Confirmed Signing Merlin Rohl

[formerly manx toffee]

Is he doing a medical ?

 

[ToffeeTim]

Know absolutely nothing about this player. All I can see is he is a big tall central midfielder so I can see why Moyes is interested and we do lack a bit of height in the middle of the pitch.

Seems an expensive way to let Armstrong go on loan tbh but whatever.

Yeah that’s the only reason we are buying him.

 

[toffeeblue9]

We've literally played a double pivot with a number ten/second striker in every game

Nope

 

[DaChunk]

Not a huge amount of info out there on this fella? Who doesn't have a youtube video in 2025? Niasse vibes

Is he doing a medical ?

Dunno but people saying he’s arrived here so you’d expect so.

 

[MACCA75]

Yeah that’s the only reason we are buying him.

But he’ll likely take his place in the squad.

 

[ElGato]

Nope

I've watched every game. We've played two deeper midfielders in a double pivot with either KDH or Alcaraz playing more advanced in a ten. Plenty of rotation amongst the three behind the striker on the ball, moving to a 4-4-2 off the ball when the ball is in their half and a 4-5-1 when the ball is in our half.

Google the line-ups if you want a second opinion

 

[Victus]

He's magic you know....

 

[Daveysgingerlovechild]

Is he any good? Yeah, he's magic lad.

I'll get my coat...

 

[millow1878]

But he’ll likely take his place in the squad.

But we probably like him as a player long term, have been tracking him for a while and because he’s a different player to Armstrong.

Imagine being (virtually) unintentionally & Ironically named after the engine that was key to (probably) pruning a large part of your family tree.

I've been at all 4 mate.

At Leeds and Wolves we've played 4231, we've shifted to 433 during the games against both Brighton and Mansfield. KDH went as the left sided number 8 in the 2nd half against Brighton, Iroegbunam as the right sided number 8 and Gueye sitting. Against Mansfield, when we shifted to this it was Garner as the 6.
