KaKa Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 2 hours ago, SUPERTOON said: The Dieng one is strange. By all accounts he’s 5th choice at Marseille and apparently turned up for pre season overweight and out of shape. I’ve never seen him before, I usually rely on @KaKa and @McCormick for good information on these players, not sure if you lads know much about him ? Haven't seen much of this guy at all. so don't really know his game. Seems to be highly thought of though. I like the Ramos link a lot better. Think he look sideal for the current system we play.

As in will we still need another wide player or will he cover it ? Ramos is a striker that links play and then gets in good positions to finish. He can also play as a second striker or an attacking midfielder dropping off another striker that looks to get in behind more. He'd be able to play as our lone forward in the 4-3-3 really well, but could also play off Callum Wilson at times if we want to be more aggressive going forward. He doesn't play as a wide forward.

Seems like a great time to pick him up as he's seemingly coming into his own now, and would have a really good season with them as a full time starter if he stayed, but it just so happens they want a different type of striker and so we can take advantage of that. Mostly played in and around Darwin Nunez last season and made some waves, which is when we first probably noticed him, as we were looking at Darwin for a while.

Best played as a striker though I’d imagine (he’s deceptively really good at heading). To make a lazy comparison he’s a bit like Perez but better imo.

There's so much great info out there on players, aside from watching them, and yes I do look at a bunch of that stuff for sure. Did see a fair bit of Ramos for Benfica last season too though as I was wanting to check out Nunez who we were being strongly linked with. Now, I must admit, the main reason I did even notice Ramos name initially when watching those games, was due to having signed him on FM a couple of years back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 2 hours ago, McCormick said: The rawest of raw players. Good energy, pressing, attitude and great physical attributes but he has a bit of Joelinton about him in that he never really seems to strike the ball cleanly. There’s a player there and, for 12 or so million, he’d be a massive bargain imo. That's a shame. I did like his all round game,, he looks quite powerful, but the last thing we need is another striker who can't hit the ball cleanly. Time to go all in on Ramos.
