Too busy having his arse licked by the scouse trio post match,why not just ask him when you signing for us because we can't wait
I thought he's been their best player tonight and the final.
If money is really limited for this summer we should just sign a striker and Macallister for whatever money it takes and spend the rest of the window getting rid of the deadwood.
Scouse feckers are ahead of us on this
Yeah and no doubt we'll be announcing Fred's new deal as they announce his signing.
Worst I have felt after a defeat in ages,will just be kick in teeth when they do that too
He’s a baller, him and Caicedo bossed our midfield.
Imagine thinking this guy is no better than Fred or Sabitzer.
Imagine thinking this guy is no better than Fred or Sabitzer.
So if you have to choose one who would it be,then again could easily lose him to scousers and Caicedo to gooners which hurts
Caicedo was at rightback. Gilmour and Mac Allister were on top of Casemiro and Fred
It’s absolutely the right metric, because there’s no guarantee we would be able to entice someone like De Jong here this summer. Having a young, accomplished midfielder who can cover multiple positions and if not excel, then always give you 7/10 performance, is a massive improvement on what we have now.
Depends on who we can bring in, if we can get De Jong then I’d pass on him, and try to bring in Lavia as understudy for Casemiro since he would be cheaper. But if not then we should absolutely get him in, whenever Eriksen isn’t on the field we struggle massively to build play, and Eriksen is weaker in possession than Mac Allister.
Only when we are in possession, he played closer to DM when they have the ball, pushing up the field while their shape came closer to a 3-4-3.
We will never sign De Jong,so gonna take it you would prefer us to sign Mac Allister then
Yes, especially over the rumoured Mount or Maddison (most likely bollocks, tbf). While not having cover for Casemiro is an issue, we don’t even have a partner for him to begin with. Casemiro-Eriksen-Bruno will never dominate games for you consistently.
Mount is utterly underwhelming to say the least,would like Maddison if we didn't have about 7 positions above on priority list
If he stayed being a Scotsman Fergie would have persuaded him to join United 
Get this fecker out of scousers handsIf he stayed being a Scotsman Fergie would have persuaded him to join United
This. Would have been a game changer for us.
Glad you say would because lost him to scousers
Probably true. And the way some of our players behaved last night probably did not help.
But with both us and Liverpool chasing him he will be very expensive. I would not mind Man Utd paying a silly fee for him at all. Hope we really push the fee Liverpool have to pay for him.
Yeah definitely worth pushing boat out for along with Lavia which would definitely make us better on the ball in midfield at least
He’ll do very well for them. Not certain he’s the ideal player for us but definitely an upgrade on what we have and if we don’t add someone of higher quality to our midfield this summer, one that we could regret missing out on.
He does what we want Eriksen to do for us on the ball, but without leaving them exposed defensively because he likes to get the ball back as well. 3 tackles, along with Mitoma the most in the Brighton team this match. Although Mitoma also had 3 interceptions to 0 from Mac Allister
He is a class player, we are going to miss out on him by the looks of it.
Why are we going to lose out to them? Them of all clubs.
We lose midfield battles week in week out. I’m still not massively moved by him. I think he’ll do well enough for the Dippers though
He's the kind of midfielder ten Hag wants. Press resistant, can play one touch passing, can retain possession, can play final third pass, work horse, and he can play as double pivot 6, 8 and 10. He also seems to have top mentality. Unfortunately, if we sign this guy, we have to forget about signing 100m striker.
Can be a top player in the right team and setup.
We do, but at the same time if you watch his involvements in the video above thats some quality play to keep the ball well above the level of players we usually lose midfield against. Stronger, really good balance and feet, and determined to come away with it and find a pass.
Good player but an annoying, whining, little rat.
Players like this who can keep the ball in tight spaces and can’t be pressed into sloppy turnovers will help us win those battles. The issue is that we lack someone who can start moves off, even more. But maybe Martinez and Shaw stepping in and taking that responsibility off Casemiro will allow us to sign this player and make it work? Or maybe he’s more complete than I think and can excel even deeper.
I completely get that - and agree, really - but if it’s mostly just press resistance we’re after, surely there has to be more out there? We won’t have the budget to blow £60m+ and afford our other big targets
Because they’re doing the business early. Our hands are tied until the takeover is agreed.
No need to talk about Bruno like that!
Reminds you of one of our players?
I thought I am not in Bruno thread.
Based purely on the sample from last night Bruno isn't in the same league. Plus, Mac Allister goes red in the face, like an archetypical gammon (reaching here)
Didn’t realise he was joining Liverpool and it had been agreed already.
Him & Bellingham.. that’ll be some window for them.

I can picture this cnut in a scouse shirt, has one of those faces and the whiny attitude to match.
