dorsetboy Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 looking through the threads in the transfer forum and seeing linked players and players we have/bought i cant help but think are we missing a real tough powerhouse hard tackling mofo in midfield , someone in the mould of toure,tiote etc etc . mahrez,knockeart,drinkwater,allbrighton,james are all fairly lightweight and small players do you think a big brick shithouse would help ?
Dan Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 As long as they're actually capable of playing football then I won't say no to a bit more strength.
KFS Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 We need an intelligent powerhouse. A player who can break it up and distribute well.
copunk Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 joe coles on his way!!!! not really a powerhouse I know but still
dpjfox Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 so far this pre season weve been linked with a German and Polish "powerhouse", maybe we are actively looking

Yes I would like to see a powerhouse added to our squad. But I certainly wouldn't class Matty James as small or lightweight. To me James seems to come out with the ball nearly every time he goes in for a tackle.
MooseBreath Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 It's not the 1980s anymore, having brute strength and being a bit of a dirty tackler doesn't get you anywhere. We need players with strong technical skills. If they're physically powerful too then great, added bonus, but footballing ability is way more important.
dedlock Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 I am surrounded by Gooners,living in NW London. Most long for another Viera.As the Arse. haven't found one we may struggle. Yes we need that sort of player.
LAprice_ Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 This is assuming that we're going to play 3CMs next season. I can't see us breaking the James-Drinky partnership. : Even if we did play 3 in midfield wouldn't we be more likely to play an attacking player, like we did in the final few games of the season? E.g. James Drinkwater King Or are people expecting it to be something more like: PowerHouse James Drinkwater Either way, I don't think midfield is the most important area we need to strengthen. Maybe we'll sign someone, maybe we won't. I don't think it's essential.
steveherbe Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Maybe we do need a powerhouse..... But Derby need a giant handkerchief, and thats funny
LCFCDannyB Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Mohammed Diame would be as great signing, but cant see it happening
Guest Col city fan Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Having seen George Thorne today, I'd take him in a heartbeat.
Stadt Posted 24 May 2014 Posted 24 May 2014 Mohammed Diame would be as great signing, but cant see it happening [/quote A budget Yaya, would be class but as you said it won't happen
