Filip Kostic - LWB/LM/LW - Eintracht Frankfurt (12 Viewers)

[Alin]

Kostic is decent player with good cross but knowing how Allegri setup his team it is likely to happen lol

Wasn’t Allegri the mastermind before the Crossventus style ? That’s a very contradictory things to say from your part…. I think if it’s anyone in the squad that will fit in well with his tactics and ideas Kostic will sure be one of them.

From fucking Radnicki Kragujevac to Juventus. Nothing but respect.

good signing. now we have a left flank instead of a left blank.

 

[Alin]

The only ones that could cause Kostic to fail at what he does best is Vlahovic and whoever else will be at the end of the crosses, because he will surely set them up well but it also requires others to bring in their shooting boots and Vlahovic to perhaps work more on his heading ability and not be as wasteful.

All in all plenty of positives and way less negatives, the fact he is at this moment the only player(that is not a classic LB) able to naturally play on the left side of the pitch is already an added plus.

Good and weird signing at the same time. But considering our transfers over the past I'd say it's a good move. Not too expensive and probably low-ish wages.

How long will it take for people to start to complain that the most frequent crosser in European football crosses too much?

Watched him a lot for Frankfurt, not quite sure where he would fit in a 4-3-3 if we keep it. He’s best suited for a 3-5-2 or 4-4-2. I hope he keeps his Frankfurt form and not turn back to his Hamburg days

They actually managed to bring in a good player this transfer window, and improve a position. Finally.

 

[Gep]

Good signing.

Finally a player who can play on the left and won’t embarrass himself. Certainly not a world beater, but a hard-running, determined player at the peak of his career with a wand of a left foot. Look forward to his assists.

Now just to find a LB, ST and CM before the season starts.

Chances are higher that instead of crosses he'll start back passing.

In other words people will actually watch him play and see what kind of player he actually is.

We pretty much always defend with a 4-4-2 so he'd play in that hybrid LW/LM role. Don't think it's much different compared to the role he has played at Frankfurt.

Vlahovic - Di Maria
Kostic - Pogba - Loca - Weston
Sandro - Bremer - Bonucci - Danilo

Don't know about others but I think he's a good player. What I find weird here is that it seems we don't know which formation we'll be using. Kostic is not a player for 4-3-3 that's for sure. Then again, we wouldn't be buying Chiesa and Di Maria if we didn't plan on using wider wingers imo. So I wonder how will this turn out, especially when Chiesa returns.

Pinging in crosses in Bundesliga and EL is one thing, think we need to accept those numbers won't be the same here.

Based on pre-season we'll use more or less the same formation as we did last season to start this season. Just flipped, so instead of Rabiot playing as a LCM/LM we'll have Weston/Zakaria as RCM/RM and then a proper winger on the left. Di Maria plays the free role in attack and then when we lose the ball he slowly jogs back to the right wing so Weston/Zakaria can move inside a bit.

True. However Candreva for example has done it for years in this league.

Pleased we're finally making moves again and this one was much needed. A versatile and hard working player is always appreciated especially considering how injury prone our squad is.

It was but it was when he had Mandzu or CR7. He doesn't have any gameplan these days except sitting back

I guess we’ll have to wait and see about that… mercatto is also still open and in many cases with only a couple of good players that are available at the right times(which is our main worry here given the constant injuries) and actually fit the system and tactics is all you need to start making considerable progress and bring home results.

 

[Luftwaffles]

An excellent signing

 

[Paolino]

so he will take our Free kicks?
