Just can’t see a wold in which we need both O’Riley and Rutter.
If Billy goes we need a replacement but considering we also signed Gruda I’d rather use the extra money on getting Ferdi through the door
Too many people writing WBG off without actually seeing him in the new system. He was impressive in his cameo.
Fab has said he is open to adjusting style of play depending on who we are playing so can see Billy fitting in depending on who we play.
Of course if the right offer comes in, I can...
If he’s our record signing we will want the announcement to have some attention rather than competing with opening PL weekend.
Will be announced tomorrow/tuesday I reckon
Some loose passes which I think is purely rustiness.
Can see how quickly we look to break.
I don’t think Milner will be in starting 11 once all the new guys are settled in
Perhaps inverted is the wrong word as you’re right about being left footed, however the positions he took up against Villarreal and some of the other friendlies were text book inverted full back, drifting VERY central
Looks very comfortable on both sides which will be a huge advantage through the season.
Imagine he will play more on the right (which is where we need him) however it’s a shame we won’t see on the the left as he looks very accomplished in that ‘inverted role’ (as has Barco)
True, although Ferdi doesn’t look slow, neither does Barco.
I think pace in midfield can snuff out breaks against us before they become a problem. Players breezed pass WBG and Gross last season far too much
