    Jeremie Frimpong, anyone? Has a £35m release clause that expires in about a week. Rumours he wants us but do we want another RB?

    Given that Slot will not have the benefit of seeing half his team for a while yet, I’m not sure that anyone really knows what we will need in his preferred system. Frustrating but I’m sure that all will become clear…..

    …..after the window closes <whistle>

    I think he will know what he wants. It’s not like he hasn’t seen this team play to know where the weaknesses (and strengths) are. I haven’t seen Frimpong play and wondered whether he looks a good fit - to us fans.

    of course he will know what he wants. I’m not sure he’ll 100% know what he’s got in his preferred system. Horses for courses and all that….

    Wasn’t he billed as their greatest asset?

    Frimpong is very different to TAA. More a winger converted to FB so loves to get forward. Scored and assisted shed load from rwb last year. Would offer serious pace

    Cant comment on his defensive abilities but as a team bayer where brilliant last year

    To be fair... Other than his origin story that sounds pretty similar to TAA. But who would you play in a cup final with both available?

    I don't mind Slot having difficult choices to make... But there's positions I see as more critical.

    Why did you say this then - “Given that Slot will not have the benefit of seeing half his team for a while yet, I’m not sure that anyone really knows what we will need in his preferred system.” <whistle>

    You’ve confused me, which is quite easy to do these days. <laugh> Reading your comments it looks like you’re saying both, he doesn’t know what he wants and he does know what he wants.

    He’s a kid. Seen some clips and looks like lives a dribble and quick feet. Seems comfortable using both feet as well which is encouraging at that age.

    Very highly rated - along similar way Musiala was so if turns out anything like him very encouraging. Apparently massive coup if we do get him so encouraging that the faith shown in youth already at the club is helping to attract other top talent.

    Remains to be seen if that youth ability translates into first team though. Hopefully he’s more sterling than Pacheco
