JDY 1,290 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Probably an unpopular opinion here but at this moment I think our attack (wingers & strikers) is a far bigger problem than any other area in the team. I don't see how a top midfielder fixes our forwards (bar Felix) not being able to shoot, pass, dribble, hold on to the ball for 2 seconds without losing it. At the moment its just been a constant cycle of getting the ball and either losing possession or passing it backwards, absolutely dire. We've been longing for an injection of pace and magic on the wings since Hazard left. Also spending £62m initially on Mudryk is not the same as just going for Enzo as they want £105m upfront, massive difference. dimmas, YorkshireBlue, blues.bridge and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he have decent decision making? Because if he only speed merchant, he will have hard times here in the PL Fulham Broadway, Blue Armour and Costa19 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said this a few weeks ago on here: Posted January 3 When I've seen him in the CL this season, electric dribbler with pretty decent end product. But the thing that most impressed me was that he dribbles at pace with his head up at all times, which is quite rare for tricky wingers. Allows him to always be aware of his surroundings and pick good passes while on the run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allows him to always be aware of his surroundings and pick good passes while on the run. IF and a big IF, he also can carry the ball under pressure then he will give us another new dimension in our attack. Like we thought Sterling would do. Why we play jo-jo with the ball is because we cant keep it within the team without getting out pressed. Remember when Willian, Hazard, Pedro etc. took the ball and carried it forward helping the whole team getting in to the right attacking positions. Nowadays we just braindead play the ball forward because we cant carry it or controll it for more then 3 seconds lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Hmm. Not sure what to expect. Mudryk is a good player but the fee is ridiculous. I am still convinced if Arsenal match the bid he’s going to go there. These clubs will start rubbing their hands together now to Boehly and co get it right “how much can we get off these”….
