He's legitimately one of the best ball winning midfielders in the league Like it's not even a joke, he wins absolutely everything. Cannot wait to see him with a bit of talent supporting him.

Would have banked Gayle to have grabbed one this half tbf

Krafth momentarily phasing into Cafu.

I only watched like 4 or something, was he really THAT bad?

Bamboozling that anyone can watch us the past couple of month and claim Joelinton is a shite footballer like

Remember Oliver was touted as the same back then. Paid next to fuck all attention the past couple years so not sure where he's at now like

Clattenburg was regarded as the best in the league before he fucked off the SA.

Exactly this. £25m for Trippier is absolutely nothing for what we're getting. He ticks every box that we need to stay up. It would be insane to miss out trying to low ball them.

Completely depends on who else is there like. I would 100% start Joelinton in this side as we're soft as shite in the middle (in reality they would both start)

He's fucking tiny as well. EDIT: Not that I wouldn't take Lamptey like Just not over Trippier

£15m is an absolute steal. £25m is still a no brainer. Saod it before but Trippier looks in really good shape, his age isn't a massive issue imo.

Not sure how accurate it is like but according to WhoScored they've played him across the whole midfield like. Has 3 goals and an assists in 5 games when played behind the striker?

Aye I know little about him in fairness so my opinion is near enough worthless but CDM is a position I really want us to go out on.

Berge doesn't seem to have played a great deal over the last few years like?

it's an oxymoron man. Obviously murdering people in the street is juxtaposed with world peace.

There's arguments that it's good for lower league sides but as an actual sporting competition the League Cup is pretty pointless.

I know it's Christmas, Stan, but what do you get out of being a relentlessly contrarian bore?

I don't know what it is, but I think we'd be a step closer to world peice if we publicly executed people who speak like them twats. It's like some weird self-absorbed tech nerds trying to talk like a 90s Californian skateboarder or summit. "Like I didn't know what I was going to do with this creative space but I knew it was going to be FUCKING RAD."

His best position looks to be as a ball winning midfielder, him adding goals and assists to that would be nice but it's hardly the expectancy of his role in the team. Absolutely pointless still judging him as a striker.

He's not is he?

Not suggesting we try to buy either of them or out like just examples

That seems a bit fantastical though. Do you think that if we had Raphinha and Maddison or something that they'd be standing about confused as where to be when ASM is on the ball?

Eh? I'm not trying to start a pissing contest you know? ASM's end product is hit and miss and he makes the wrong choice now and then but numerous times in the past couple of weeks our counter attacks have broken down because Wilson is the only one in sight with his back to goal. We have no threat coming from the right wing and the lack of goals in the centre of the pitch is blatantly obvious.

It's depressing watching him create a bit space and there to be absolutely nobody in sight who seems to know what to do or where to be. It's why I think a winger on the other side of the pitch and a goalscoring CAM/CF are a must.

Nothing gets me harder than a CB pinging a 70 yarder like. If that 'scout report' is a fair reflection of how he is on the regular then it's a no brainer.
