is it not more that Brentdord are good? They don’t let any of our runs go unmarked, win a good number of duels and get plenty of bodies around our wingers.
I’ve been a big fan of his, and I think he is directly responsible for us staying in the league during the Bruce era, but I don’t think his fitness will hold up in an Eddie Howe team.
Some good dm options available in the summer Lavia, Ugarte, Palhinha, Kone, I trust Eddie’s judgement but it would be disappointing to end up with McTominay.
I think a lot of the stuff he does goes unnoticed. He does a fair amount of decoy runs especially when playing further forward. Not everyone will notice that
