DDA 9,941 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Bellingham has the potential to become one of the greatest English midfielders of all time, maybe just maybe one of the greatest in the World. An all round box to box machine. Enzo is a different player..one that I feel we need far more than a Bellingham. Enzo has the ability to unlock defences with line splitting passes from ridiculously acute angles... he has the tenacity of a pitbull and reads the game excellently well... we need this desperately in our midfield. I also think he would be perfect for Andre Santos to learn from. mkh, MoroccanBlue and Costa19 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,385 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 From what I gathered, it should be no problem working up a deal with Benfica right now for a summer move. Similar to Nkunku. It's persuading Enzo on the project that is the issue. Money helps, but we need to get him on board with what we are trying to do. Potter allegedly wanting a complete midfield revamp earns a lot of admiration as Tuchel has ignored the midfield for two years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CM is an issue if we want to push for 4th. Cannot see them in this instance being happy to shell out the big bucks and then wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,952 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Sounds like Badiashile is one step away from joining. Still not able to get excited about the move. Again, he’s a talented player who looks like he’ll go on to be very solid but he simply looks like the wrong fit stylistically for our team. Unless Potter’s plan long term is to go with a back 4 I just don’t see Badiashile being the ideal LCB for the Premier League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) 11 hours ago, Hashishi said: How did they get him so cheap? Good player who suits Liverpool to the ground IMO. £37m is a snip and proof you don’t need to spunk £50-60m to get good players. Plenty scope for improvement, shocked United didn't make him their priority when Ronaldo left although aye its maybe cause he’s not a natural 9. Not buying us getting this Fernandez deal done - 120m euros in January, or higher on a structured deal which they may not even accept, is incredibly unlikely. We’ve spent £60m on Nkunku already for the summer, signed Fofana for somewhere between £10-15m (apparently), Andre Santos is close to coming for £13m and the CB from Monaco is apparently another £30-35m. So I doubt it. Just seems very football manager/FIFA career mode to spend £250m in the summer then spend another say £230-250m in January.

And you can see at the World Cup he’s a very diverse player in terms of how he can play as a focal point, a 10 or from the sides. Not the level of Suarez (and maybe wont ever reach that level) but I would say a very similar type of find in terms of the age profile, the flexibility he can offer, the experience he’s already got also.
