Players who might improve us

Angelino played about once every 3-4 weeks for us last season, it`s very hard to establish himself with so little playing time. The CB pairings last season were absolute garbage (due to injuries) with Garcia, Ota and Dinho, you can`t even compare that to this season. The reason why Delph and Zinchenko worked in our system is that the CBs were fantastic, defensively both of them were poor, but it still worked because they had CBs that could cover for them.

Angelino would be a lot better now that we have four genuinely top class CBs. Good passing range, one of the best crossers in the world and scores loads of goals. 7 goals and 5 assists already this season. Lots of people is saying that he wouldn`t work here because he`s been playing a lot as a LWB, but that`s what he would do here for 90% of the time. (He`s played in 4atb formations this season as well.) With a little coaching, his defending would easily be better than Zinchenko. The train has passed now with Leipzig's obligation to buy, but I think we let him go too early. The 16m fee is absolutely laughable. Bigger clubs will be bidding 40m+ for him in a season or two, I`m 100% sure of that. He`s HG as well and really loves City, just a shame that the CBs were shite when he was here. Mendy, Angelino and Ake would be three very different, but great options
Yeah, not sure if he'd work here or not, but the terms of the loan are ridiculous and the amount we'll get is a fraction of what he's worth. Think we let him go too easily.
 
As a potential long term replacement for Kyle Walker, I think young Walker-Peters at Southampton has huge potential. In fact, I like both of Southampton's fullbacks.
I agree.

In fact, given the amount of talent that Southampton have found over the years, I'd be tempted to buy their coaches as well :)
 
Wilfried Singo ,Ivory Cost right back plays for Torino, he’s only 19 years old but he’s fast, strong and technical; the perfect Walker heir.
 
We need to sign the best Left & Right wingers in the world in January.


Relying on Sterling as LW & Mahrez RW will only help to increase our frustration.
 
What are the thoughts on Tavernier ( Rangers ) - his stats are quite remarkable for a fullback. Takes a deadly set piece.

yes, I know some will say it’s a ‘pub league’ - but to me it was obvious van dijk was a good player up there.....a good player is a good player regardless of what league they play in
