xLiaaamx Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 There's nee fucking chance Dummett's playing LWB man, he'd be the worst at it. Honestly, don't see a future for him if we aren't playing 4 at the back. He's shite at LWB and he's poor at CB too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elric Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Can't wait to see him Raiden down that left flank. At least he'll be used to playing in Sub-Zero temperatures as well. Hopefully he won't make a meal of anything. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Unless Dummett and Ritchie are both injured or in need of rotating he won’t play You reckon? Why have we signed him? Rafa’s quotes imply competition and a non-certainty that he will adapt. He was at best second choice for his position out of the limited pool of loan players and he did not feature much for Monaco. You do get players from time to time that come in and don’t play much and I have an inkling he is going to be one of those. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Rafa’s thinking home grown quota for the Champions League in a few years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 He featured for Monaco until Henry benched him. If Ritchie didn't smack that penalty in and we ended up drawing vs Man City I suspect most would want to see Barreca starting ASAP to provide the same attacking threat of PACE that we have on the right side with Yedlin.

TRon Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Carlos Carvalhas on Sky saying he's very good going forward, and got great delivery. Sounds like he's going to give us the wing back option that Lukaku was lined up for, which adds much needed dimension to our squad. Could be a good signing, although he did say he needs to work on his defensive game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tribesman Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 What was he like at Torino? I expect him to be shite because Benitez doesn't have a great history of buying good fullbacks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Carvalhas was raving about Almiron as well btw, reckons he'll be perfect for a Rafa team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Not overly concerned at his defensive work right now, we need goals and creativity so I’m hoping he brings that side of his game and Rafa can work of his defensive discipline. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Any fucker is better than Manquillo and obviously gives decent competition to Dummet, so I really hope he hits the ground running. Gan ern Antoniooo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Parka Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Dennis wise scouting highlights his crossing. Think he will play to rondon strengths. Almiron being left footed also will help us be less one dimensional. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Almiron will be replacing the fast, left-footed Atsu - he’s bringing similar traits to the position, just hopefully a lot better at everything Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 Atsu isn't particularly as quick as he used to be IMO, a player who seemed much faster before his injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
