Luiz is a good player. And when on form can do a job at defensive midfield.

He’s pretty decent on the ball so moving him forward to impact the game in the attacking areas would be an improvement if we can get a more natural DM in.

He is the nearest we have but Smith is not convinced.

Because Nakamba can't pass a ball. Get a proper DM in and let McGinn and Luiz play in more progressive positions.

We need a Hojberg in that position.  I thought he ran the midfield for them on Sunday.

Christian Erikson - seemingly unhappy at Inter

Not any more. He's become one of the first names on their team sheet and will probably end up winning the league with them. He's also on over £200k a week. There's no chance of him coming here unfortunately.

I mentioned it in the match thread midway through the second half - he was brilliant for them. Not glamorous, but did a really solid job of breaking things up and not giving our midfield time to string three passes together.  Would love someone like him in the side.

he's been doing that for most of the season for them. A very understated and effective player.
