Yes, it does, but the second link is pretty much the same position, just named "attacking midfielder" on the site, even though there was still just 1 more player more advanced than him. Combined, the 2 give a decent return of the player in that position, but too few matches to say for sure that he can keep up or improve. He just played like 9 matches there in the last year.

In conclusion, I think that ASM can play well as right wing (though he's right footed and would not cut inside to let the right back advance and cross) and can also cover as second striker and left wing.

But Ismaila Sarr can play equally well on both sides of the pitch and cover with great results as center forward and second striker, so that's 4 positions he knows very well.

Plus that I've seen him in the Europe League matches and he looks very fit and tall and slim and ready to run back and help, while ASM looks a bit too bulk, kind of like Adama Traore, with good sprints for short distances, but lack of coming back in defence, more like a skilled player than a useful one.

Sarr also has the numbers on his side. At a similar price, the better choice would be Ismaila Sarr.

Though I think there are similar players at a better price than even Sarr.

Supposedly competing with Watford for his signature as a replacement for Wilf. An exciting option, only 21 and another tricky winger with flair and pace, and you’d have to argue a better option than Alan saint maxim.

Very, very late in the window though due to some choice operations by parish and co. Don’t know what’s going on behind the scenes but chances of getting this fella, Chalov and a replacement rb in by 5pm look slim. Danny Simpson it is.

Sarr would be a great buy.
Club want £27mill. Watford want to pay £20mill.

Would we pay £27mill?

If Zaha really is off to Everton, we could afford to be realistic bidders maybe £25m?
