HOUSEBOAT - Warning: tenuous links ahead!

Meatwad

a left back like norwich's jamal lewis shouldn't cost too much either.

Question being is he talking about leadership and/or CB?

goon

I thought he was talking about impact.

Agreed - perhaps a better word rather than leadership.

TBH thats a good thing. We need an impact signing to bring us up a level. There are a few positions we could do that.

lorddulaarsenal

Hopefully a commanding centreback - I hate being handicapped by the likes of Mustafi

We're now being 'linked' to Maddison and Veretout as potential Ramsey replacements.

Hunter

Veretout is the guy who flopped at Villa and couldn’t handle the PL.

Jesus wept.

jones

Salah and KDB are the guys who flopped at Chelsea and couldn't handle the EPL.

Jesus wept indeed someone flopped at 22 (same age as the two above btw) for a dysfunctional Villa team. Hes not my first pick but hes been great for Fiorentina and we could do a lot worse.

Hunter

And I could list hundreds more who remained not good enough. Frankfurt should sign him, more suited to the Bundesliga, that level.

jones

So Champions League level?

Anyway great assessment from someone who's hasn't seen him play for four years. You should work as a scout for Villa or someone at that level

Looks good from the little I’ve seen of him

BWoolley

I used to be a fan, but upon seeing him a bit more, don't think he will fit here. His utter lack of physicality will be a huge disadvantage (not just strength but also speed). I'm turning off Lozano a bit for the same reason. Would rather get someone like Bailey or Malcom.

Fraser!

Anzac

We're being 'linked' to both Sarr & Nkunku to go with the likes of Neres & Fraser.

think I recall his name mentioned a while ago

incredible consistency regardless of which flank he plays on in an advanced role.

Yep, been wishlisting him for awhile, potential new Robben.

BWoolley

The player to get from the Eredivisie for me. Rare combination of physicality and technique - not quite as technically strong as Neres, but definitely a better combination of speed and strength.

lorddulaarsenal

Looks just the ticket

Not convinced by bergiwn. eredevisie imports can be sketchy
