  1. Depends on the strengthening to the squad, which is ridiculously thin at present, that is done in January, or before then with unattached players.
  2. Agree entirely 4life but, I can't see Ziyech coming to the championship can you? Vlasic is one I can see us getting and he'll only improve with experience. He actually assists quite a few goals he doesn't get credit for because his pass is passed on, if that makes sense to you.
  3. His productivity is to do with the number of chances he helps create, not in his own personal tally. I thought you would have realised that, given the position he plays. The name wasn't random, I've actually watched him play a few times. As for the FM comment, I'm afraid you'll have to ask one of the people who play the game, as I never have played any of those computer games
  4. Nuremberg I suggest you read from the top of the page and it should become clear to you.
  5. While you are at it, check out Nemanja Mihajlovic, a winger from Partizan, Marko Rog, a midfielder from Dynamo Zagreb and his team-mate Petar Stojanovic, a right-back, as well.
  6. The who and the team name were mentioned in the thread that made you ask. There is no who in age. All of our creative options wouldn't lie with him, McCormack makes a fair few chances, for one.
  7. The who is pretty well self-explanatory. The why is because he is a pretty productive player, who at 18, is mature enough to be made team captain. Right now we'd get him for 10-12 million euros, next year he'll cost 30 million.
  8. Nikola Vlasic of Hadjuk Split has to be that AM we're after.
  9. Kodjia is playing right wing for Bristol City this season. Mattheui Dossevi of Standard Liege plays predominately as a right winger but, drops into right, left or, attacking midfield if needed. He scores a few, 5 or 6 a season from the wing but, creates twice as many.
  10. A lot of uncertainty about Valencia. His scoring record isn't at all good. The thing is, he's listed as a striker/centre forward but, for some reason appears to be picked to play out wide. Could be his pace I suppose.
  11. I didn't see his defending ability in France, so excuse me if I only judge on the relatively little I've seen of him in England. I wouldn't be putting too much reliance on records from France if I were you, not after last season's showing by our imports.
  12. Cissokho does have an error in him, as does every player but, he does at least know what a left back's primary job is, while Amavi on the other hand, seems to believe that his primary job is to attack. That and that alone makes Amavi a non-starter for me. Late on in a game we were chasing, I'd use him as a sub. With two wing-backs bombing on upfield, we'd need to play two DM's to cover their absence or, a three-man back line with a DM.
  13. And there I was, thinking that a disagreement about players would/could lead to an interesting debate/discussion.
  14. I agree with you Flynnchin84, Amavi was our best, attacking, option until he got injured. The confusion comes about, I think, simply because I think a player listed as being a defensive player should have, at least some rudimentary defensive skills. Amavi's initial mindset seems to be in attack mode when it should be in defence mode. As I said, he can learn basic defending, if he wants to stay a left back or, he could move to a spot that his natural playing style is better suited to.
  15. Why would you think that Ritchie k? Couldn't be because I voice an opinion that differs from the majority could it?
  16. Now just where did I say or, give the impression that I'd resign Richardson or, for that matter that I would be happy with Cissokho as the number one choice as left-back. What I said is, that as a left-back, Amavi is very lacking in the defensive aspects of the job. As a young man, he probably has time to learn the defensive arts, although I'd prefer he didn't do it playing in our first team week after week.
  17. I agree with your assessment Warnock. The disinterest has probably come about because he's been asked to do a job for the team and, up until now, I've seen nothing in his play, or demeanour, to suggest that he's a team player.
  18. Why on earth would you make Amavi your first choice left back? I'll admit the kid looks decent going forward but, he has as much idea about defending, as I do about quantum physics.
  19. If we were really interested in Abel Hernandez, I think a deal would have been done by now. Hull apparently have an interest in Richards, so surely if we had of made a bid of the reported £10m, they would have asked us to throw him in as a make-weight.
  20. What word would that be then, Lichfield Dean?
  21. The City of Valencia, is in Southern Spain on the mediterranean coast. It is an old city founded by the Romans in 138 and has a rich and colourful heritage. Would be a steal at £12m.
  22. £9 million forward isn't going to be world-class, is he? Funnily enough, didn't Middlesboro pay that amount for Rhodes? Mind you, I wouldn't mind us getting Rhodes. Apart from scoring a hatful of goals for Blackburn, he made most of Gestede's goals. He is quite a strong, pacy guy too, as most of his goals came from breakaways as Blackburn didn't have any effective creative midfielders at that time.
  23. Martinez had great scoring records for 13/14 and 14/15, scoring a goal every game and a half. In 15/16 he's scored a goal every six games. At 29 years of age, it looks like he's way past his best.
  24. Football players I have seen who I would rate as World Class. Lev Yashin. Bobby Moore. Gordon Banks. Peter Schmeichel. Garrincha. Paulo Maldini. Billy Wright. John Charles. Danny Blanchflower. Dave Mackay. Jim Baxter. Davie Cooper. Franz Beckenbauer. George Best. Stanley Matthews. Eusebio. Pele. Tostao. C.Ronaldo. L.Messi. Zlaten Ibrahimovic Peter Swann. Claude Makelele.
