Would this suggest the fringe player leaving us is clucas?

He’s been mentioned before sounds like a decent player who’s more of an AM. So what we need.

Sounds like he's more of a creative type in terms of his skillset. More of an 8 than a 10, assume he'd be the one to get forward in a 3-5-2 just ahead of Baker and one of Laurent/Kilkenny?

Thankfully we should soon have more idea what all this looks like in practice I'm finding our business very confusing or confused, we'll soon know which. |

Yep - some signings make sense more than others on paper, will be interesting to see how it looks once our business is done. |

Coming back from injury and better suited as an 8.
Sounds about right 😂
He seems a good player though so let’s see what happens.

He's been back since October so similar to Tyrese and like Tyrese has looked very sharp in pre-season.
Sounds like the creative midfielder we've been crying out for in Powell's absence.

To be fair,Bayern, it seems like he's been fit for ages, played three 90 minutes for Ireland u21s over the summer, and has played a lot for them in pre-season Hassenhutl seems to think he can play anywhere in midfield www.dailyecho.co.uk/sport/20070932.very-good-footballer-smallbone-shows-keep-hasenhuttls-faith/On nailing down his best role, Hasenhuttl added that it is not so simple: “Eight, ten, six, I think these are all positions he can play normally, and where he will get the chance to play in the future. |

If this happens, and even not counting Clucas, that's a lot of options in midfield who will expect to play a lot.
Interesting to find out what the plan is.
Baker
Laurent
Kilkenny
Smallbone
Thompson
...and Powell

If you play the wingbacks with little defensive responsibility it can still be very effective. Just we already know MON won't. |
