He ticks all the boxes for what we need. Someone play out wide, is direct and can take on a player. Able to play on either side and allows Coutinho to come and play inside. I hope we do go and just get it done, at least we know this player has the potential to make a real difference unlike last time we went and spent big money.
Seriously hope we get him, he's a class act. I remember when Spurs were heavily linked with him, was worrying that they'll get him, glad he went to Anzhi in the end. Would be a great addition to the squad
Wow - I mean its hard to even buy into this after the Suarez 'quotes' from yesterday - please let this be the one that goes through!!
If we had a choice (ignoring moves and circumstances etc) who would you guys prefer? Willian, Henri Ryan, Bernard or Eriksen...?
Henri Ryan had a better record in the same team as Willian so would be top, albet playing in a different position. Bernard has potential but unproven in England, and players coming straight from Brazil with no European experience seem to struggle more so would be bottom. Henri Ryan Willian Eriksen Bernanrd
Don't know enough about them all to answer, I've seen the most of Willian though which is why I'm most excited about this one They're all great players and would all add quality to the team, however I don't know enough about them all to compare.
'We are hearing reports that Valencia left-back Aly Cissokho has finalised a loan move to Liverpool. The 25-year-old was believed to be a target for Sunderland. by Adam Bate 11:06 PM' Just got that from the live transfer clockwatch off the Sky Sports website.
I would absolutely love us to get Eriksen but Coutinho would have to play wide. Willian and Eriksen are very close for me because of the position he plays allowing Coutinho to go central. From a team perspective: 1) Willian 2) Eriksen 3) Henry Ryan 4) Bernard Personal preference: 1) Eriksen 2) Henry Ryan 3) Willian 4) Bernard
Surely you want what's best for the team, therefor your personal preference should match the team preference
I meant personal preference as in how I rate the individual players. Of course its about what is best for the team and that would be Willian AND Eriksen
Before Coutinho joined there is no way I'd have entertained that so I feel there would be a bit of biased judging on my part if I agreed with you
