'Kinell! Some of the ball manipulation and close control in that video is Iniesta-like. Was this a freakish display (like McTom against Leeds) or does he actually play like this week in week out?Tweet

Camavinga vibes. Though he’s right footed.
Looks great here, didn't expect a song that I liked to be used either.Tweet

I think media is just linking us with all the player Ragnick recommended, but since arrival of ETH, we have turned towards entirely different targets.He looks like he would slot in perfectly for us.
So therefore we probably have no interest.
Beautiful close control.Looks great here, didn't expect a song that I liked to be used either.
Fred was plucked from a functional side, something he hasn’t been a part of at United.I mind watching a video of Fred playing like that vs City in the Champions League. Then we signed him and he never ever played like that again.
Imma need whoever laid the music over this video to have words with them youtubers cause the typical Oooonts-Ooonts music isn’t for me.Tweet

So he’s kind of like Matic then? Matic gets involved in the buildup as well and has good ability to bring the ball forwardOnly be able to see him in a handful of games last season. He's not an out out no6 off the first impression. His role is more comparable to Camavinga at RM.
Another exciting French midfielder prospect worth signing of course. But IMO that pivot/deep play maker is still a must regardless of this pursuit.
In large part because of his poor positioningFred was plucked from a functional side, something he hasn’t been a part of at United.
Ndombele?Reminds me of that lazy prick Spurs got rinsed over!
Not Matic. Matic is a pivot midfielder in my view. Closer to Kante role in Matic-Kante partnership at Chelsea. Still do plenty of dirty work and more defensive oriented, but with more freedom to press, or join the attack.So he’s kind of like Matic then?

Thats him.....looked good on the ball but could not hack the pace when he came to England.Ndombele?
That's because Fred plays more confident closer to goal. Look at his performance against Atletico recently.I mind watching a video of Fred playing like that vs City in the Champions League. Then we signed him and he never ever played like that again.
Himself and Sangaré must have been taking the piss in the same Ligue 2 midfield. Looks like a really fun player.Tweet

Thanks for posting the link. His Twitter posts provide a really good summary of the player. I get a much greater feel of what he's like as a player rather than me watching some YouTube videos.He's apparently linked to Liverpool too - there's a football scout on twitter I follow (liverpool fan) that does quite good analysis on players every so often and he's provided a good multi-tweet thread discussing Koné pros and cons for those not familiar with his game.

I remember the same video and I wasn’t impressed in the slightest. I was actually surprised to see Fred perform well a couple of years ago, because ever since that video I was convinced he couldn’t.I mind watching a video of Fred playing like that vs City in the Champions League. Then we signed him and he never ever played like that again.
