    I would say more than 24/25 and it becomes difficult for coaches to put on high quality training session. Even 24 is awkward. If you take the 3 keepers out you still have 20 outfield players to work with. So much of coaching these days is game related situational stuff. Often in 6v6 or 8v8 situations. That is down to wanting everyone exposed to the situation. Big numbers are just really difficult. I can see Pep wanting 21, that to me feels optimum. Lets face it we arent facing Euro competition and only 16 players can ever get on the pitch. Players sat in the stand, is a price not worth paying for high quality training imo.

    I generally haven’t actually watched him enough to form a full opinion, I just know he’s good and the goals speak for themselves

    @Scout73 @JimHeron92 @SourPatch2 might be more inclined

    I’d still like to see him play as part of a front pair.

    He's everything. Quick, Strong. 6'2.

    People will roll their eyes at this (correctly), but he's the 15th best striker in the world in the game on EA FC 25. Same rating as Gyokeres and only one less than Isak. That was coming off a season being top scorer in La Liga mind.

    That's just a computer game and based on one year ago, but they obviously use real data and performances to grade players.

    Right kick me off the thread if this info isn’t right, Artem Dovbyk is a Sunderland Player, (if passes medical).
    My mate 100% confident

    When everyone was buzzing with potentially signing Mikautadze earlier in the window, would Dovbyk/Openda be a bigger coup? (If it's one of them)

    Don't really watch European footy

    Quite a throwback. Has something like 15 goals from inside the 6 yard box in the last 2 seasons. His ability to create space for himself is what makes him good, through movement, little sharp touches and changes of direction when he's on the ball, the way he moves defenders with his arms when in the box.

    We shouldn’t be signing him because he should be playing for a top end side, he really should've went to Atleti not Roma last summer.

    We’ve resigned Danny Graham. 3rd time lucky.

    As an aside, I seen a mental stat the other day that Sesko only had 6 shots from inside the box last season (or something very similar to that) absolutely mental for a £75mil striker

    If Wilson is away, we’d easily double our money on him.

    Savvy.
