Really? I disagree strongly with that.
You wouldn't replace his set pieces but there's plenty of high energy CM's that don't really excel at too much in open play out there.
He's hardly N'Golo Kante is he? I also don't really get where this 'great leader' stuff comes from as I don't see that personally - I actually don't think we have any great leaders which is why we get dicked a lot and heads drop regularly. There's a reason it's Villa after him and not one of the big boys.
Whereas players capable of scoring 20 top flight goals in a season are incredibly rare for a club like ours. We've only had 3 in the past 30 years haven't we? Unless I'm missing someone obvious.
Yeah, I really wouldn't want to lose him (especially to Villa) but he's not irreplaceable.

Agreed, he's no Beyonce*

*in my defence that the word "irreplaceable" makes me think of Beyonce, I have spent 19 of the last 25 years living with a girly woman and daughter before my daughter left home. The last 6 years I still have to listen to Mrs No7 whilst she is cooking.

Don't know him, but sounds a very Saints signing (and he's Austrian too).
He wanted to leave United, and as noted Chelsea under Mourinho, foolishly couldn't be bothered with bedding in younger (very) talented players
20 years old, good 'upbringing' (Bayern), looks a talent at a smaller club that could be developed further with us.
Joining us might harm his development due to reduced game time unless Vestergaard definitely goes and/or we move to 3 at the back
Transfermarkt suggests he can cover both full backs roles as well...
But I’m not sure he would fit our kind of full back as you don’t get many super pacy 6’2” full backs that bomb up the flanks ...
But if the links are true it does show we are on the alert in Vestergaard’s position

Exactly this. I wouldn't expect it to happen unless Vesty leaves, but if he does, it's good to have someone lined up.
I have no doubt we have been keeping a very active eye on CB and striker given our position with Ings and Vestergaard.
He’s **** and will be sent out on loan in a season
He’s not a natural left back from what I understand. I wonder if the instructions are to play him there
The rest is nothing solid at all
I do wonder about these players we are extending contracts of and then sending on loan to clubs playing at a level far below what we need of them. Vokins, N’Lundulu, Ferry. I guess it is because lower league clubs don’t have the money to sign them?

Has anyone even seen a rumour about Elyounoussi? It seems to have all gone quiet on that front.
I know Ralph said he wanted to take a look at him before making a decision, maybe three lack of noise suggests we are keeping him.
I was hoping he was someone we may get a few £m for to invest elsewhere
