Everyone seems to want to buy a Midfielder that can do everything and fix all our problem by themselves.
Firstly, lets build a team, form a tactics, how coach wants to play, how many of our existing players able to play that to a certain standard required. Then we have a fundamental understanding and we can go and buy a certain profile of players that meet what we need.
We dont need names rather the profile is much more important. We fans seems to be fixed on names rather than the profile these days. Football is a TEAM sport, we need every players to be part of the team and help each other out, bring the best of others, compliment others and do what you best at and lets other do what they best at. So we dont need to buy the best MF that going to do everything on their own rather what they best at and what they can compliment the rest of that.
We have Mainoo as the focal point for now, and if we dont sell Bruno and we nned to buy MF that strong, athletics, fast, cover vast areas and just tecnically sound if enough. That is the profile of players that we should target.
It is difficult for the team to pass and maintain possession as it stands, so "technically sound if enough" won't cut it. And adding a CM whose passing statistics are on par with Rashford won't help either. We need midfield metronomes capable of controlling a game and passing at a high level, and Amadou won't fulfill that role.
