Definitely. So many of the PL games come down to an outright scrap in the middle of the pitch, that's why Dembele and Dier have become virtually indispensable.
Wanyama would offer cover for both of them and also for the centre backs, as Dier would be able to be moved back.
Wasn't there a story that Levy was going to buy him in the summer but Pochettino didn't want him?Prefer Charlie Austin to Berahino. Unselfish, good work ethic, great scoring record in PL in a crap team. Won't happen though with Levy and resale values.
YOU'RE NOT REALLY THAT GOODHe's not really that good tbh
Ok, I'll compromise. Can you let Levy know, please?
What do you mean you don't do this dm bollocks? Are you saying you don't believe players have or need different roles?in your opinion!.... personelly don't go with all this dm bollocks!.. 3/4/5 midfielders who know each others game and work well together and adaptable in any system is a far better way .. imho.
keyholing one player to a specific role limits options..
not everybody was crying out for a new dm.. this is something the "modern" game has invented.
Did you read Jenas' article on Berahino? Worth a quick read.I've said no to signing him, he comes over as a bit of a spoilt brat, and I think he would upset the balance and team spirit that Poch has built. Maybe if he became available at a very low price, I might consider it, but I think we should go shopping elsewhere.
He hasn't said he wouldn't play, no. But if you believe Pulis, he certainly hasn't put his head down and got on with it either. This weekend he said he was lucky to make the bench!As far as I am aware, he hasn't come out and refused to play? Correct me if I am wrong though. He has still made himself available, going by his twitter and other social media he is still working very hard and keeping himself fit so if we do end up signing him he won't be out of shape of unfit and he should be ready to slot right in.
