Idrissa Gueye

I compared his stats to Kante (Leicester), and they also defended first, attacked second, so...

But I'm the same as you - 7m is nothing etc

Yeah it's easy to forget Leicester did spend a lot of time defending too. Good point.

 

[ChesterBlue]

The most unambitious signing ever.

 

[GwladysBlue]

These just seem like signings we would already be going for.

Very underwhelming.

So where does this leave Besic, Barry, and McCarthy if this lad signs. Where are Barry and McCarthy anyway?

Besic is made of polystyrene

 

[Moomin]

Gueye - the Clev - Brady

If he's got a clause in his contract then they won't have much choice will they?

Keith Wyness mate, doesn't do detail

Leicester also played the least possession-based football you could think of though.

If he plays to his strengths and in a better team - we've got a decent player for basically pennies. Why not?

aye, that's what i mean.

less you have the ball, more your ball winners can win it. doesn't make too much difference what position you are in the league.

destroyers are useful in any team for sure, koeman used wanyama pretty well

I've recovered from my initial shock at how random this is and realised if this guy signs it makes no difference to me at all.

He was a boyhood blue but his dad likes Arsenals style of play. It could go anyway.

It will when he plays 30 games next season

I know some are saying it could be a good bit of business (if it's actually true) the thing is though, we've already got defensive midfielders in Besic and McCarthy, also linked with Carvalho, another defensive midfielder, how many defensive midfield players do we need?

He obviously doesn't rate the ones we have

Ah, right, I misunderstood

Agreed, anyway, and he did use Wanyama well, good point...

And we win the lot!!!

This strikes me very much as Steve Walsh really wanting this kid. Wasn't he originally his first choice over Kante whilst at Leicester?
