An Interesting Article

Nice one - I was saying this when the injury happened, it is such an underrated role within the team.

Id say it is one of the most important when it comes to teamwork and fluid football.

Good read.

That sad thing is that this problem (lack of cover for Lucas) was a glaring weakness in the squad and was never addressed, bar the signing of Poulsen

BR desperately needs to sign a DM., because there is no guarantee how good Lucas will be after such a serious knee injury.

i don't think we need to spend much money in that position. we have lucas in that position and yes he might not be as he was after such a serious injury but we also don't want to bring someone in who would potentially start ahead of coady if lucas gets injured again and spearing isn't trusted.

failing that, i'd like the club to take a look at this guy http://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/en/zuculini/profil/spieler_115507.html

by all respects he's a tough tackling defensive midfielder who is also pretty decent on the ball. he's considered an excellent prospect and would still be quite cheap being fairly unknown.

But what would his wage demands be

I still have not seen many Pato arguments, god i live in a bubble!

Flamini is available on a free - he would fit.

I've wanted Lassana Diarra for a while also.

We could buy back Diarra who played DM for France and looked very capable.

Thought Keita was available on a free... Very effective player

Lucas is such a beast! Having him back will be like a new signing, such an important player for us

Can't we just bring Didi Hamann back?
