"I'm not too disappointed by this. I'd rather we sign a "third centreback" type of DM. Someone who'll give the fullbacks licence to get forward and, by extension, the wingers the freedom to cut into the box.Link?
We have a lot of central attacking players getting shoehorned into wide positions at the moment. Forward runs from right- and leftback would help to fulfill their potential better than a DM like Fabinho (who seems to be at his best when he's the one making the forward runs).
Fabinho would limit Martial and Mkhitaryan to hugging the touchline. Makalele would enhance Valencia, Shaw and everyone ahead of them."
Lots of comments like this on red cafe and twitter, I usually don't buy into stereotypes but the one of the rags acting this way when someone they feel entitled to singing snubs them is totally true...
