Despite what others might say, Rashica more of a out and out winger. Rashica is an inside forward rather than a winger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brewster is very likely Villa very interested Loftus Cheek is a real possibility. Chelsea will have to be convinced he will play enough Barkley is unlikely A french midfielder is also being assessed As far as i know no-one else is being sought Need @joshharris12 or @Stevo985 itk to confirm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, fair point......I meant he’s not an AM and not a ST. Wing/inside forward yes. Benrahma can play those roles too but can also genuinely play AM.

Benrahma can play those roles too but can also genuinely play AM. Benrahma and Jack would end up getting in each others way. Jack needs runners around him, not someone who plays like him in the area he tends to drift out to when played centrally. This is why I think Buendia made more sense as he operates on the right. Having an inside forward on the left suits Jack best, as when Jack drifts left he will look to move in behind and in-between the fullback and the centre back. Also Rashica is proven at a higher level then Benrahma. Benrahma would beJack's backup no more. That's why we have no intention of spending 20m plus on him. Personally I'm not convinced Benrahma is anything more than average at Premier league level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you’re saying about Jack and Benrahma occupying the same spaces.....which is why I’m more keen on Sarr or Brewster....but if Jack got injured Benrahma is the only player I can think of who could fill his boots.

I really like the player from the limited amount I’ve seen but apparently his fee has dropped to €10m so €17.5m hardly sensational vfm for a CM in the last year of his contract and who is likely to be a bench player. i mean we spent c£17m on Traore and that genuinely could be sensational vfm.

Keyblade Posted September 25, 2020 Share Posted September 25, 2020 That highlights video is one of the worst I've ever seen. Made him look like Leandro Bacuna. So that means he'll be good. Sign him up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like ALL the players we are signing or linked to, can take a cracking free kick! Something we have been severely lacking for as long as I can remember. It finally seems our board and management see these things are are addressing them. Players who can cover a few positions as well. Refreshing!
