Jude Bellingham

[argyle]

Bellingham is a superb player,he has proven that on plenty of occasions.

Judging him on an average game last night,where he could very easily have got on the score sheet and won the game for his team,is harsh and foolish.

No one is judging him on one game.

FDJ is a master.....but Bellingham isnt a pudding when it comes to play making and orchestrating,alongside Rodri and Grealish i think he would be great.

something like......

Alvarez--Haaland--Foden
--Grealish--Bellingham
-----------Rodri----------
-Gvardiol-Dias-Stones-Lewis

My loins like the cut of this team's jib!

He's young enough to mould into whatever we need him to be. He tends to try and get into more attacking areas for Dortmund but when Chelsea blocked that off he came deeper to try and be more influential. I'm sure he could offer more control, but it's the tempo of play that we could have an issue with in that side. You've got a front three and two midfielders who want to make things happen and score or assist every time they're on the ball. Arguably you need someone who controls the tempo more, as Bernardo and Gundogan can do. I think that's been a real issue this season. We either keep it patient too much and ignore Haaland or we play too direct and leave ourselves vulnerable on the counter. De Bruyne was guilty of playing far too aggressively on the weekend. Better to keep the ball at times rather than play a difficult ball just because Haaland is on the pitch.

We have options if we sign Bellingham though and Pep is the best man to mould him. I'd love to see Grealish more central but I wont comment further here in case I get told off by the mods!

FDJ over Jude any day of the week.

Cheaper, better and would settle instantly, Jude has enormous potential but with the fee required it's a huge risk.

I'd be over the moon if we throw in whatever money it takes to get the pair of them.

100m + does seem very high but if that’s the price then we either pay or move on. De Jong doesn’t want to play in Manchester, we need to realise this. There must be another player we can identify instead of de jong. Very few talented playmakers around it seems.

At this rate, we will be waiting until Dave’s lad is ready to play -:)

Looking at the mid to low teams in Spain might be the way to go.

I still find it staggering that some people can't see how good he is. Even in his off games you can see his quality.

Think there's a psychology to it: talk a player we are interested down so if they don't come here you can say you were never interested.

100%, that would be some statement of intent.

De Jong stats are shockingly bad. Bellingham.. way overhyped but he’s so young his potential is pretty unknown. We need to line up our next superstar playmaker and not sure who that will be. KDB is going to be impossible to replace.

We rarely replace one to one player, we simply evolve our play over the next year.

Alvarez isn't a winger. Why do people try and force him there?
