RoyMac5 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Quote We understand Town are keen to add two central midfielders to their squad with Derby County’s Graeme Shinnie among the other potential new recruits. Is all it says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's limited. He's good at what he does, was asked to do too much attacking wise last season than he should. I think he'd be great at the base of a midfield three.

I'd tend to agree under normal circumstances however I think letting anyone (aside from Marshall) go right now is probably a bad idea given how difficult it currently is to get players in the door.

whiteroseram Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 One of our few players who based on last season who should be looking at higher teams than us if anything. Not going to league 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are saying he can't play there because his passing isn't good enough. Was Eustace really that good at passing? Eustace's passing/technical ability was sufficient for the role. Yes he'd often move it simply but he tended (from memory) to move things pretty quickly into the rest of the midfield. He was also compensated in part by having two centre backs behind who really could pass. None of that is true for Shinnie. Its also not the primary problem which is that putting him there would likely limit his strengths and magnify his weaknesses. On the Lampard stuff. We can speculate that's what he was signed for but I don't think we have definitive proof because it never played out. The other to keep in mind is stylistically Lampard clearly wanted to build towards a team with a hyper aggressive press without a typical holding midfielder (he tried and failed in that regard with Ledley early on) akin to how Klopp would set up a 433 but that's something we are miles away from trying to deploy right now.

A number 8 not a 6. i personally don't think he has the creativity to play further forward. His best qualities are sweeping up, tackling, leadership, giving simple passes, great stamina, reading of the game. All of which seem more suited to holding mid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 We shouldn't even be entertaining this. He was great last season, and in a relegation dog fight, he is the exact player you need. Bags of character and commitment to the cause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
