Think its more a case of replacing DVB who is also better at those things than our DMs but Ralph doesnt want to play him and presumably we'd let him go if we got a replacement. Think Fred and McTom are still going to be the better ball winners while Haidara is the better passer, but hes one Ralph might actually pick.
Just glancing through his stats, I assume the above indicates some role/position change between last season and this?
Regardless, the things he's consistently posting highest for generally across the last three seasons are stats like progressive passes, through balls, passes into the opposition penalty area, passes under pressure, carrying/dribbling the ball forward, etc. So I guess those are the areas where he'd provide the upgrade in theory? I.E. getting the ball forward to our attackers?
