toonotl 3402 Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) What's this kid's position? Mozzarella? Parmigiana? Cheese Toasty? Wearing the Brazilian No. 5 so I'm guessing he's in the Dunga mold. So maybe holding mid/DM? Edit: Seems to score a few goals. That romanticised jogo bonito rhythm can't be contained by Fish's boring world of 'cheese-variety-like' labels.

Craig 6799 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 This might be the long-term Shelvey replacement to play in the number 6 role allowing Bruno to concentrate further up the field. Definitely one for the long term given his only 18. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 11313 Posted October 14, 2022 Share Posted October 14, 2022 Andrey Santos: The Next Gem From Vasco’s Academy? – Breaking The Lines Quote He’s formed a solid midfield trio along with the likes of Nene and Yuri Lara. With the former offering the creative spark and Yuri being a top-notch defensive midfielder, Andrey’s free to roam and do as he please playing in what managers love to call “the number 8 role”. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aimaad22 4655 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 RW - Upgrade Miggy. Love the guy, incredible run of form but he is still a limited player, will be interesting to see what level of performance he can keep up once the goals dry up a bit. In any case he should be a great second choice/rotation option to our shiny new winger, Murhpy and Fraser just dont cut it at this level. DM - Upgrade Longstaff, allow Bruno a little more freedom AM - Someone like Maddison who can play across the front and create chances when teams shut up shop (going to happen more and more against us with time) We are 2-3 players away from being proper scary 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs were in a piss with Conte for being 3rd, and are in a sour piss still being 3rd - after being beaten. Next season we are not 2/3 players away from being proper scary, we are 5ish players into the side so we don't have to rely on 15-20+ games from Championship level players like Dummett/Murphy/Manquillo/Krath/Lascelles/Darlow/Fraser/Wood. We may be in top 4, but the season isn't over, less than a third in - and Paul Dummett is still registered to play. I love the excitement, but I hate seeing the the 'one-hand-on-throphy' mentality some fans have, especially the arrogance it's given with. Love the fact we are 4th! It's ours to throw away regarding contention, but I don't think we can be 4th after 38 games. Longer we are 4th, the longer we have a shot, and if we do fall off, we get Europe. Top 10 was my goal this season! Edited October 25, 2022 by HendricksLipton 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaser 1357 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Yeah our depth in the squad is there to see. Eddie has done wonders with the players who were already here, but to progress we are going to have to move on from them. I get the sense of ambition from the fans, but I hope the fanbase doesn't turn into a bunch of expectant arseholes the minute that we have a dip in form. It's been upward trajectory since the start of the year, and that can't last forever. We are better building this project slowly and getting in the right characters. If it's another 1 or 2 in come January then that'll be great. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's great to have the confidence in the manager and the owners to only make moves that improve our team and fit in with the team ethos and not just based on price/availability just to get someone through the door. One or two in January is fantastic if they improve our first eleven. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One or two in January is fantastic if they improve our first eleven. I think that's been the key so far, the right characters. I accept that money is a deciding factor in changing clubs, I've done it myself in my career, but there has to be other push/pull factors to coming to our club. Hopefully the way we are setting up, playing attractive high press football is making some of our targets sit up and consider their options. Every one of our signings has made an impact. Karius and Wood are probably those who are feeling a bit left out but they will come into their own in a cup run this year with a bit of luck. Eddie seems keen to make sure the whole squad is involved in the project so I don't expect us to have the number of players that Chelsea or City have had. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
