So has anyone here seen this fella play much? Is he fast, because we're lacking in pace at the back?
I can't quite believe we're breaking our transfer record for a centre back from the Championship.
To be honest, I'd say essential rather than lovely. When we try to push forward, we're very susceptible to the counter. We want to push forward more, so unless we get some pace at the back, we're going to leak goals.Be lovely if he had a yard of pace wouldn’t it

Have we been fighting off competition for Webster? This £20-25m valuation seems very odd for a Championship defender most people have barely seen, unless there has been a bidding war..
At that price I'd bloody well hope he does make a seamless step up. That doesn't mean he'll be as good as Dunk though, I'm not expecting that.Who knows, he may make a seamless step up and cost half of what we (may) get for Dunk. Winner winner chicken dinner.
No. Bloom doesn't get involved in them sort of things. he won't chuck money about.
According to FIFA index (I've no idea how good that is):
Shane Duffy: Acceleration – 42. Sprint speed 47.
Lewis Dunk: Acceleration – 38. Sprint speed 50.
Adam Webster: Acceleration – 67. Sprint speed 69.
I just dont see where this high valuation has come from? Is he that good? Ive never seen him play.
Maybe he doesn't. Are FIFA stats really that good?Good stat that.
Didn’t realise that Duffy has a better 0-60 than Dunk!
Football Manager version. Might want to look away from non pace related stats though.According to FIFA index (I've no idea how good that is):

I'd think that Mings was well overpriced rather than the going rate.Owen is saying around 18. Mings was 20. It's the going rate.
Very strange bit of underwhelming, over-priced business.
They've got the acceleration as the same.Football Manager version. Might want to look away from non pace related stats though.
