Still signing Pedro by all accounts

Pedro is the understudy to Almiron, the exciting option from the bench we lack. Isak is the new No. 9 in waiting.

All we'd be missing - and this is being super greedy, but why the **** not - is a better CM than Willock (i.e. Gallagher or Paqueta) to give us Willock from the bench and shunt Longstaff out of sight. Then at a push a right sided Centre Back, if we need one (depending on the Scots lad we got and Kell Watts).

Makes sense because all news is showing that Pedro's offer was accepted. Don't think we would have let them accept an offer if we were gonna say "**** it we have Isak now"

We're almost certainly playing 4-3-3 now, it's ingrained I reckon. The weak link so far has been CF, RW and RCM. Isak solves the first, Pedro becomes understudy to Almiron who has solved the RW problem himself, which leaves RCM - and, at a push, RCB. Gallagher would be ideal in RCM, he's better than Willock and WAY better than Longstaff. But I don't know if Howe sees Anderson as having enough to sort that out?

Would RCB become a priority, because we have Schar/Lascelles, or do we leave it at Isak/Pedro now?

Isak plus Pedro would be ideal. Gives us way better options & cover than we have now.

Botman
Pope
Targett (permanent)
Isak
Pedro

Plus a couple of youngsters.

Now that would be a very good transfer window indeed.

Anything else of note (Gallagher / Paqueta / Maddison, etc.) Would make it mental.

Did anyone watch Isak against Barca? Some are saying he was immense.

Anyone can comment?

Hopefully Anderson will start tonight.

I disagree that Gallagher is better than Willock. I think there are about the same.

Have you actually watched him play?

More to the point, have you actually watched Wood "play"?

Cant say I have seen much of him as he’s in La liga and doesn’t play in CL which is only real time see much of the foreign players tbh.

Just going by his goal scoring record. 33 in 105 in La liga isn’t brilliant but maybe potential there.

See how he adapts to England as tricky coming from Spain at times.
