Nine Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Zapata looks to be a no goer then, it was nice to dream for a day or two. Botman/Carlos also look like they really are dead and we arnt going to try again. Still a possibility with Lingard since we have 1 loan left after Targett. Could easily still be a big suprise by tonight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufc4eva Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 It does look like the team is strengthened as a whole and that might benefit a few of the existing players. 2 new full backs, centre half, midfielder and striker have arguably been improved. Wilson slots back in and players we have signed further back could improve possession and recovery. From what I have seen of Targett he works hard and is tidy in possession, he's a decent signing for where we are, along with Burn and Trippier it gives our defence different dimension. Joelinton, Bruno and Shelvey/Willock looks more balanced and may help the other three on attack Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really need someone on the right to take pressure off ASM and a fucking rapid goal poacher to latch on to Bruno G's fucking amazing throughballs. Just let Trippier do it. Crossing for Wood and Jow, with Willock arriving in the middle for a knock down and ASM arriving far post for any that Wood misses.

Trippier is top quality and can just as easy recycle it through the middle. I think our attacking options [without thinking about injuries, touch wood] are impressive. We've still got our little superstar ASM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 (edited) With Ekitike and Lingaard in the balance, we should be going all out for Origi. No time to waste. Edited January 31, 2022 by Jesse Pinkman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only decent shooter in the midfield is Shelvey sadly, ASM will still be in the "try everything, people moan" mode. If we get a RW and a ST that can take away focus from him on the left we will see whole other player and an insane amount of increase in chances from Bruno G looking at his tally for those oh so damn amazing passes. But whatever keeps us up at this point, I just want a clean wash of the whole lot Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about creating opportunities and attacking with structure. I also wouldn't start with Fraser. His energy in the last 20 mins would be essential to my game-plan, once Trippier has exhausted himself. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Wouldn’t even be surprised if we didn’t end up with Lingard or Ekitike but some name that’s not got a lot of traction right now. Definitely think there’s one more surprise in store Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
