Exciting
Did he mention how he came by the info -- seems a bit odd unless he heard from an agency...
I think theyre very different players mate...the only 3 similarities i can think of are;
1 -- Long shots
2 -- Leadership (Gylfi for his country)
3 -- Covering distance per game
Brought a tear to my eye ,)
As much as i think he can achieve this i still think that we need to shift out a good 5 players this window...there needs to be 1 or 2 players brought in to begin the work before the summer...
McCarthy
Schneiderlin
Niasse
Tosun
Gana
Walcott
Sigurdsson
Sell 5 of those and bring in a CM and an attacking player and were nicely placed for the summer.
If Fernandes was performing as he did the last 2 seasons (havent seen him this year aside from highlights) in the prem he'd be one of the best in the league.
Brandalf is the one...if we had, had him during the Martinez reign with some cash i think we would have done better + if before Koeman we would never have appointed him.
Just seeing the quality he has brought in and the aura around him fills me with confidence.
Another beauty with Fernandes is that he's able to play any of the midfield positions and has also looked very good out wide as well...
Would be sexy next to Gomes.
Thats the downer...have to cross our toes.
Some super talent has come from Portugal over the years and their teams have always looked cohesive with some star players in the lineups...
Cant compare to Scotland or even Holland.
