JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) As.others have noted, Otavio in a tiny bloke, but seems tenacious and has good defensive stats. We all know, and I'm sure SG does too, that we need more physicality in the squad. So I've started thinking that if Otavio bid is true, he is coming to replace Luiz and Sanson. Then we'll either promote Tim, or get another physical Midfielder in. Edited July 1, 2022 by JAMAICAN-VILLAN 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 He could be coming in to replace Buendia. By replace, I mean, to compete with. I don’t think Gerrard fancies Buendia. He might see Otavio as a 10 alongside Coutinho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not a bad player at all and I’d be happy if he were added to the squad I would be ok with him.....but not for the monies speculated. I just want the Ake links to go away.

I think he's the kind of player that if he signed/signs for one of our rivals I wouldn't be thinking we've missed out. But at the same time if we are interested (which is by no means certain) then I can see that he would appear to give us more options. Mainly I was railing against the notion that "we shouldn't sign players who are decent squad members for a Sly 6 team because they will never improve us and allow us to close the gap". Or that anyone we sign in that camp will automatically be a Drinkwater or Barkley (although to be fair in the first 2 or 3 months Barkley looked like he might be the missing piece in our jigsaw - before he just became a missing piece). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicRic Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 5 hours ago, TRO said: How many are nailed on first teamers, with few question marks.? 2 are development players 1 is pretty much nailed on as our marquee signing 1 is our progressive local boy, who is only improving 2 are being linked with exits 2 are left to challenge for 1 spot with 1 being a fan favourite....and play in different positions. Not so hard to reconcile, with many games coming up. So big question and your opinions are always highly regarded imo… if lets say a new CM comes in who would be more under threat Ramsey or Mcginn?

McGinn for sure. I expect McGinn to be better this season with Kamara in midfield. But JJ's improvement last season was astronomical. His ceiling is way, way higher than McGinn's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RicRic Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Wouldn’t want RLC, straight no… watched him last season he offers very little , not determined enough and gives the ball away in dangerous areas … we can look higher than him So in agreeance with @nick76 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
