I want you to all imagine, for one second, that we sign Diawara, Ndombele and Lo Celso this summer. I then want you all to go grab a new pair of undies.

Yes please.

Exactly what we need.
No concerns over his athleticism/mobility? I understand he can play a ball and has more footballing ability than wanyama or dier but not really sure he would make us more dynamic. Of course that might not matter depending upon who is paired with him but it is a concern that perhaps those that support this potential xfer can shed light on.

He's a beast, in the mold of a Kante. Were we to land someone like a Rabiot in addition to him, and factor Winks into the mix, we have a pretty formidable midfield with players that each offer something unique.

EDIT: Sorry... I thought you were referring to NDembele. Not Diawara. In which, I kinda dig what your saying.

Might not be as knowledgeable as some people but I think he's got dynamism and ability on the ball. All round midfielder imo. Reckon he'd be good in a two man midfield or at the base of a 3. We'd be good in midfield if we got him and a playmaker to replace Eriksen.

Yes, I meant Diawara. But to clear things up on Ndombele, who I am very familiar with, I hope you don't have expectations of him actually being like Kante. He is not. He hunts but not incessantly like Kante. He is definitely more #8 than Kante will ever be. Pairing of him and Rabiot would leave your MF with an adventurousness with which I don't feel Poch would be comfortable. In the PL I do believe Ndombele would need a more defensive-natured partner. It wouldn't have to be an out and out DM but it probably couldn't be Rabiot unless it was Pep-style or purely countering.

So latest rumour is that Napoli, United and Juventus are fighting over Trippier. This is going to be a long summer ..
It’s no more insane than Scarlett Johansson, Emilia Clarke and Lily Collins fighting over A&C yet I’m lead to believe that’s a weekly occurrence...
