Lucas Paqueta investigated by FA for alleged betting breaches

i really rate paquetà, hes really good tecnically and pacier and stronger physically than bernardo. Lacks his football brain of course but that can improve under pep

Foden can def take over Bernardos role in the long run. He’s perfect for it.

Has the ball control, vision, football iq, passing ability and workrate to dominate in this role.

It also means he's on the ball constantly which can only be a good thing for us.

It would be a waste of every single attribute that puts Foden in top 1% of football talents.

Not saying you are wrong, but Im intrigued to hear which attributes you think these are that couldn’t translate well centrally.
 
Looks a great talent, but it’s probably moot as we’re almost certainly not signing another midfielder this summer.
 
He is good but i think we should get him with Bellingham. Because Gundo is also gonna leaving next summer. We need 2 man.

I didn't say they couldn't translate centrally, I said they are becoming less effective as Foden is moved further away from the box. In my opinion he does not have skill and stamina for ball recycling all over the pitch like Bernardo does; he is nowhere level of Gundogan when it comes to pulling strings in the MF.
He is excellent at taking shots from around the box - which he doesn't use as much as I think he should; fast and explosive with the ball, really good positional awareness in the box and his crosses are brilliant.

I think foden can learn how to ball recycle. Add on top of that a goal threat and he’s the perfect fit. He certainly won’t be a winger his whole career.
 
I don't know anything about this guy, but looking at a YouTube, he seems to play off either flank or centrally... With us only having foden, grealish and Mahrez as senior wide men, getting him now would make sense wouldn't it, even if Bernardo stayed? He might be able to take the slack if Bernardo left in a year, but in the meantime add an extra senior wide man.

It would also give Palmer another year of minutes without the pressure of being relied upon, which foden had...
