One thing that is massive if we sign him is having someone centrally in the last third that is a massive threat, and not alone, playing with Isak further ahead. With JP getting the ball high up the pitch it will force the opposition defence to be dragged out of shape which itself will give Isak much more space in the more central areas. JP often takes a man out with a first touch and turn which will give us and Isak so much more space and also not being forced to come too deep. We all know how good Bruno’s and Tonali’s quick and progressive passes can be, and having Pedro there much closer to them will make it much easier for them to do this more often. As it is nice when we only have Isak centrally he either can get very isolated or has to come quite deep for the build up. This often results in that he can’t really be a a threat centrally as often as we’d like. With Isak coming deep it also indirectly makes us become more predictable as that often results in us having to go wide all the time because we don’t have a player up there when Isak comes deep.

Henderson starting ffs I know it's only Andorra so the game itself doesn't matter and whoever he picks we'll win, but these are the games to try new things and new blood, or go with the side you want to move forward with ao they get used to their roles. Henderson playing says he figures into Tuchels first team plans, it's unbelievable

Linked with Napoli this morning.

What’s Tomori up to these days?

If Guehi is running down his contract it’s because he’s on his way to Spain. Was mooted as a possible signing for Real: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/promising-premier-league-defender-ready-074000671.html Fits the Alexander-Arnold blueprint.

I was joking with someone this week that AC Milan with no Europe are going to get picked apart with all their decent players getting a move but we'll end up with one of their dodgy centre backs

Linked with Leverkusen and the bald pervert Ten Hag.

A name linked in past, European, so our fans latch onto them. Chalobah still better IMO.

Longstaff as 6th choice midfielder and UEFA quota jobby only.

What’s the fascination with Thiaw? Keep seeing him mentioned but he’s no where near the level we should be aiming at.

Never useless playing at a good tournament and winning. Winning with England doesn’t happen often.

I’d be delighted with Ter Stegen. GKs can be unique where it can be a position you don’t really play yourself into. You either are good or not. 3 years of Ter Stegen is perfectly fine, step up and club will be in a greater position to sign another top goalkeeper by then (ideally need another GK next summer even when we sign one this summer in truth).

No one likes selling a star player, but in a scenario like this I would be on board. Just look at what Villa achieved after selling Grealish, or Liverpool after Coutinho.

Where's the youtube compilation at like.

I think he’d be a really solid signing for what he’d cost how the hell would he be able to cover the other key positions?

😂

Completely agree with you. Very logical signing all things considered. Brighton know how to make a profit though, he’ll take up 1/4-1/3 of the budget I think.

Elanga is a winger and this thread is full of whingers Lovely stuff

Luis Diaz has been made available. He rejected a big money move to Saudi, which was Liverpool's preference for obvious reasons. But Diaz wants to go to Barca, who are not offering anywhere near what Saudi were, and so Liverpool don't want to deal with Barca.

Quite a statement that. But I can see why, I am always really worried about him when we play Brighton.

Nickson is pretty good on transfer targets isn’t he in terms of continental options? Hopefully he can unearth some good options.

Love players who fail at Man U me

I can see him being lethal away from home but don’t see him breaking teams down at home. Still if he’s who Eddie wants (if this is the case) then so be it. I still think it might be a left field signing out of nowhere at LW.

Sell Barnes but keep Longstaff
