He was fantastic one game and extremely rash the other times. Is he decent? He is very low IQ CB just like what we already have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember Lampard saying generic stuff about other transfer rumors back then - like now - and nothing happened then but I don't recall anything on Ziyech. Could be wrong. Yes it did. This is how we operate. Regarding Havertz I believe no one made offer yet. Situation with him will be resolved after season is finished.

Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk I don't think he would outright lie. His comment obviously does not rule out a bid being made at some point but it firmly rules out that one had been made up to the time of his press conference earlier today. If we are going to go in, presumably we'll do so once B04's Champions League fate has been settled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, depending on the game with the versatility we have,shift to 4-3-3,4-2-3-1,4-1-2-1-2 or even 3 at the back. But yeah .... Even if we do not sign Havertz I am still sure Tammy will not be starting 11 next season. Frank finally realized Giroud is better and with Werner and Havertz possible here he will be backup at best. At the moment Pulisic-Werner-Ziyech is the way to go next season. DDA, Johnnyeye and Fernando 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think it is either Havertz or Werner not both. With or without willian we have enough attacker for next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Timo/Puli - Tammy/Giroud - Ziyech/Cho I haven't added Barkley, mount, ruben and Anjorin. That is a lot of attacker. I also assume that michy will be gone next summer.

Tammy/Giroud Timo/Puli - Mount/RLC - Ziyech/CHO That looks notably weaker in my opinion, and then if you consider us potentially selling Jorginho we will be probably playing Mount or RLC as a back-up CDM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't move Jorginho unless we can sign midfielder and no mount and Ruben cannot play as backup dm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has all the attributes to be able to do this job. I agree we probably won't sign a midfielder unless Jorginho goes, but there's no doubt that Havertz would be a step up from our current attacking midfielders and would fit into the team.

RLC is very lethargic, he can't play dm. I really like Mount so I don't think it is a major step up. But let assume it is, for 100m,he better be game changer.

He cannot play in the middle (No.8 or No.6) owing to his work rate. Only way to get the best out of him is to put him somewhere in the front line and get the ball to his feet.

Atomiswave 6,117 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 I dont think RJ will be a super bad idea down the road as DM, not now of course but when he matures etc his style would suit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
