Florian and the (Slot) Machine

[dmishra]

I can't dig it out, but I saw one if the radars comparing Yamal and Wirtz and they were identical. Identical. Yamal is already getting talked about as a multiple balón dor winner, and is obviously doing it as a ridiculous age, but it shows the level of player we are signing. Basically if you're only very excited by this, you're not excited enough.

What I will say about that however is that our opponents after some time caught up to that, they doubled up on him and restricted the amount of space on the outside of them so he has gotten past opponents less frequently I would say than is his first 2 years. But of course he is still a major threat just because opponents have to work very hard to limit his space and even then he has his moments and is still dangerous.

I know this is a Florian thread, but I like this bit about Frimpong. So teams will have to double up on him & doubel up on Salah - thats nearly half their outfield players spoken for already. Whoever plays 9 & 10 for us will have field day

Florian Wirtz is one of the top five players in the world right now.

And tbh even though I said five I can't be arsed thinking who the other four are.

Rice, Maguire, Pickford and Grealish.

Didn't even require any thinking.

Rice, Maguire, Pickford and Grealish.

That sounds like my lunch.

Hmm here's few names to consider : Yamal, Raphina, Vinicius Jnr, Pedri, M'Bappe, Vitinha, Bellingham (whether the forum likes it or not he is), & Haaland? I'm sure we could come up with some others even Macca, VvD, Ali and Mo. all in the mix !

If we want to discuss Frimpong, this is the thread. The Frimpong thread is only about biscuits and candy bars.

They should name a choccy bar Frimpong.

Yeah - team mates always like to pour sunshine up one another's arses. I think Messi said Romero was the best defender in the world - but that don't make it true.

When those team mates are backed up by numerous others it's a lot more likely to be true than not.

I hope Wirtz isn't watching this.

I hope Wirtz isn't watching this.

He'll be looking at the the space and creative absence and licking his lips

€130m total sounds about right.
€100m base and €30m add ons.

Interesting that Bayern are saying the Wirtz deal would have been used from."special funds".

Similar to what I expect this to be for us.

Essentially we are going to sign him to make him our "New Hope" once Salah leaves.

I wonder if Adidas is involved. He’s one of their stars and posterboy.
