Wharton is the perfect apprentice for Rodri.

Not really, Rodri has at least 5 years left, whoever we buy has to be able to play with Rodri in the same team as an 8 as well as just cover for him.

For me, that’s why we’d need another midfielder in addition to Wharton

Nah not without someone going

Not another midfielder it would be too many, Kimmich as an inverted right back would work. It sounds like we don’t really want Wharton yet, and would need to take him earlier that optimum but we wouldn’t buy 2 players.

Yeah in another reply he says United and Liverpool. I think he’s the Kev replacement would make sense why we’d wait 12 months.

So we are signing a guy with half a season in the EPL, admitted promising, to replace one of the best footballers in the world.
I can understand Musiala or Wirtz.

And besides doesn't he play deeper than Kev

So the dippers and rags are already further up the pecking order, time for Pep to get involved!

 

[robbieh]

To be honest if those two sides are taking a gamble we probably shouldn't be. Apart from being homegrown there are almost certainly better 20 year olds out there.

Would Palace be interesting in Philips?
