Dejan Kulusevski

Good signing. Gives us very different options on the RW - him vs Porro - and at 23 year old, he's done a lot in that time and has many years on his side.

Difficult to see how this could ever be a bad deal however, rightly or wrongly, I don't really view this as a new signing as always assumed he'd be staying!

 

[Sandman]

He has a great cross. But I would play him as an AMF unless we sign someone else. He has the eye for a good pass. I hope he is used like that as an option.

There is a lesson here for some people regarding the media and believing them ...

Remarkable!!

Seems normal to me.

 

[Robbo]

Great piece of business. Glad to have him signed up permanently.

Our season turned when he got injured a few weeks before the world cup. While there were obvious things he contributed as an individual, there seems some extra he contributed to the team.

Do not hold your breath.

Good player who should get better as he gets older.

 

[Gutter Boy]

Would like to see this first choice front 6 next season:

-------------Bentancur----------Bissouma
--Porro------------Kulusevski---------------Son
-------------------------Kane----------------

This should have been done one or two weeks ago......and why didn't we just pay the 35m we were due too?
It's a fudging disgrace Ive had to wait this long. It's ruined the last fortnight.

I’d contact corporate and demand your money back and a book voucher valid at any WH Smith in the Hull area.

postcoglou plays 4-3-3 and even if he didn’t, we should sign an actual number 10 rather than hope we could re-mould an existing player to that position

There's not much difference between the two - 4-2-3-1 is a bit more possession based with the #10 a bit higher, whereas 4-3-3 is more counter attacking. But you can effectively do both at the same time.

A lot of people have said Kulu's long term position would be as a 10. And if Postie likes direct WFs, that also enables that.

I don't think we'll sign a higher calibre AM than Kulu this summer, not with needing to strengthen 3/4 positions.

 

[SpurMeUp]

If only we could sign more players of this guy’s calibre.

 

[AdamB]

I think we'll sign players like him (and Bentancur) in a sense that they might not be the most glamerous looking signings when they happen, but which we hope will perform like those two when they do join
