Subject: As alanos' favourite Andre agent I fully agree. But the career numbers of Berge & Lukic are too similar to be a coincidence. There's clearly some thinking going on about why players with these attributes (i.e. good carries, both progressive & safe passing, solid ball-retention) make good defensive mids even without trad defensive traits. Even Andre fits that mold & while he's never played anywhere but as a DM that's likely more because of particular manager at the time has a similar philosophy
In reply to: Henry1879 's message, "Andre was there, younger+ cheaper, be shocked if Souza was 25m+ like we paid for berge. Think it’s more driven by silva’s penchant for multi position players in mid 20s with prem experience, plus the height/physical is clearly a priority for us. We don’t get many wrong, just felt there was an opportunity to bring in someone who knows the role and younger, but who knows, maybe over time berge will evolve into a star, just not sure it’ll be as the defensive mid role hes playing now." on Sunday, October 20, 12:22:01pm
