Don't underestimate how impressive those stats are. If Walsh wanted him at Leicester, have faith that he'd fit the bill. Not the player's fault he was playing alongside a bunch of turds like Westwood, Agbonlahor and Grealish.
 
Say we want Carvalho, and we are signing this guy to back him up, we shouldnt sign him until we get Carvalho?

Note that Marseille have alos met his buy out, meaning we have probably acted to avoid losing him - if the reports are true

At all costs he can't come in first, All the top targets will knock us back if that happens
 

Despite the fact he isn't in any way shape or form the same type of player that Carvalho is?

So you think we'll sign a clone of Carvalho instead?

No player is the same, but Carvalho and Gueye play the same role - but one does it to a much higher standard than the other.

So my concern now is we've wasted a critical July to get top-tier players in, and now we're scrubbing around for Moneyball signings.

Thats not true Tubey mate, from what I can see, this fella is a straight up DM in the mould of Kante, high energy ball chaser, Carvalho is a ball playing deep lying playmaker with about as much energy as a smackhead on 50 moggys.

He is a clone of Carvalho exatly how mate?

Utterly ridiculous statement to make if you have seen both these play which you obviously have done

They both play defensive midfield - but to say they are similar besides that is like saying Barry and McCarthy are clones
 
I know it's a really unique concept but you can get good players who happen to play in c**p teams.

I've got no idea if he's any good or not, much like I doubt 99% of the people slagging him off do but if Walsh and RK want him it's fine by me.

You're Witsel, right? You see a club interested in you signing players from one of the worst teams in England last season.

Does that scream ambition to you? Would you sign on for that project?

I wouldn't. I'd swerve and look for a club who actually look like they want to win things.

We should have went balls out to bring in a signing that would be a big statement of intent, and then looked to see what doors opened when the eyes of the football world were on us wondering just how big on things we wanted to go.
