We don't need players like Kamavina. Even for 50 million I wouldn't want him or Tchomeni. Because they are simply different profiles that we represent and are looking for.

What are we looking for then? We need world class midfielders or midfielders with the potential to be world class

I can agree on that but right now the midfield is just so slow you could walk right through it. Gundogan and Kovacic aren't a great combination and a lot of players have lost too much pace because of their age which makes it even more noticeable.

Yes, I get that, but as long as whoever we buy has all the other attributes, being pacy won't matter that much.

Kova is not really slow - at 32.5 km/hr is quickest in our midfield by a distance (except for Nunes)- he just seems to fall over the ball at inappropriate times a lot.

That's not too bad. He does look slow though. I would guess it's his acceleration that's not too good.

I think pep puts a lot of stock in to the Barca Academy system.
He trusts that the players are going to understand what he needs from them fast.

I think a 6ft 2 strong DM who is going to sit in front of the defence and just control the tempo is exactly what we need.

His injury record looks pretty good too - apart from the odd broken toe

Kinell if Rodri loses a yard of pace he'll be running backwards.
 
I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about this fella, and I trust the club to get the recruitment right as they mainly do, but I am concerned that this signing might not address our lack of physicality or ball winners in midfield.

Rodri is a freak of nature, ballon d'or winner for many reasons but also because he can seemingly be in two places at once. Very few come close to him. I think I was hoping we might sign someone to compliment him, maybe someone more defensive minded, that might allow Rodri to push up the pitch when they play together...

I guess what I'm saying is, hopefully Gonzalez will be a brilliant signing, but I worry about us being a soft touch, particularly when we come up against the shithouse European teams.

Nico González Top Speed - speedsdb.com

On this page you will find the top speed of soccer player Nico González

He is not slow at all. Acceleration isn't an issue because he goes past people like they're not even there.

He certainly isn't fast if he has about the same top speed as gundogan. Hope his acceleration is better but it is hard to tell by watching highligts mostly from Primeira Liga.
 
Based entirely on hype, and youtube videos... get it done.

Physically looks good, insanely high aerial win rate, playmaking from deep, and has decent pace for the CDM spot.

Get it done... 50m RC too? What are we haggling over, just pay it already FFS.

Yes hence my original post.

No you said “Porto want above the release clause” which is why I described how a release clause actually works, which is you don’t have to go above it, provided the player wants the move. Read your previous post
