sexbelowsound Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 If this comes off could it stop Benteke leaving if he sees something in Praet? Maybe that's what the delay is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Richards was signed as a CB though. It would probably be more like Puts a whole lot of defensive responsibility on Gueye though. Which is why this signing doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me, if it does indeed happen. Suppose he can play wide in a 4-2-3-1, but then that would mean Okore or Clark being left out at the back. Take out one of Gil/Grealish and put in Westwood/Sanchez and it would be a solid line up. Although I always thought Praet was an attacking midfielder but people on here seem to be having him down as a centre midfielder? Does anyone know the truth on this?

MrSmirch Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I reckon (with no knowledge outside of FM, fifa and YouTube videos) he does a Ward Prowse sort of role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdomlahor Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 All that's on Twitter is people talking about Richard's suggestive post on here. One guy said Richard has confirmed it and people ran with that. Nothing to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abdomlahor Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 My guess would be Townsend or Darder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREAT_BEARD_OF_ZEUS Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 I think both him and Darder could still sign. Sherwood said Gill would get much more pitch time, but he hasn't said anything about Grealish, who after his summer antics might not necessarily start the season in the team. Plus if we are going to play a system with two no.10 roles it would be sensible to have more than just the two in the starting line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted July 18, 2015 Share Posted July 18, 2015 Im sure I saw him play about 2/3 years ago on Sky in a Champions League qualifier, think it was a cypriot team and he looked like a player was a young lad in midfield running it so could have been him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
