Partey - Bissouma would be a difficult pivot for any team to play against. If they go down he could be an absolute bargain.
Yeah he’s a beast. Our midfield would really be something.
Another goal scoring midfielder to add to the ranks.
Tackle, pass five yards to Partey, repeat, win.
Pretty safe investement. Young, pl proven and wont be on a hefty salary.
I wouldnt wanna be a cm against a Party-Bissouma combo thats for sure.
Sounds like Gueye, a player it always annoyed me that we didn’t sign.
He’d have been perfect for us a few years back.
He was such a great player. Baffling StatDNA didn’t pick that up.
I called Gueye as a possible Kante type when he was in Ligue 1 due to whoscored stats
Fuck it Bissouma and Buendia. Team would be balanced and with some luck should be able to salvage something this season.
Football fans and pundits love them some good African defensive midfielders.
Ndidi, Gueye and Bissouma as of recent.
Although, I hope I never hear that “pace and power” crap again.
I think that’s less to do with them being African and more with them being really good midfielders. At least for me anyway, and that’s why I would want them instead of Xhaka or Elneny. People look to attribute race to everything these days though which is part of the problem.
Sounds like you’re saying racism isn’t an issue, you proto-fascist nazi piece of shit
As a history student this part triggers me more than anything. Choose a lane/ideology!
Just because Hitler nationalised the gas and water works doesn’t make him a socialist, you shitlord!
That’s fair Castiel but personally I still see it a lot online and of course hear it from commentators too. Hell I notice it in FIFA too.
They see a black midfielder and they immediately identify him as a destroyer and throw that “pace and power” crap in there.
Sorry for rambling, I’ll change topic.
Bissouma is a really good player. Hopefully Brighton go down and we steal Lamptey and Bissouma from them.
Funny thing about this is, I don’t know anyone who would object to this description, black, white, Asian etc… (unless their being a snowflake for no reason) I mean it’s like telling people they look good or are good looking, it’s complimentary. But recently it’s some how seen as racist to describe black players as strong or powerful even if the guy is like 190cm and is actually strong and powerful. It’s a madness GC.
I can’t get excited by a Brighton player.
What it is mate is black players get stereotyped as having pace and power but are never given any credit for their intelligence, skill or technique. That’s where the backhanded compliment exists
They were too busy putting together Lucas Perez compilation videos to bad remixes.
