We keep craving a pacy, pure right winger but Moyes’ best teams have always played narrow with overlapping fullbacks (one sits, one goes as suits the developing play). Bowen’s early seasons at West Ham saw him play closer to the box than the...
We need the players at the following positions urgently, and that's just a bare minimum. We probably need about 7 or 8 more players in total
Right wing / right forward
Right back
Left back
Midfielder
Back up keeper
Apparently other clubs did come in for him in the last two weeks, but the lad stuck to his word even if Villarreal were trying to stir it all up. Bodes well in terms of character and integrity. ;)
We have to get most of our deals this summer right. I am personally not sure Hackney has the athleticism for the PL but he is tidy and has a good football brain. Same for Fellows who is not pacy and is a bit of a one trick pony (step over...
I hope the Douglas Luiz and Hayden Hackney links are real, because it means we're trying to get a passing CM who can actually move the ball around the pitch and pull the strings. Genuinely when was the last time we had one of those? Anyone?
If this is the case why are the likes of Branthwaite signing 5 year deals, instead of going for big money and to play CL football?
And why has Barry forgone CL football to sign for us?
People need get out their head that a players won't sign...
Wouldnt be against mcatee and fellows to be honest.
Mcatee would be a narrower right side attacker or number 10 if needed. Fellows a more traditional winger but looks to have a very good cross on him.
35 million may well get both players.
I think in today's market 30mil for a striker is like spending 5 mil a decade ago. The lack of quality forwards out there in global football is astonishing really. The likes of Wood and even Beto would fetch far more money than we realise. For...
Let us support the lad and help him settle in. I implore folk not to do the usual judgement when he is 10 mins into a game. Start judging after half a season
Says a lot about his character but it does worry me in terms of his technical ability/fundamentals - the fact he was at Sochaux is promising though because think their academy is highly rated
