Yeh,I get the concern. There were times last season when Patto worried me,...his reluctance to come for a high ball and,in particular,his distribution. However,without his brilliance,we'd have lost at Wembley. Moore just seems solid to me....we haven't seen him a lot,but he seems capable. All that being said, a great goalie could be the difference between us stopping up or not,so I wouldn't be against an upgrade,I just don't see it as important as a centre-back and a striker.
Yeah I agree, Anderson better as an all round player, Mcatee is decent but never stood out for me - think he would be better placed a move abroad With Gibbs white staying seems like them just bulking up squad for Europe Wouldnt mind him here as an option like but probably not at that price - Loan with option if anything
Hopefully. Watching highlights of Xhaka when he's been at Leverkusen he should give the forwards plenty of opportunities alone.
You want to go to ground in the prem tbf. You need to make sure you're doing a triple somersault to get anything out of the refs though
He's going to get a lot of nudging from these PL defenders,and if he goes down everytime,they'll control him.
had a lot of nudging from Ampadu at Leeds and turned him and finished it great. He will impress for me
He just needs to watch a few videos of Gordon and Bruno from up the road to see how it's done. They seem to have mastered how to win free kicks from nothing.
Ampadu is ****e to be fair though not quite the same as turning the likes of VVD, Saliba and Dias lol. He defo needs to play on contact though, you don’t get rewarded for staying on your feet in the modern game.
Also with VAR watching every move, any shirt pull that they could have got away with in the champ won't apply here as much. Teams loved dragging Isidor because he was so quick
Anderson was so much better in my opinion. In fact I would go as far as saying I thought he was the best central midfielder in the tournament.
Stefan Schwarz (Valencia), Lorik Cana (Marseille), Darren Bent (Spurs), Stephane Sessegnon (PSG), John O'Shea/Wes Brown (Man Utd), Emanuele Giaccherini (Juventus) are some of the biggest in my memory but this is right up there with those, perhaps better than most of these considering we're newly promoted.
