proper hack now reporting. following a more "real" sequence of events aka player given permission by his club
Apparently, AMC chose Liverpool over Man Utd whereas Mount chose Man Utd over Liverpool... If true, I know who got the better side of the deal...
no thuram is the no 6. kone is a yellow card machine at no 8. get all 3 for the price of one bellingham
who? Henderson? aged. Thiago? aged? Fabinho? prematurely aged? Elliott? not a cm Jones? meah Bajcetic poor lad need to recover. Morton? not fast enough. If jimmy has his way the first 3 will be straight out the door along with milner.
i think Mac will be the left CM. Someone who is excellent at retaining the ball, solid defensively off the ball. Despite thuram’s size, he’s actually better offensively than defensively. So he could be the one to play RCM to progress us up the pitch. With that said, both are versatile and young enough to be play different roles.
Arsenal cannot agree with West Ham after Declan Rice agreed personal terms. Declan Rice's price is beyond Liverpool too. Maybe Rice have to remain with West Ham.
Seems like the McAllister deal is going through, excellent start to the transfer window. Just what we needed.
Strikes me as very much a Gini replacement finally. Was an interesting article on sky. Essentially saying he is in top 10 for both through balls and possession won in middle 3rd. Bruno and KDB top the table for the first, but theirs stats for winning it back are no where need AMC. Rice and Rodri win the ball back the most, but don’t play anywhere near amount of through balls. He also ranks in top 10 for possession won in final 3rd. Seems like a proper all round midfielder - how most midfielders used to be in the 90a/2000s when you played 442 and the midfield 2 had to be able to do everything. Proper versatile so could play any role in the midfield really as well. Play takes a good free kick and pen
Hendo and Thiago will see less minutes but Fab,Elliott and Curtis are still very much part of the picture. Hopefully Bajcetic too
I'd like to see... Fab New Macallister Or Macallister New Thiago As the main starters next season. Bajetic will get games at times as will Elliott but Jones and Hendo will be back up to all that imo.
Yes, what's impressed is his consistency, does very little strong during the game even when he's not having a stand out performance and he's got a good injury record. Touch wood. Very much a Gini type player.
from what i've seen of Thuram he seems to normally play from the left though from the limited amount i've seen (mainly youtube vids) if anything Kone looks a better fit for us imo .
