Meh, least itās not caught offside or Goal so we have a (small) chance
Even the original asking price is something we should be seriously considering.
Kone over Nunes for me, all day long. He can do the 6 or 8, and is young enough to be shaped to whatever Klopp requires.
Bellingham, Kone and Bajcetic and we wonāt look back.
Itās been the thing bugging me all season. Iāve been willing to concede that I dont watch that much of wolves, and maybe different set ups bring out different things in different players, but Iāve never reallt seen much from him the times Ive watched him to sugggest heād make much of an impact, much less would have been the solution to our problems this year.
One moment I particularly liked last night was early on when Stef completely wiped him out, as if to say āyou think youāre coming here and taking my shirt?ā
Add in a Caicedo, we are set for at least 10 years.
Bellingham, Kone, Bajectic. Caicedo, Elliott. Thatās the next 10 years settled.
Within two years weāll want half of them out.
After having won the Prem and CL double in the first year.
5000% this. imagine if we had a midfielder who could shoot like he did.
We have, me. I just have less accuracy than a muck spreader and they donāt pick me. Bastards.
I wonāt talk about Kone having not watched him but regarding Nunes, Iāve seen him in a few games and while Iām impressed with his technical ability and general movement, I fail to see what he offers that would make him the saviour of our midfield and our team in general. Maybe he would shine in a better, more attack-oriented side than Wolves but I canāt tell that from what Iāve seen.
Granted Iām no scout but players like Nunes are ten a penny.
There was one time in last nightās game when Nunes dribbled and went past 2-3 of our players, riding a tackle or two, and getting away with the ball. He showed real pace and strength.
Now, donāt get me wrong. Nunes is down the list of midfielders I want here. But Iām trying to make an effort to see what he has, since we were linked a while ago.
Still, it is Bellingham, Kone and Bajcetic all day long for me. With the best of what we already have here that remains to play alongside.
I saw the shout above to add Caicedo to the mix. He is a good player, but at the price Brighton are asking for, Kone makes a lot more sense for perhaps half the outlay.
Yes, if it is money no object, buy them all!
But realistically (and this might even be too much of a stretch) I will be happy to add ājustā Bellingham and Kone to the midfield this summer.
If Kone is available for 30m, then it makes it a bit of a no brainer
Yes, I remember that. I thought it was more by luck than judgement though.
It might have been. It looked like he benefitted from a bobble and a ricochet here and there. But I was squinting and straining to see his plus points!
Donāt you think heās a bit too slow for PL tempo?
No, I think heās more than dynamic enough for the PL.
same could be said for Thiago, yet sometimes itās more about brain than speed.
And therein lies the problem with our current midfield. We actually need a certain volume of high tempo movement that is lacking. You need positioning and anticipation, sure. But you also need speed, agility, and speed repeatability.
