He’s a very intriguing prospect. Absolutely no idea where he’ll end up (DM/CM presumably) but wouldn’t be against him coming in next season primarily to cover the wider positions. Definitely one to invest in.

As was Caicedo coming from Beerschot. That worked out quite well though.

I also disagree that O’Riley was pants against Wolves.
Really? And I never touched a drop of alcohol and thought he was poor.

You are not alone on here in thinking he’s shit. I think he’s improved game on game, he just needs another goal and confidence imo

You are only talking about MOR and not Moises as well I hope :lolol:

I think we can say now it would be a surprise if Malick wasn't incorporated into the squad next season.

This leaves us with 6, I make it (Yalcouye, Baleba, Hinsh, Ayari, Weiffer, Gomez) fighting for 2 spots. If Milner signs a playing deal, then 7. If you count O'Riley as a CM then 8.

You'd think then something must give. Gomez to be loaned possibly. Of course if the indisputable number 1 out of that selection of very good players, Baleba is sold then the numbers look about right.
Following a season where three of those midfielders have had long-term absences due to injury and three of them have had to play either full-back or centre-back due to injuries and suspensions in defence, then I think that it's no bad thing to be well-stocked in that area, particularly given the versatility of players like Weiffer, Hinsh and Baleba. Don't forget that it's also an AfCoN season coming up, so we'll be missing Baleba, Minteh and potentially Yalcoue himself for a few weeks.

Afcon starts a couple of days before Xmas with the final on the 18th Jan. So with the facup 3rd round in early Jan, hopefully won't be too painful.

It will be if we get Liverpool at Anfield and Palace get Yeovil at Selhurst

Don’t clubs have to release players a couple of weeks before as well? Seem to remember we were missing Adingra for a few weeks 2 seasons ago.
