But as a Dembele replacement?

We don’t want or need a direct Dembele replacement. His 2 weakenesses were his complete lack of creavity and goals. We’ve already got 2-3 defensive midfielders, we need someone whom can contribute offensively from central midfield. Albeit no chance of getting these players, those in the mould of Modric, De Jong, Rabiot.

100% would take ether of this two and Bailey. Also Paulinho is supposed to be an big prospect although I have only seen YouTube vids. Would take Havertz as an understudy to Eriksen. he’s clearly a very talented AM.
We won't, though, because we mostly seem to chase after big names that the mega clubs want. We need more Foyth-type signings.

Definitely - it's easy to forget he turned down PSG to come to us. He'll be a star at some point, we just need to be patient.

The irritation is that we've waited too long, and the liked of Dembele have now gone. We should have been planning for his succession 18 months ago. Now we need someone to come in and hit the ground running

Haven't seen much of him, but 0 goals and 2 assist in the league is not impressive for a winger. And he's a regular starter.

Saw him on Sky on Sunday. Could be a star - showed real flare.

Will wait until we are linked in The Sun but any deal would eclipse all other signings.

Heard Galaxy are interested too. Would be a stellar player for them.

I saw an article earlier saying Valencia will accept no less than his buyout of 80m Euros so lets close this thread now I think!
