He is right footed, but plays LB mainly his most played position according to transfermarkt, would be very well suited to teams who play an inverted LB. Maybe Emery is looking to change things up by inverting the attacking LB and defensive RB we use, an having a defensive LB and attacking RB? Would be the perfect setup for a marauding Frimpong at RB.

Yes I know, my point is though, that playing him at RB would hardly be a bad decision unlike almost everything from Bruce's tenure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, he’d be a very useful player to have by all accounts. Can play LB, RB, DM, LM, RM and AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferdi Kadıoğlu is rumoured already agreed (think it’s BS) LB . €30mill Raoul Bellanova RB €18-20mill Georgiy Sudakov €40mill + Martin Zubimendi €40mill + sell Moreno/Digne, Cash and the deadwood, then also whoever Monchi / Emery decide can be sacrificed if needs be for the greater good (ie Ramsey, Luiz) … I’d try and extend Zaniolo’s loan if poss for another season and add the return of Mings & Buendia and we’ve raised the quality of the first team and squad. Bellanova RB - Bottom 10% for tackles, blocks and dribblers tackled.... Sudakov - Doesn't exist defensively - literally Zubimendi is 52m on his release.

I mean it’s a great guide for some things for the arm chair fan but if can it be relied upon to judge a player - how does that team set up and what is the ethos of the team, what does the manager expect from the player in that position, does the player show he can improve or play in a different manner, strength of opposition and league in general, how does he perform with his international team in comparison - where’s that in your bible?

Data alone is useless without context your are suggesting defenders and midfielders who can't defend. The lads at the club are looking at the data in massive detail in conjunction with the teams data and what it's missing. However be serious the basic stats are so bad it isn't even worth looking in any detail. Edited April 18 by paul514 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Watching the Fenerbahce Olympiacos game to see who were playing next, and that Ferdi Kadioglu is everywhere on the pitch. Could certainly see him in an semester team Also, there is something cool about a LB wearing no. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
