Jas10 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 1 hour ago, TRO said: The confusing thing for me is.....many of us agree Dougie is not a defensive midfielder, just deployed there, while we sorted ourselves out. yet we still talk about him as if he's a no6 ......If he goes, we are losing a No 8 imo. Unless Nakamba is capable of playing alongside Kamara in certain games, we do need another defensively capable midfielder......BK will find the going tough, if we don't provide him with some help. Midfield needs to have a robust tone to it.....for us to improve. 57 minutes ago, duke313 said: Currently we have Kamara, McGinn, Ramsey, Luiz, Sanson, Nakamba, Chuk and Tim for midfield, that's 8 players for 3 positions, we only need 6 so if we sign a new CM then three are surplus to requirements: Kamara/Nakamba McGinn/Ramsey New CM/ 1 of Luiz/Sanson/Chuk/Tim Sorry but Nakamba is not good enough, not of the required standard/quality if we genuinely want to progress and become a much better team. He doesn’t have the physicality either nor the quality on the ball and in the pass… not a young player and unlikely to improve much.. We need a better option, without a doubt from my POV. If we do that, I’d be happy to sell him. Despite his good points and the few positive performances. He’s a good guy but if we really want to become a formidable team, we need better players in the side… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should be replaced, but for now he's back up to Kamara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely we'll play 40-42. By contrast, the European sides play nearly half as many again. We don't need a squad as big as theirs, and if we have one all it will achieve is disharmony from miserable players. The good news is that out of the 8 listed in the initial post, Iroegbunam is 100% definitely going to be going out on loan, so it's really 7. But I agree with the OP that buying any more necessitates selling or loaning somewhere between 1 and 3 others. We better not only play 40-42 games next season. Cant be unlucky again with drawing the top clubs in early rounds. Well I mean we can, but it's not likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’d be delighted if we strengthen so well that we could offload these kinds of players and they are no longer needed. You’re likely correct but we’ll see… Edited July 1, 2022 by Jas10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

messi11 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Power is with Luiz, He just needs to stay 1 more season at Villa to get a mega signing on fee at his new club. I doubt he wants to leave tbh, Makes more financial sense to him if he stays the 1 more year and take the mega pay day Edited July 1, 2022 by messi11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He won’t be frozen out as long as he is here and committed to performing for the team. If he starts kicking up a fuss and becoming unsettling for the other players then yes, it could become quite difficult. However i don’t think that’s in his nature to behave in such a way.

Maybe froze out is the wrong phrase, drop down the pecking order is maybe more appropriate. If we sign another CM, along with McGinn and Ramsey that's 3 players ahead of him. His game will be significantly reduced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody has confused me for having psychic powers because of it. He was right about one player possibly because he had actual information, and he enjoyed the notoriety he received, so he's continued making things up since. Notice how the time you give him credit for being correct, he NAMED the player? Nothing but mysterious bullshit hints since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
