Morgan Gibbs-White

Its not that Wirtz doesnt want to come that is a problem....to a point we cant control that (though whoever is in charge of making the club look attractive to potential signings needs to have a think!)

What we can control to a certain extent is who the alternatives are...

We were told a month or so ago that irrelevant of Wirtz coming or not that MGW was not the KDB replacement....

Now that narrative has changed and he is being seen as the KDB replacement and alternative to Wirtz

If we were getting in another creative central midfielder then all good....but if this is the extent of our rebuild of midfield then we are in trouble as we are going backwards in quality.

The drop off in quality from the likes of KDB and others to MGW is fucking astounding.

yes we may still have Bernardo and Gundo but is anyone putting their money on Gundo especially ever getting close to his old form....not for me -if it was up to me he would be out the door as well with our most sincere thanks and gratitude
bernardo I love but he has wanted out for 4 years...this may well have changed but he cant keep running like he does...he simply hasnt got it in him to keep doing this and he isnt creative either.

So if MGW is additional squad strength then fine....but there is a HUGE very obvious gapping fucking hole in quality in our central midfield area in the aspect of creativty....

So the hope seems to be that our wingers suddenly develop the ability to add numbers both in terms of goals and assists but I wouldnt hold my breath on that...Sav looks a long way off it and Doku has had a few seasons here now and although I like him a lot he is a step below the likes of Sane, Sterling and Mahrez

So the next theory is we are going to start adding creativity from fullback....Frimpong was supposd to be a target in that sense (he aint great defensively) but that is done as well...our targets - some unknown from Brazil and Livramento (who is decent but are newcastle really going to let him come to us?) - oh and the scousers have gone and got Kerkez as well probably - the other decent fullback who was available...

Failure to add real quality in the creative department sees us where we are now next season or worse

Why do some of our fans go down the "you don't understand football", "you don't know ball", "your football knowledge isn't great" route when people have an opposing view to them. It's very weird

Usually because they are unable to formulate a counter argument and their little sensitive hearts cant take any opposing views to theirs - especially if its along the lines that the club, manager, board, player could be making a mistake or not good enough (and just for clarification I think the manager and board are fucking fantastic and I wouldnt swap them for anyone else - ever - but that does not mean that they are not beyond reproach!)

As a matter of fact, I would put the £30M down and bring in Cherki as well

Yeah. Or not spend 100m on a very mediocre player who should cost half this at best. Or better yet spend it on a wirtz type talent. So yeah the 30m should be put to better use.
