I think probably any player we're linked with signing is going to be hugely underwhelming on the face of it, and we all need to make peace with it. There's not going to be any technical wizards, no highly sought after players, no young gems.

It's all going to be functional, can they do a job in the system, can they fit in with the collective work rate type players for the time being.

Top work that

Aye. Still something very weird about his time here and since though.

Will be gutted if the rumours are true we're after Harrison on a perm, unless it's for like £6m or something.

Be made up with another ride on the loany pony tho.

As long as it's free like this year with no obligation to buy.

Nothing but the Beste is good enough

He'll end up my Beste if he joins.

Any relation to Gheorghe?

Strikes me as a London boy but I'd love us to try and get Emile Smith-Rowe here.

A combative and hard-working player, he usually played in front of his team's back-line, where he mainly served as a defensive foil for his more offensive teammates, due to his aggressive tackling, as well as his ability to read the game, break down plays, mark and anticipate opponents, and time his challenges. In this role, he connects the team by serving as a link player as the ball is circulated. He is known in for his positional sense, tactical discipline, intelligence, energy, and ball-winning ability. On top of his defensive prowess, Florentino is a composed passer with an excellent understanding of how to link attack and defence. He is highly accurate with his passing, upon receiving the ball, he is exceptional at analysing which pass is the best option based on the position of his teammates, the position and body shape of the defence and the spaces available. He uses various techniques to study his opponents moves before deciding to challenge for the ball. He tries to read his opponent's body posture, the pressure he is under and what passing lanes he has so as to cut them off – before eventually dispossessing them. His playing style has led him to be compared to Claude Makélélé and N'Golo Kanté.

Taken from Wikipedia so he may well have written that himself

Sounds like the perfect long term replacement for Gana though if all that's true.

Well it's an extremely well detailed description that's for sure!

He’s a machine that fella.

Would be a great signing.

We’ve had some great times together on FM and Fifa.

Ndidi and Gueye CMs or Luis and Gueye CMs would just be an absolute fucking nightmare to play through. Rottwheelers.
