Players who might improve us

[Gaz (FMwkdsoul)]

walkers end product is god like compared to robinson, thats saying sth. but its not just that, walker is technically good enough to play in peps system, robinson isnt. also robinsons greatest strength, recovery pace and physicality, is no where near prime walker. so he offers little upside but alot of deficiencies. not ideal really

yeah not a fan either but starting with his end product isnt where i'd start either.

Yeah I think Gvardiol is the ideal. You are right though, if we had a road runner like Hernandez then he might get in the way of what Grealish is doing. Ake is improving massively though but we cant just have one.

the trend seems to be that fullbacks need to offer either elite defensive ability (ie. a centerback) or good buildup ability (almost like a midfield). gvardiol offers both. theo would offer that as well tbf, i think pep would use him like walker/more a centerback if he got him. good thing about gvardiol is that he could probably play across the back 3, the stones role or even dm, good versatility

Not sure that Robinson adds a lot. He moves down the left wing pretty well, and is fast, but we have Jack to do that now, and he does it well. He's not a lockdown defender, but is proficient. It would be nice to have a defender than can nail someone's feet to the pitch, but that isn't our thing.

I guess he's the kind of player that if we signed, I would say, "cool, let's get him on the field", and if we didn't then I just don't care.

I think Bastoni would be perfect for our hybrid Lb/lcb role.

Bottom line is he ain't good enough

No doubt.

 

[ChicagoBlue]

I think Robinson from Fulham is of similar promise and less of a W*****

Not convinced.

Asensio is on a free, might be a decent option

I said this about a month or so ago

We lack pace . We need a player who can run at defenders .

Said this to my mate after the Madrid game, if we had two rapid wingers like Vinicius and Rodrygo, we’d be the ultimate package
