It's rumoured to have been agreed with the player for a while, the manager has said he's most likely off and a medical could have already been done. I'm praying it's the case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The drop off in quality from, say, Grealish to El Ghazi is massive. Rashica and Traore can play in any of the front 3 roles, Jack can go central if Barkley is out. We need versatile players of a high quality. It's a squad game, as they say. Absolutely. People were going on saying no way CH was dropped for RB yesterday following a goal and assist but thank god he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever is in form will play but I imagine he would take Trez’s place to start off with (if he proves himself in training), then we can switch it around accordingly and if anyone gets injured/suspended we will have options and the absence of a key player won’t be affect us too badly. Traore could probably cover/rotate at CF too as well as RW. Versatile players allows us to mix it up and have them swapping positions too, just imagine the goal threat (hi Liverpool) we will have! Every player should be busting a gut to get into the side and that will keep our performance levels high as we go on throughout the season...

The key word is OPTIONS. You can never have too many. Especially this season when a virus wiping out half your first 11 a day before the match is a good possibility.

He didn't, because that isn't how it works at this level, it's not just the first 11 anymore. I think Rashica is exactly what we need, real genuine pace and quality, he'd give us an extra dimension/different option. In this league you can't only have one way to hurt an opposition, you need to have multiple ways of playing. I have no idea if we are going to sign him but it's nice to dream!

TrentVilla Posted October 5, 2020 Moderator Share Posted October 5, 2020 Way too quiet for this to be happening imo. Jim White claimed Purslow had told him we were done after Barkley and Smith seems to have said the same. Seems very unlikely to me no matter what overseas journo’s are saying.

Panto_Villan Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Why is this thread open again? You guys are killing me. I'd be fine with him not signing if only you'd stop giving me hope! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
