Sorry by tactical adjustments, I meant Olise and Eze adjust to Ange's vision for a winger (stay out wide and firing balls across the box); rather than Ange change his style.

Olise isn't a winger that will go on the outside, so no I don't think he would
We would have to completely change tactics to have our fullbacks go outside not inside, considering how bad we have been recently and the lack of changing tactics, including him saying as much their won't be any changing
Unless we play him centrally, then why would we sign both
bus-conductor would know more tactically
To Dare Is To Do.
It’s a valid point. Not one I’d even given loads of thought to myself re Olise.
If it’s a “go outside” guy or even a go both ways guy, then maybe Olise isn’t ideal. If it was just about his qualities, I’d still take a punt, because even as a guy who comes inside a lot he produces - and we could maybe adapt and have Porro go outside more. But with Olise, an even bigger problem is the amount of football he missed.
I also really like Eze. On the ball he’s great. But there’s a couple of things that niggle me with him as well. Without the ball he’s a bit light on work. And the other thing is, he needs to want to get on the ball more in games. As a wide forward (he played wide left tonight) those aren’t huge issues - and for that remit I’d take the punt and hope a coach could improve them - but as an 8, those things might be issues for us.
It’s tricky though, because whoever we get will come with compromises, as I’m sure we aren’t going to go and buy people like Kvaratskhelia etc.
Fair enough, just a difference of opinion but it's all good
Olise is probably the best footballer outside the top 6 clubs. I'd be amazed if he isn't at a big CL title chasig club in the summer.
Decision making, the football IQ, the technique on him. Ridiculous. The only question mark with Olise is his fitness issues.
Such a shame we didn't sign him when we were interested when he was at Reading. Those years without a DOF robbed us of signing some top young talent.

Its true we have missed out on alot of talented players, we currently have a talented group of youth players who we will waste if not given time

Has Ange not called for wholesale changes to our squad?

We need a leftie
Ben Davies
Anderson is a wardrobe, absolutely no use in our high line.
I was just pointing out just because a player is good doesn't mean we should sign him
Problem is buying from within the Prem you get your pants pulled down on price. For value have to look abroad.
