tajjuk Posted 12 January, 2019 Share Posted 12 January, 2019 Good stats Dembele is class, he is a rare player because he is one of those deep midfielders that can break out from a press with his dribbling ability and strength, those sort of players are tough to find and are hugely valuable to teams set up like ours. Keita basically did that role for Leipzig under Ralf and those sort of players start counters because they win the ball back deep and then break out from the counter press to start attacks. Just shame his body is probably not quite up to it anymore but a massively under rated player I think. One for the future no doubt, but is that really our priority right now? What we desperately need is players who will hit the ground running and immediately improve our first team. I'm really not convinced a 16 year-old from Motherwell fits that description, no matter how highly rated he is. Don't think there is much issue, its probably not even the main scouting team doing it, probably being overseen by the academy people, the up front fee, wages etc. are probably not going to have any impact on first team signings. Just because we are in a bit of mess now doesn't mean we shouldn't be still building for the future, if there are highly rated young kids out there that we can identify and poach, its a way of helping us compete with the big boys.

SNSUN Posted 12 January, 2019 Share Posted 12 January, 2019 If Cedric does go, we need a new first choice right back. No disrespect to Valery or Ramsey but I'd crap myself if we were to rely on them for the rest of the season. I still hope our business reads: RB in - Cedric out CB in - Hoedt out Striker in - Gabbiadini out Winger/attacking midfielder with pace in. Forster out. Too much business to do in January?

tajjuk Posted 12 January, 2019 Share Posted 12 January, 2019 Lookman on loan with an agreed fee end of season, if that was the only in, with some of the others out, I think that would be pretty decent. I think we have shown today the squad is nowhere near as bad as it looked under the previous managers, almost everyone in the squad has raised their game. We probably had 5 guaranteed first teamers out today and still won. One good signing could be enough I reckon, like Ralf says to me it seems pointless to sign someone unless they are a long term improvement.

tajjuk Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 Not sure centre-back is a massive priority at the moment, would rather see someone in the attacking sense if we are going to make just one signing. Bednerak & Vestergaard have shown a new level since Ralf took over and Stephens/Yoshida have also been fairly solid. I suppose we are only a couple of injuries from Hoedt but still I think we'd be more in trouble if Redmond went down. In the summer yes, especially if we are going 3 CBs long term or Ralf has worries about our current ones in a two, but if funds are tight go for attacker IMO. I mean I watched Watford on MOTD and realised they are 'best of the rest' with a centre back pairing of Mariapa and Cathcart, who are average players at best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nta786 Posted 13 January, 2019 Share Posted 13 January, 2019 (edited) How about Giroud, he loves scoring at SMS would not fit Ralph's stylee. you can tell what he wants is just speed everywhere in the front 4 attacking spots- he had that at Leipzig with Werner, Poulsen, Bruma, and a really good playmaker in Forsberg. and rightly so! all the best attacking players in the world have some sort of speed and pace except the odd one/two target men like Kane and Cavani- and don't get me wrong they aren't that slow either. if we were going to only buy 1 player, then id rather we went and bought another redmond type winger but can play up front too if needed.
