Transfer Rumour Maximillian James Aarons

[Zezti]

Some insight about Max Aarons before to many on here get carried away. - Used to playing in a relatively high-possession, high pressing side. Not used to having pressure put on himself. Needs to be better defensively given how short he is. If he does move to a bigger club he'll face tall wingers and strikers who would easily win an ariel duel against him. The short]tall concept is relative and could scare some clubs off especially at £20 - £30 mill. Can make blitzing runs and beat opposition players with ease and strong on the ball. Height and constant defensive pressure { like when we go 1-0 up, then go defensive and invite teams on } would in my eyes be a concern. Certainly wouldn't look out of sorts in a Premier mid table side. Just my opinion!

He's 178cm according to stats sites. Coleman 177cm, Reece James 175cm, TAA 175cm...
Bit of a non-issue tbh.

I'm uncertain on the boy but Bayern like him, so he can't be terrible

Because Bayern don't play on the back foot.!

Did we? You refer to his height multiple times.

You said "Needs to be better defensively given how short he is" - he's the same height as Coleman who's been great for us without ever being defensively stellar.

He pulled you up on it by saying he's not comparatively short to his peers.

He's 5'10, i was expecting from that 'insight' he was going to be Bilbo Baggins!

His height is often listed as too tall for some reason. Transfermarkt has he and Jamal Lewis listed at 1.78. Google pictures of them together.

What i'm saying is that Norwich in the Championship play off the front foot. SIXTY NINE goals scored. Same as Manchester City.! Not a lousy FORTY FOUR like us! We need to play on the front foot to use him to his full potential. You / We don't know, what he's like constantly on the back foot. At the moment, we are not a Bayern, Real Madrid, PSG, City. Would'nt fit in this team now because we've no pace going forward. Hopefully summer signings may remedy this. IF ! he does stay with Norwich in the Prem where they will play a lot more on the back foot, later this year, im sure your opinion will alter. Needs to play in a pacey side. All on here entitled to their own opinion. Thats why its a discussion forum.

The internet is so weird. But do some detective work. He's just not.

Out of interest how tall is Digne for comparison

Same height. 5ft10, but someone above saying Aarons isn't, but everything out there says he is.
