Would prefer Coutinho over this as a loan move. He is very inconsistent and goes invisible in games.
If we can’t sign anyone else a one year loan for a highly talented but inconsistent player isn’t the worst idea in the world.
Different type of players but yeah, I see your point.Or just play Özil from time to time, seeing as the club will be paying his wages till next year anyway.
in fairness I know Aouar is mainly a CM but he's played a lot as a LM for Lyon. I could see Aouar playing on the left in a 343 if we ever use that formation again and coming inside a lot.
Martinez
AMN - Saliba - Luiz - Gabriel - Tierney
Ceballos - Xhaka
Pepe - Auba - Aouar

Anderson at least has physical attributes that could turn a game on his head even if he doesn’t play particularly well. Özil has to play excellently because his pace/agility seem to have abandoned him.
I haven't watched that much of him but he's a player that plays in between lines, no?
If we're looking for a cheap short-term fix there in terms of creative players that play in between lines it's not the most absurd idea in the world.

I'm not a west ham fan so I can only base it on what I read and alot out there saying he basically played like a full back for west ham last season. his last season stats are an anomaly overall if you look back over the last 5 years. a very productive player for west ham and lazio.Only issue that was the season before last, when he had a great debut season. Do you know what his stats were last season?
The guy has bags of natural ability, it is just the consistency that is missing.
