Rasmus Elm

[ToxtethBlue]

A little info on him from one of my Swedish scouts:

'Well he's currently the best player in the Swedish league, by quite a distance I would say, even though he's only 21 years old. I don't know if you watched the U-21 championships but imo he was one of the better players in that tournament. He also is pretty much a regular starter for our senior national team now. Probably our most talented player since Ibrahimovic.

He's usually plays central or right midfield. His best assests is his vision and ability to strike the ball. He's an excellent passer and has a good shot aswell. I guess his biggest downside is his size and physical ability, but nevertheless he's very good at covering the ball.

I guess in the Premiership, I would compare him to Xabi Alonso. Not as good obviously, but I'm sure he will be at his level in a couple of years.'

You have your own club?

 

[Goat]

biggest downside is his size and physical ability

What does that mean?

 

[best little spaniard]

Thats really all is required in any of the transfer threads.
So if someone asks the question best little spaniard asks straight away, and someone replies with Goats answer, we can close the thread and move on.

Can I do it

It's been a common theme of mine throughout the transfer threads

 

[ToxtethBlue]

You have your own club?

No, I just have my own scouts.

I'm well respected in the game, lots of connections.

 

[ToxtethBlue]

What does that mean?

He's a skinny lad maybe?

A bit lightweight.

Yea got it. Bit slow tonight, late night watching some crap.

 

[best little spaniard]

Do you have Moutiho's number

This other guy said he had it, but I don't think he was being entirely truthful.

I think his name was somethng to do with shoes.

 

[best little spaniard]

Yea got it. Bit slow tonight, late night watching some crap.

Bet that's fun

 

[Goat]

Bet that's fun

It wasnt really mate. Everton got beat.

 

[best little spaniard]

It wasnt really mate. Everton got beat.

I really dont know what to say to that

Anyway back on Elm, I reckon he could probably adapt to the PL. He's got the height ad may just need to bulk out a bit, get some upper body strength

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

No, I just have my own scouts.

I'm well respected in the game, lots of connections.

Could be that? More likely to be playing to much CM has made your reality and dreams overlap.

 

[best little spaniard]

Why would playng in Central Midfield distort reality?

 

[ToxtethBlue]

I actually work for 'Football Manager' to be honest, I'm one of the scouts.
