 Facundo Pellistri(Granada/Man Utd) Defensive Duels per90 - 7.37 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 7.44 Assane Diao(Real Betis) Defensive Duels per90 - 6.28 Successful Defensive Actions per90 - 7.83 3

His record last season was above average but nothing special. Started the season with a brace though!
teblin Posted 1 August 2024 Posted 1 August 2024 For me if we are going to have a slight lack of creativity, we need someone who can deliver from set pieces. Not necessarily scoring but corners/crossed free kicks. but scoring from free kicks would be an advantage too.

teblin Posted 1 August 2024 Posted 1 August 2024 Loans are often done closer to the season starting, which I can see us looking at in a couple of positions. 1

That is, if like me you can't see Alves or Golding being PL ready? 2

He’s spot on, the last thing we need are players convinced they are playing regardless of form or application in training. All I would add to that is another creative type of midfielder. One isn’t enough imo 1

Personally I would be willing to give Alves a go - but it doesn’t help when there hasn’t really been much of a pre-season to see him so I can see why a lot of people have a different view on it Might be one where we could look at the left wing competition also being someone who is very capable of playing at 10 as well if needed 1

I agree and I think that is why we should go for Mandela Keita as I think he would be comfortable as competition for both Winks and Wilf (and would probably end up ahead of Wilf quickly in my opinion) Maybe pick up someone like Steven Alzate on a free as well (who I think you have mentioned before) Winks, Wilf, Keita, Alzate, Hamza 1

If not we’ll be in the bottom 3 all season

As others have said, maybe another deep-lying playmaker or CAM is the only thing to add to that. I just hope we get a recognised set piece taker amongst that lot, one of Alfie Doughty, Gabriel Sara, Cameron Puertas or Matt O’Riley would be perfect 🙏🏻 1
