Raw Dykes Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 3 minutes ago, sacreblueits442 said: .....playing a three in midfield with Benkovic in the back four is a much better option, otherwise what was the point of buying Soumare!!! Playing Maddison behind Vardy and Nacho or any combination for a front three is in this case the best option. I'm not sure I'm following, but I think we're in agreement about Soumare. You've lost me with putting Benko in the back four, but I think we're agreeing that Maddison is best as a no.10. I believe Soumare is capable of covering for either Youri or Wilf in midfield. I think any two of Youri/Ndidi/Soumare would work as the 2 in 4231. What do you reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 Phil Jones is only 29! FFS, that's scary. He is actually in his peak and still so bad! Tarkoswki would be perfect right now. Will leave for a free in 12 months time. Burnley may entertain £18-20m if they can get a replacement lined up. Would be well worth it. He has another 4-5 years at the top in him and covers Evans now and in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think playing Benko tomorrow is probably a good idea, with it not being such an important game. I'd treat it as his audition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he didn’t have the best of seasons last year, Juve did exceptionally well with him in the team though. The comment was more just about the downgrade we are going to see.

Soyuncu, Demiral and Kabak are all equally brilliant and equally erratic in my opinion. That's often why Turkey play really well, defend well and still concede a lot of goals somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pliskin Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 We just can’t get drawn into long negotiations at this stage, so that’s rules out the likes of Tarkowski, as Dyche is just a cantankerous bellend who will just delay things. Target those who are more easily attainable. Like Kabak, and the fella from Barca. Needs to be quick. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strokes Posted 6 August 2021 Share Posted 6 August 2021 I’d probably go get Liam Moore from Reading. They are in dire straights financially, so he would be cheap. He knows the club and would play back up. It leaves a bit more in the budget for a right sided forward. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure he’s what we want . I’d be surprised if we didn’t get a loan player from Europe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club is a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
