He fails the being a dick test though.Hakimi is a cross between Couto and Frimpong. So we can have Couto and Frimpong in one player, which is Hakimi.

Ok so this makes a bit of sense to how we have played this season, except that Gvardiol has been that outlet. Maybe we get Frimpong and some games the 3 cb's include Gvardiol or Ake at left back, allowing Frimpong to get high or inside.he basically is like defensive winger, this season mainly marauders on the right side to exploit weakneses with his insane pace, can go inside and outside, very hard to defend against him. Something we haven't had since Ben Mendy maybe. Frimpong defensive input is very hard to say, bcs in Alonso system he has given the license to roam further and be covered by 3 cb's at the back 2 defensive midfielder in Xhaka and Palacios helping out, thus for me he is defensive winger.
Couto is more of playmaking fullback, something a la Cancelo with smaller frame, who is great at build-up and assists and generally poor in defense.
All depends on what Pep wants to do next season, there has been chatter that Pep wants to try a 3-5-2 system again.

We tried it a bit at Spurs with Walker going forwards but he just doesn't have the end product. Making more sense the more i think about this transfer as another option.Been thinking the same thing, especially if Bernie goes and Foden takes that spot on the right but with him floating inside and Frimpong on the overlap.
Nonsense...Maybe but he would need to because our goals against would be huge with Frimpong at FB.
Is this going to end up as a bidding war? If the rags are bidding we aren't winning it.

He's also hugely overratedHe fails the being a dick test though.
