He's less of a Youri type and perhaps more of a KDH/Maddison hybrid. Could work on the right of a diamond or a midfield three with him and KDH either side of Ndidi.

But Chelsea do like selling a youth prospect, and think they'd be tempted by a respectable bid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might think taking the money is acceptable if they need to improve other positions, all depends on how much a club like ourselves would be willing to pay. ....the English premium is too much, we can get a better deals in Europe!!!

Ric Flair Posted 24 February 2022 Share Posted 24 February 2022 I haven't completely decided if he's truly good enough yet but Riqui Puig will be leaving Barcelona this summer and technique wise he's unbelievable but he's very very small. Would he stand up to PL football? Would our lack of height in midfield mean we couldn't accommodate him? I can see Wolvws getting him as Moutinho's long term replacement.

For me he is too boring, passes the ball backwards a lot. As you’ve said basically he lacks any sort of physicality. the idea though to target players in those sorts of situations is a good idea though, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phenom Posted 28 February 2022 Share Posted 28 February 2022 How about Brais Mendez from Celta de Vigo? Just turned 25 and has been called up the Spanish national team recently. 12.6 million valuation on Transfermarkt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuchsntf Posted 28 February 2022 Share Posted 28 February 2022 We dont Need a Youri replacement... I am still waiting for a Rowley,D.Gibson,K.Weller, Worthington, Kante replacements... Plus many more... Youri is a Belgian, We could Call in Poirot, cos its criminal, what has happened to us..

Ric Flair Posted 1 March 2022 Share Posted 1 March 2022 Mendez is a winger/ACM, the sort of left footed player I was convinced Rodgers would look for. Can also play in a midfield 3 or diamond centrally. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendly_Fox Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 Tielmens is overrated. Great when he's on it but all too often not & flapping about like someone having an asthma attack. Sorry if I've upset proper asthmatics 😌 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moore_94 Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 Juventus were in contact last summer for him and remain interested http://sportwitness.co.uk/contact-already-place-sign-leicester-city-player-foxes-look-highest-bidder/ Il Bianconero reports there was contact last summer over signing the midfielder, but Leicester City’s stance, of the player being non-transferable or ‘almost’ in that bracket, saw the Turin side walk away. Juve interest ‘remains’ in the player but he’s not their first choice. It’s stated Leicester could sell to the ‘highest bidder’ in the summer, and whilst Juventus aren’t rushing forward, contact is in place, and Tielemans is one of a number of options for the Serie A side.

Ric Flair Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 He'd do well in Italy, so many players go there when they've lost the ability to cope with the demands of the PL and keep performing, Tielemans would be unreal there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

l444ry Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 Fabian Ruiz. Makes Napoi tick and very comfortable on the ball. Similar player to Youri and in the last year of his contract. Only down side is that most of the big boys will be interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are the occasional clips of our team on there, check out the last clips, virtually all eleven of our players in the box and no one closing down the shot.

bald reynard Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 McGregor at Celtic. He's the bees knees up there and it's on record that Rodgers loves him. Scottish player values are incredibly low (I know there's a reason for that!), but McGregor is quality and whenever I've seen him, I thought, "he is good enough for the PL". And he's very much in the Tielemans mould - sitting behind the attacking midfielders / wide players / forwards, but providing the link to them. A great passer of the ball, he get stuck in, is a leader - and gets a few goals. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think Dahoud is achievable and a top quality player in a similar mould to Youri Edited 7 March 2022 by FoxesWalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesta2014 Posted 7 March 2022 Share Posted 7 March 2022 Praet still has 2 years left, wonder if he’s in the plans next season? Personally think Praet only stands a chance if Brendan isn’t in charge anymore. He could be good with kdh doing left and him the right side going forward! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
