My fan fiction single signing with this money is definitely Wharton. Semenyo would be amazing but IMO wouldn’t be the biggest upgrade possible AND would block Odobert evolving into … Odozard? Odosaur? Odostoise?
I'd add that I think these stats are useful for telling us specifics about what happened, but shouldn't be gospel for predicting the future.
E.g. xG shows that we've rode our luck a bit with actual shots taken BUT given our new manager, players, and tactics, it's reasonable to expect improvement.
I agree - and he's had some incredible crosses and assists.
Maybe what's tripping me up is that his raw numbers are going to be great because getting him the ball is the majority of our attack. www.youtube.com/watch?v=iydc...
But it still feels like he could be doing more with each chance.
I think if he started putting in more consistent shots / crosses he’d be a great shout. I feel like he has too many goofs in the final 1/3rd to be there. He could get there though…
Kompany showed the way: Prove your style can be amazing at a smaller club IF you have the right talent. Then get hired by a megaclub with a talent advantage where your style can dominate.
