2024/25 Jesper Lindstrom


Difficult to do when to don't have 2 fit wingers.

And the only 2 you have are McNeil and Harrison.
Yeah, fair point. I was assuming a fit McNeil on left. My hope is we sign a RW. But if we don’t, it’ll be interesting to see who Moyes starts on right. Can’t see him running out Jack Harrison, no matter how great his hair looks.
 
Anyone think this chap will get played in the Cahill role by Moyes

There's options for him, that's one, another us trying to utilise him like either Pienaar or Osman played for Moyes, neither of those were very physical at all - but both had good touch and interplay, think Moyes will like trying to unlock the lad tbh. If he busts under Moyes he's done at the club, but got a sneaky feeling we will see a very good second half of the season from the lad.

Moyes had a really good record taking midfielders and finding the best spot/role for them in fact.

Pienaar, Osman, Arteta, two who came in almost like Lindstrom did, still relatively young but who were almost in the verge of being written off as not good enough at the top level.

All three went in to show they were good players at this level - Arteta became exceptional as did Pienaar helped by Baines.

I see Lindstrom at a similar career juncture actually, could have ended up with the perfect manager to turn his career around, here's hoping so, added bonus if if notes does then a bit like with both Arteta and Pienaar he's on loan but can be brought in permanently easily.
 

We've needed them for years. Ones who can ideally run/have any pace.

It would make a massive difference - can see why we've been trying. Gnonto. Philogene. Minteh. Kudus.

I know you personally don't rate the lad mate, but as I've just posted, if there's one manager who can get it to work for him here it'd be Moyes
 

He's going to take one look at Lindstrom and we will never see him ever again.

He's weaker than watery bovril.
He'd be right if that's the case.

I'm not a Moyes fan, but he'll certainly start getting the likes of me onside if he puts out a properly committed side that fights. The likes of Lindstrom has no part to play in that.

I never understand this opinion about harrison - I think his hair is sh1te...

There's nobody else in this paper thin squad is the problem. I'm not shocked the first name on the transfer rumors is a pacy winger.
 
Hopefully Moyes has done his homework and moves Jesper, and others like Ndiaye to their natural positions.
They both have the same natural position though don't they? Behind the CF. Harrison, much as he drives me mad has never actually been played in his and McNeill is either wide left or number 10. Somehow we've managed to play all of them, except arguably McNeill, in unfavoured positions, have no-one who can actually play RW and included Doucoure who can't dribble or pass the ball as the number 10. No wonder we've got no idea how to create chances from open play.
