That would be Rice. I think the idea is to use Silva as Rice/Amapdu's mentor as they transition from DMF to CB. I can see both staying and swapping around a little to see best fit.

NikkiCFC 8,373 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I think if we buy Rice he would play as DM next season. Havertz 189cm, Rice 185cm and Silva 183cm would be our 3 tallest players if he plays CB. kellzfresh and Dimitr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

English players heights are for some reason always a bit off. He has been listed at that height since he was 18 and i doubt he just stopped growing there. also he does at least an inch taller than barkley who is listed at 1,86m (which i think is BS, Barkley is 6ft flat max, looks hardly taller than Azpi when they stand next to each other). kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General honest question. Im never impressed with him, to me he looks bang average.

killer1257 3,282 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 Average is a lot better than what we currently haveYes, but paying 20 million for an average GK is not the best idea. Musso or Mike Maignan's prices are similar to Mendy and both are bettee from what I have seen Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Atomiswave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R2D2 368 Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 We should get Zakaria instead of Rice if we want a DM as well, better and cheaper probably. kc_blue and killer1257 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im never impressed with him, to me he looks bang average. Maybe you have a good reason Im not seeing. I think he's a great keeper, a level under world class. He doesn't actually have any glaring weaknesses (consider with the ajax keeper hes go some great reflexes and shot stopping but his tendency to push shots into the area is worrisome). I think his best attribute is his foot work, he is very good at getting down low and close to him. He also uses his feet to save as well but thankfully he's not a nob like Degea who wants to use his feet all the time. Basically, I think he does everything to a good standard. Hes even decent with his distribution. Hes not gonna pass about by Ter Stegen or Ederson nor will he catch crosses like hes picking cherries like Courtois buts hes consistent across the board. In fact, I think this can make him look unremarkable because he rarely makes extraordinary saves. He doesn't need to because he has good positioning. He's not forced to arch like a cat for a shot that often. Also I've almost definitely come to be set on him coming ive almost definitely constructed a better impression of him than he actually is [emoji28]Sent from my SM-G973F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He reminds me of Kepa if anything and not much better to be honest. We will have to agree to disagree on this one. I don’t necessarily think Mendy is worlds better then him, but the only advantage I can give Mendy is that he actually comes for crosses quite a lot. Both goalkeepers arent the best in my opinion but for this season we will have to settle for Mendy and next year we can fix our defense permanently along with the GK position (that will depend if we can move Kepa). mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think if we sign Mendy it means we still have not given up on Kepa and only bring him as a no.2 who is at the peak of his powers that can seamlessly fit in and challenge if kepa is as shit as last season. Maignan would probably be signed as a no.1 given he is basically same age as kepa and needs to play. Muzchap and King Kai 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
