    He'll definitely still be on the clubs radar and De Zerbi will know all about him. His whoscored page indicates he is very versatile and excels in a few positions.

    The guy is currently with his national squad, so any transfer business is in the hands of his agent. Don't be surprised if this ain't over yet. We had an offer accepted and now Fiorentina have either matched that offer or upped it. The fact that this all being played out in the press stinks...

    I guess the 2 Fiorentina players in the Argentina Copa America squad managed to convince him. Shame Mac Allister wasn't called up, he might have made the difference.

    Sky lol Maybe true, but needs verifying.

    Come on, that account has 100 followers. A little due diligence please. At the moment everyone is quoting the Argentine Damesh Seth. Let's just wait and see rather than regurgitate twitter bollox again.

    True, plus the Argentinian press cant be relied upon as they will be in favour of a move to Fiorentina because its a well known destination for Argentinian players ever since Passarella went there in the 80s and Batistuta in the 90s.

    Which ever way we slice it, he is an upgrade on Maupay. Gonzalez averaged 0.77 goals or assists per 90 this season. Maupay averaged 0.36 this season and 0.42 the season before. Edit: In the interests of fairness, Welbeck averaged 0.41 this season

    Im not sure thats correct, Ive taken this from Whoscored.com, its a breakdown of his season at Stuttgart and his Copa America appearance the other night.. He's clearly most productive as a No9.

    And even theirs aren't guaranteed to succeed, Naby Keita and Donny Van de Beek cost about £90m combined.

    That's a year out of date now, hopefully he has improved since. Here is a scattergraph from the same site, looking at the most effective strikers from Ekstraklasa, Swiss Super League, Eredivisie, Belgian Pro League, Championship, and Eliteserien. This is the kind of data our recruitment...

    So is this guy Izquierdo's replacement or an indication that Welbeck aint hanging around?

    You're probably right, but Duffy played for us a couple of days before going to Celtic.

    Looking at his Whoscored.com match ratings, it looks like this guy is destined to be our new LWB. Not an alternative to Nunez.

    I love this sort of stat analysis. But I admit player recruitment is much more nuanced. This is where a good scout really earns thier percentage of profits made off of the back of their recommendations.

    Gonzalez might just be waiting for the right coach, much like Raheem Sterling was.

    Just spotted he gets a mention in the piece I linked to in the Darwin Nunez thread. https://totalfootballanalysis.com/data-analysis/data-analysis-recruiting-from-the-second-tier-strikers They say, We should also discuss the other outlier in the data in the 21-year-old Argentinean forward...
