Jeremie Frimpong

[Pubteam Lomas]

I think people have misunderstood what I meant when I said he's not a right back.
He's not generally a right back at Leverkusen.
He plays high up the pitch in more of a wing back role.
I think had we had him recently, playing the role that Walker has played, he'd have been perfect for that system.

 

[RayCTID]

I am still very cautious with Frimpong. It could easily turn out another Angelino type of signing.

sounds like Walker is staying from his interviews, doubt we sign a defender outside of a Gomez replacement

Chance missed then at that release clause unfortunately! And he would have counted as homegrown , we got hoodwinked abit with a 3 year contract for Kyle

far better right backs around if we need one later down the line

I just think we’re gonna regret Kyle again next season mate? Don’t get me wrong, been a truly fantastic signing for club but time is time and I’m hoping that Saudi offer comes in and he takes it personally

He was a winger at ours as a youth player, he'd be a great wing back

as long as we get a RW think he's fine in the back line, its if he has to be the wide right output

But he isn’t a Pep defender, we might change how we play a bit but Frimpong is very much a wing back and don’t see us playing like that.
We are fine with Walker Akanji and Lewis. May even end up with Kimmich and he’s much more a Pep fullback than Frimpong is.

Pep is a genius for so many reasons but one is his constant development of tactics. Although I agree it’s a big change from what we’ve seen if he feels we need a different direction going forward he will change it.

He is faster than Doku

Second half goal and assist for Frimpong tonight. Seriously impressive performance, playing in an advanced position.

Really interesting to see how he gets on at the Euros, but he looks the real deal.

 

[richards30]

We need to do this, can play RB or even winger? £34m bargain and homegrown

He cant play RB, I think people need to accept this.

He is a RWB at best, if Pep wants to play in a back 5 then great, get Frimpong. I also was of the mind to get him.

But I have turned around.

I much prefer a true winger like Doku and a more defensive player behind them.

Lets get Savio and Nico Williams. Both wings will then have some of the best young wingers in the world (3 of them).

I genuinely think Pep could system change with Frimpong mate, we are too set at times in the system now and we struggle to break teams down?

We are one of the best at breaking teams down...???

How do you think we won the PL, most other teams struggle to do this.

Even if that is the argument, id prefer pure wingers like Savio or Nico Williams.

Players more like Doku, look how much the team passed to Doku in the last month as they wanted him to do something.

As a pure RW I think Frimpong is good, but there are better.

 

[strudelslol]

Would he not slot in just as well as Cancelo did? Without the dram and attitude of course

ish, just depends where and when and not really much point IF they buy a RW then it kinda negates the need
