Yeah he plays next to Florentina Luis who is a DM. 

Yep, it would mean then trying to get a genuine DM in the summer - Rice, Caicedo, someone of that ilk.

I would probably prefer someone that is more physically imposing alongside him in the middle.

The Enzo move itself has been extremely surprising considering the numbers we already have in that area. That we’re also talking about an additional midfielder after signing Enzo is insane. And I do indeed see journalists saying we are. 

But how does that square with us offering J5 and Kante new contracts? We gonna have a squad with 10 central midfielders in it? Surely some have to go. Zakaria will go in the summer for certain, but 2 out of Gallagher, Kante, Jorginho, and RLC have to go as well for us to make room for Enzo + someone else if that’s the plan.

Because remember we also have Carney who will be a great player I think as well as Casadei within the next couple of years. Plus this new Brazilian kid we just bought!

Maybe we are offering J5 a contract as a cleaner to have around the grounds... because let's face it, a mop and bucket is all he is good for.

If we can pull out Enzo now we should hope west ham go down and we can get Rice on discount. I believe he is the best CDM option on the market despite the hate.

If we manage to fix the midfield I believe a lot of people will be surprised by Ziyech, Pulisic and co.

Yeah if the money's there to be spent I'd definitely still go for Rice in the summer. Enzo/Rice/Mount/Kovacic as options in midfield would set us up for years with top quality and if Kante extends he would complete the lot for the next 1-2 seasons and play occasionally when fit.

Release Jorginho and try to sell RLC and Gallagher to make room.

Definitely agree that it's easier to get the current attacking duds to play better if the midfield was a functioning unit filled with good options.

He was pictured driving into Benfica's training ground this morning though. The photo was posted on Fabrizio Romano's twitter and originally reported by some Portuguese media.

Could be clearing out the locker and saying good bye to his team mates.

I have been crying for dropping 3 atb system but ironically I think this is best bet again for current set of players after latest signings. I am not optimistic about top4 this season but in CL who knows, it is a specific competition, everything is possible. In CL we could go with 352:

           Fofana Silva Badiashile 

James Kante Enzo Kovacic Chilwell 

This team would be very hard to break.

Anyone know what or who a Tigz is and why people are dropping their drawers over this. I know it's Enzos arm and our shirt but so what

 

People are just excited about the video TIGGZ is going to create about Enzo joining. No scoop or reporting here

Yeah, with the PL season all but finished my biggest hope for the remainder of the way is for us to just get all these key players fit and establish a style. Something we can build on for next season.

I REALLY hope Fofana in particular can put his injures behind him and get a nice long run in the team for a few months. He should be one of our most important players over the next 5 years.
