It gives us the flexibility of signing either a CM or a winger if you want to look at it that way. If Jack is now a winger, we probably need a starting CM. I personally wouldn't mind a winger and Jack heading back to the middle, he'll be brilliant wherever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think an pacy and technical wide forward who can also play centrally is what we should try and find. Or the other way round. Either that or a inside forward type like Brahim Diaz/Ödegaard or someone more realistic. Edit: Benrahma might be said player, if he can play on the right and from what I've seen he goes both ways, giggity. An extra LB as well.

MotoMkali Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 I think the reason grealish wasn't effective early on in the season is twofold. One he had Neil Taylor on his left so if he passed to the fullnack very little would happen. Two Mcginn was always very far to the right and in line with wesley so when grealish got the ball he couldn't pass across the pitch to our 2nd best player to take pressure off of himself. I think mcginn has been playing deeper the last few games and I think if we moved grealish back into the centre that should continue and grealish would be just as effective. Just we would have benrahma instead of hourihane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third and unlikely is a left back yep. I think if we get two players who can start we'll stay up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well his price just went up further after last night, apparently Palace had scouts at the game watching him. Man Utd & Spurs scouts were there also, not looking at Morelos specifically but must have noted his performance. Ran Pepe ragged, albeit he is 36 now but still one of the better defenders in Europe.

I would also like us to sign Jarrod Bowen if the fee was reasonable. Edited October 25, 2019 by TRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) Would David Neres be unrealistic? Impressed me last season but not playing much for Ajax this season in the big games (was on the bench v Chelsea). Only 22, can play wide or centrally in the front 3 and Brazil still calling him up so hopefully Doug can have a word.

Ironically i really think we need a maupay type player, at least then it gives us options, having 2 players similar to Wesley is much of the same. Personally I think Wesley is doing fine considering all factors, but I do think a different type of player would give good balance and choice, Edited October 25, 2019 by MaVilla 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 We certainly lack a plan B attacking option, some one to shake things up off the bench. Wesley and Davis are too similar and we could do with some outright pace and/or guile either up top or out wide, even if just as an option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave-R Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Need a little fast striker, one so quick he can leap out of no where for the pass behind the defence. I would say Maupay but he's been taken and we missed that chance, someone like Gelson Martins- Monaco, Kensuke Nagai- FC Tokyo 30 if not mistaken, bring him here for a few years, both are like lightning, would be nice but not so sure we could lure them, could be costly. Wonder if Preston would sell Tom Barkhuizen, he's got the juice in him. No where am I saying we replace Wesley, I just think we need difference if we do bring another striker in. We need to show that we can change the game up and have different options on the pitch, especially when the opposition changes game plan.

Popular Post useless Posted October 26, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 26, 2019 Not sure what the fascination with Maupay is, he's scored fewer goals than Wesley and don't think he's made that much of a big impression at Brighton overall. There are plenty of other strikers we can go for. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of other strikers we can go for. He's all round play is better. His link up play is superb. Thought he was excellent against us. That through ball he gave to Connolly to make him through on goal were only a great save from Heaton away from being a goal. That is something i just can't see Wesley doing. Wesley always takes such a long time on the ball. I would love Maupay to be honest, just what we need.
