    Aye definitely positive.

    I like the fact this guy is a right winger as well. About time. I want all 3 tho but won't happen. But still. Jota is a write off for the first half of the season so I do believe we need 3 wingers this window.

    Nygren
    Kuhn (or replacement)
    Jota
    Orjasaeter
    Balikwisha
    Forrest (sparingly)

    Maeda
    Idah
    Osmand

    Wonder if with all the winger links we plan to use Maeda up top again.

    Orjasaeter
    Balikwisha
    Jota (when he's back)

    Maeda
    Idah
    Osmund

    Kuhn (or his replacement)
    Nygren
    Forrest

    Punt Palma and Yang, and it's the strongest we've been up top in years

    I think that's defo the plan tbh. Rodgers hinted at it being easier to find a quality winger than striker. If maeda leaves obv changes but we'd hopefully have 25m additional to play with.

    Just get Kvistgaarden tae * it.

    This boy and Orjasaeter for both wings would be terrific business..

    As mentioned he looks a total bargain..

    Just watched his video..he's easily the most impressive and cultured looking of any linked.

    This is an absolute must. For that price as well.

    You could realistically get him and Balikwisha for £5-6m all in. Then Orjasaeter as well for a laugh. £12m and the attack is sorted assuming Maeda stays (and if Kuhn goes replace him with Gustav Isaksen). Easy.

    Let's go basis Khun is gone.

    This guy is his direct replacement and can also play the 10.

    I can see us going back to a 4231

    If we do we'd atill need to replace Kuhn as can't have this guy covering two areas obviously.

    Would love Isaksen but he seems reluctant to move.

    He doesn't look like he has that explosive speed like Kuhn but no slow either..

    Really does look technically high level though. Another player that seems good on the turn and back to goal and comfortable..

    We need more of that..

    Looks like more of a Matt O'Riley type in the footage?

    Hatate's injury probably stops a move this summer

    Looks class. Looks far more suited to the 10 role. Only able to base the opinion on that youtube video tho as have never seen him.

    I'm not seeing him as a no8, personally. Looks too attacking.

    Positions played throughout his career, per transfermarkt.

    [​IMG]

    In a vacuum, I'm skeptical of 6'2'' wingers due to relative lack of pace/explosiveness which I consider hands down the most important trait for wide players. Can't possibly know how BR envisions Nygren's role in the team, but I'd definitely be intrigued to use him in a central role either up front or in midfield.

    Ronaldo is 6ft 2. He done no bad when he was a winger.

    Given his best form has came out wide as well I really don't see why you'd want to * about with that

    Ola Solbakken is over 6ft and we all wanted him at the time, as well.
