Rafalove Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 If we could get Tomori here, that would be some signing. Would love Kamara and Eriksen on a free transfer too. Really don’t want Nunez. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think wages would prove an issue with him as he’s already on £50k a week at Lyon, if he’s happy with us doubling that then it’s possible but generally I think his agent would be haggling for more.

McCormick Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 Paqueta is lush but, if I’m honest, if we’re only getting one big money midfielder I’d rather have someone more sturdy ala Philips or Sangare. Harsh on Joelinton (and possibly Willock) but in an absolute dreamworld we’d have a midfield 3 of: Paqueta Philips and Bruno. Never gonna happen but man that would be crazy.

I know we’ve been after him before. We allegedly enquired about him in January, so it wouldn't be a massive shock if we went back in for him. It'd be interesting to see how we fit him in though. You'd imagine Bruno would take Shelvey's position and Paqueta would come in for Willock. Edited April 19, 2022 by The Prophet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I reckon we do like Paqueta but we won't be paying more than we did for Bruno and I suspect Lyon will want more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 I'd personally prefer we side a more sturdy central midfielder and get creativity in the form of wide players - ideally with pace. Paqueta is a good footballer but I'm not convinced of signing that kind of #10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the look of Paqueta, but I agree a combative midfielder like Amadou Haidara alongside Bruno would make us look very strong in midfield. As an alternative to Paqueta, but still creative would Fabian Ruiz of Napoli not be a more all round option in a midfield 3 ? I’ve seen him linked but maybe he would have CL teams after him.

The Prophet Posted April 19, 2022 Share Posted April 19, 2022 The problem is that there's still no where near enough goals in our forward players. We probably need an attacking mid, a right winger and a forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, people have said on here that Paqueta can play wide positions but his natural position defo looks like a #10 to me. We should prioritise a CM over an AM, along with RW and ST.
