SUPERTOON Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 No chance he’s a better player than Maddison imo, but he’s a better fit for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 He’s a similar level to Maddison IMO, but obviously a very different type. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pope Trippier Schar Botman Burn Tonali Bruno Joelinton Almiron Isak Barnes For now, I'd say so. The second XI needs some work, especially at the back, and we still look a winger light to me: Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Dummett Targett Anderson Longstaff Willock Murphy Wilson Gordon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranna Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Now we can understand why Szobo and Maddison were not gonna be signed, they are mostly playmakers. Howe wants a lot of running/intensity on the midfield and on the wings, that's why he chose Barnes and Tonali. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikejaxer Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Got Gordon who was a boyhood Everton fan. Got Tonali who was a boyhood Milan fan. And now Barnes who's a Leicester fan. I've cracked it, it can't be a coincidence Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranna Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 So, it's going to be Gordon, Murphy, Barnes and Almiron on the wings? That's a big contrast with the level of the midfield with Tonali, Bruno and Joelinton. Unless Gordon develops into something we haven't seen yet, the midfielders will have to score a good amount of goals to make the team competitive.
