PieFacE Posted December 18, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) The one position I don't think we need to sign any players is central midfield. I'd prioritise a left back to cover/push Targett before signing a CM. If we can only sign 2 players it would be a striker and winger for me.

Marvelous can break up play but we need someone who can rough up a midfielder and win stiff in the air. Against Newcastle I was worried when Carol came on because every long ball he won and against other teams we need a midfielder who can compete with a big striker and it would certainly help us cover our weaknesses from set pieces.

Zatman Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 We need a striker but it's the hardest position to fill. Look at top strikers in the league Aguero and Aubameyng are no brainers but Kane had about 20 loan spells until he got a lucky break same with Tammy, Firmino was an attacking midfielder and Vardy came from lower leagues and a lesser team would have ditched him after his 1st top flight season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not exactly unreasonable to expect a person to explain why he thinks as he does. Kinda discussion 101. Spot on, it's a question that's a guaranteed pathway to better understanding. Surely when @Villan4Life you give your scout report, you give an account of why you think a player will make the grade, or why they won't? And surely there's oftentimes a line of inquiry from the club you are scouting for, whether it's to see if a player ticks their boxes, or simply to explore your POV on them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I think he’s done well for us, especially early on in the season, he’s tailed off a bit recently which culminated in him being dropped but he’ll come back I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benrahma wouldn't even be a guranteed upgrade on those players, from what I can gather he hasn't been as good for Brentford this season. We'll see about that come January, our owners will surely spend what it takes to give us the best chance of staying in the premier league. Loans with options to buy could the way to go for us.
