Guest Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Barton and Routledge replaced by Cabaye and Gervinho is a huge upgrade imo. Really still need a good striker which I think we'll get, and if we get one or two others then it's money well spent. Hopefully Enrique is convinced by the plans now if these come off.

Disco Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Pretty sure I've seen Gervinho play as a striker for Ivory Coast. Not as a central 9 playing up top by himself though which is the point I'm making. We still lack the player to lead the line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBG Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Cabaye---Tiote----Nolan Ben Arfa--------Gervinho ----------Gameiro---------- Think that'll be the sort of system anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Just been watching a youtube vid called 'Achille Emana "The Painter" ' - a player we're supposedly after. Cracking talent that we're apparently haggling the price over, would love to see him for us. At 28, still got plenty left in the tank, so hopefully we agree an appropriate fee for him.

TRon Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Seems crazy that Gervinho would consider us ahead of Arsenal so maybe us getting his mate (allegedly) Cabaye has swung it in our favour? Buying in bunches really does pay off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingxlnc Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Gervinho up top on his own would be like Gyan at Sunderland, not an out and out striker. The Bellamy type - we need the Shearer. Would prefer him on the wing, or the right side of a 3. Would LOVE Sturridge as the more central type player. Berbatov would also be lovely in that role - the main man, all that speed and pace around him, for him to finish off. He is probably unlikely however.

AlanSkÃrare Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Gervinho is probably not intended as an out and out striker, couldn't think of a better realistic player for us to put on the right wing. Really happy we're in for him, would be remarkable if we'd get him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 Really does suggest we're not going to be playing 4-4-2 next season like. Gervinho is definitely a 4-3-3 man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
