duke313 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 I'd like us to look at Ademola Lookman, he'd be perfect in that second striker role Bailey is playing in. Has had a somewhat mixed time in England when he was younger, but is having somewhat of a resurgence at Atalanta toping their G + A this season, and still only in mid 20s. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrishVilla10 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Pedro Gonccalves, chukweze or nico Williams a right back and a centre back and I think we’ll set for next season. I still think Konsa could potentially move out to the right and become the third cb when we’re in possession. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to agree with you and @IrishVilla10 on this one. Pity as you say, great set pieces but probably not enough to the rest of his game for where we’re trying to get to. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the price and for his intended position (in the double pivot) - I think just not a good fit. If we didn't have Kamara/Luiz, and didn't have other greater needs, would probably be a good target but as it stands, we need a 3rd rotational player in the pivot and the money spent up front and at RB.

duke313 Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 JWP would have been a perfect fit when Smith was her and we had Grealish winning free kicks. We’ve moved on and need something different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't buy him for the double pivot, he might be good as a wide midfielder..... I wouldn't go for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they tried to play JWP as a number 10 against us and it just looked really out of place. Needs the play in front of him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody did it a few years back for every PL manager…just googled it for you although I realised afterwards that now I’m going to get some interesting adverts sent to me on the internet for a while after that search…d’oh it went through each manager in the Twitter thread.

KMitch Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 2 hours ago, paul514 said: Here is one to keep the conversation flowing..... If you had to buy 3 players from the bottom 8 teams so that excludes Palace as they 100% aren't going down now they have 33 points...... Who would they be bearing in mind what we need so not just the three best players? Had to buy at Premier League market prices? None of them... There are better options abroad for cheaper or we could be shopping for a better caliber of player for the same price. If you put a gun to my head and forced me to pick or these were the only players we could sign somehow: James Maddison - Would be that creative force we've needed at times in games where Buendia/JJ goes missing or gets muscled off the ball too easily. Ruben Neves - If Kamara continues to have injury problems for us, we'd be set up very well with another class DM that can also pick a pass. Jordan Pickford - If we lose Martinez this summer, he's going to be very hard to replace. I don't think Pickford is as big of a meme as England fans think he is and he would be a very solid choice/cost effective choice to replace Emi from a shot stopping point of view, but I'm not sure how good he is with the ball at his feet, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
