Summerville


diouf for me. i rather have him on the left wing. Beckham style. His delivery cross impressed me.
imagine his regular crosses for Brobbey. mmm

He's one of the best crosses of the ball I've seen in a long time like. Noticed it when he played against England last summer and he's done it all season long at WH as well.
 
Just a couple of years ago, we were picking off their unwanted academy products. And now we are debating whether their best first team players are good enough for us.

f***ing magic carpet ride 🤩

Bissaka is awful at defending, just flies forwards and doesn't think about getting back. Fernandez looks a player, but they paid 45m for him, so will command a good fee. Summerville is good, but we're too heavy with Left wingers already when we're in desperate need of someone on the right.

Wan-Bissaka is only good in a back 5 playing as wing back imo. Not good enough defensively.

Only player i'd want is Diouf. Only 21 though so you'd think they would demand a chunky fee. Not sure we'd want to be spending so high on a left back - hwoever i'd argue this summer might be the time to do it with Cirkin leaving and Reinildo being 34.

The home grown quota issue wont go away though, we might need to be clever with our business

That just confirms that they’re all very good then

You sure about that? His primary attribute is one on one defending. He "sees danger early" Interceptions 41 in 25 games - 98th percentile. His recovery defending/closing down counter attacks 0.30 per 90. - 78th percentile. Good clearance stats, in fact all of his defensive numbers are pretty good.

2 out of 3 ain't bad.

Big fees for Fernandez and Summerville though, so we won't be going there.

Every time I've watched him he's way out of position. He was the same yesterday, flying forward without and idea of how he's getting back if the ball breaks.

He's a quick lad, but I wouldn't have him over what we have already, and Geertruida would be a better buy.

Given he'd probably be no more expensive you're probably right . I'd still take WB i'd Gerty clears off although a cheaper left sided player is more important, especially if we're limited for funds due to Europe

I'd bet that WB is on a lot more than Geertruida would be, and he obviously can't cover as many positions, so WB wouldn't make sense to me. As you say LB/LCB takes priority over anything at the back anyway.
