It's too big 625 Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 We can't keep signing foreign players, we don't have enough home grown. Why do you think we're targeting English players? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you think we're targeting English players? We do have a few more spaces. Eduardo, Caballero, Courtois, Rüdiger, Luiz, Azpilicueta, Kanté, Bakayoko, Alonso, Pedro, Hazard, Willian, Bats, Morata. That's 14. I didn't count Diego and Rémy since I am sure they are leaving. Even if Loic stays we'll be able to sign some foreign guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Seems like he is realy pushing for a move away from Monaco. Im not sure if we can guarantee him starting spot, but he would definately play alot this season and he could even cover RB or RWB position if required. His pal Bakayoko is here, not to mention few brazilians aswell. Kante, Bakayoko, Fabinho and Cesc would be midfield we should target. Or is our pulling power so weak, we have no chance in getting him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzy_Vance 454 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Honestly, Fabinho and a decent English LWB like Bertrand would be all we need to walk the league again. I would feel extremely comfortable with: -------------------Tibo ------Azpi-------Luiz--------AC Fabinho---Kante----Baka-----Bertrand -------Pedro-----------------Eden -------------------Morata Cesc, Gary, Willian, Rudiger, Willy, Batshuayi, Moses, Boga, Musonda and Alonso would be very good and flexible depth. We are actually very close to forming a very good team. The foundation is there. We just need to add the cream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,977 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Doubt he's even on our radar. Our club are instead too enamored with average English players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King11Didier 916 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Signing this guy would be brilliant, he can play in mid and also as RWB, as is seems, we won't have big squad, so it would make sense to buy players who are capable of playing in number of different positions, Fabinho can do that very well. Unfortunately can't see it happen with our "competent" board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzy_Vance 454 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 You're actually getting two players for the price of one with Fabinho. An exceptional RB and an exceptional midfielder. One player who can cover two positions brilliantly. He'd probably cost around the same as Danny f***ing Drinkwater too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Fabinho starting at RWB and providing midfield cover is actually not a bad shout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 As things stand right now Matuidi will go to juve and Psg will buy Fabinho... But we will have Drinkwater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arlen Correa 161 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 He was not called to the nt again. The coach Tite is talking about three U-20 of the local league ahead of Fabinho. I was watching the last Monaco game and he looks great in possession and passing, but i think he's slow in the defense. is not so hard to dribble him Doesn't looks a DM to me, maybe if the system was 4-2-3-1.

Wont be a priority. Not even worth considering after signing Bakayoko and Drinkwater in the summer, unless it’s some sort of bargain once in a lifetime fee (which it won’t be). Our midfield needs creativity, not more defensive minded players considering we already have Kante, Bakayoko and Drinkwater in those roles. Fabinho’s clearly not a RB/RWB either now a days so it would be a stupid move as well to sign him to play there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nathangeorge99 27 Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Our midfield is stacked in terms of quantity, but not quality. Is this guy one of the best central midfielders out there, and would he upgrade our team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
