Gareth Barry's successor...

Anyone seriously suggesting Wilshire needs to put their head in an electric wobbling machine

Been there, done that, got the T-shirt.
Damo runs the vendor.

Pierre-Emilie Hojbjerg - 21 years old Danish player who was previously at Bayern, Southampton snapped him up in the summer for £13m. About 40 caps in Bundesliga. Watched him in a few games now but against United he looked a different level. Highly professional and mature for his age, spoke intelligently about the game and about his team during post-match interview. Won their player of the month for September. Price would be fair, possibly £16m but market nowadays would seem reasonable at £20m considering his age. Someone who Koeman could develop into a world class player.

Forgot to mention he's a physical brute too, Koeman enjoys big boys.

I would be looking at getting Capoue in to play alongside Gana.

The RS will be in for him in the summer then - £30m+

liam walsh will hopefully be his replacement

That is the dream, replace a key part of the team with a home grown talent.

The problem with walshy is his height !like someone suggested earlier you'd have to see what he's like in lower prem upper championship ! then theres the height of him and gueye would they play together ? thats a small midfield !

 

[MartyMcFly]

I would be very serprised... seeing Barry is all about using inteligence, Ross has the IQ of a rocking horse

I don't know if that's fair and besides there's not a position in the center of midfield that doesn't require intelligence.

Yoeri Tielemans.

Great vision, excellent passing range, very direct. Oh and he's only 19 years old. He says he plays like Witsel, but this isn't the case. Witsel rarely loses the ball, Yoeri tends to play with a lot of risk. He also has a great shot. Oh he also gives great interviews, a bit like Lukaku (his friend). Doesn't really like defending though.

I've seen both Witsel and Tielemans. Tielemans is better than Witsel was on the same age.

Transfer won't happen though. Anderlecht rejected a 20 million euro bit from Roma this summer and there are loads of other rumors.

xavi and inestia werent the biggest midfield, though they did have busquets in there too i suppose.

Have we still got that copy of carvalhos' passport, might come in handy

 

[DownOnTheUpside]

Yeah Dembele doesn't have any consistency problem, he's our most important player. Our win rate with and without him is telling... I always worry when we don't have him and we have struggled to find the right way to play without him.

Unfortunately he does pick up niggling injuries through the season which is a problem for us. Love him though, I really do feel he is the most underrated player in the Premier League. He dominates the midfield in any game he plays.

just wow

Cant see garbutt playin for us again

Not getting into a poor Wigan side is not a good sign.

Schneiderlin seems like a real possibility.
