Imagine saying you had a couple of pints when you actually had 3 or 4. No one would ever do that.

On topic, Ducker in the Telegraph yesterday said we want two CM and two wingers so Dibling and ANO. Does Grealish count as a winger? Probably. If we can get Dibling done I would prefer more pace as our second addition but even with my substantial...

Imagine someone toasting the happy couple at a wedding and there was 5 of them. The phrase "a couple of" typically means two in standard English usage. However, in informal contexts, some people use it to mean a small number, like three or...

No.

and has only recently turned 19

A bit frustrated with the negativity. He is 19, very talented and has had a lot of admirers. Has shown glimpses of what he can do in the PL, even for one of the worst teams ever. We know current prices are insane. He is currently on very low...

Missed 6 games in his career with injuries, think that is another reason we brought him in - with a small squad having players who have great fitness records is a must

Sounds like what Iwobi was doing for us under Lampard. Hopefully that frees up Ndiaye to start his dribbles outside their box rather than the halfway line.

I don't think he's like Garner at all. Garner is more of a deep-lying playmaker who mostly plays on the right, makes long passes and handles set pieces, while KDH is a more explosive box-to-box midfielder who plays on the left side and makes...

I don’t remember seeing him play, but from the videos he appears to be athletic and able to play a decent pass forward, two things we need more of in midfield.

LCM in an 8-type role. Honestly I can see some excellent link up play with Ndiaye happening this season. He'll start over Tim in the first game, I wouldn't be surprised if we played a 4-3-2-1 with LCM-CDM-RCM as KDH-Gana-Garner

Probably most suited to being in a midfield 3 though. I’m still not sure about the balance of our midfield as Gueye likes to press relentlessly. We still need a holding player that isn’t going to lead to us leaving large gaps which I can see...

If, if, these two deals come off, the squad looks a lot nicer. Still 2-4 more signings required after that for me - I'm a realist here, not delusional like some of you. (Don't fixate too much on KDH behind Garner etc. I'm just showing squad depth)

Looks about right to me. I can see Tim and Chermiti going out on loan. I imagine the additional central midfielder, winger and centre back will be loan signings. Right back could be another or a permanent.

Having three giant centre backs on the pitch helps with set pieces too. I also think he wouldn't want to break up the Branthwaite/Tarkowski partnership yet and O'Brien is at the stage of his career where he needs to be playing 30+ Premier league...
