i'm not fully familiar with him, just based on the few times i saw him i think that hjulmand's asking price is ridiculously high. not a single stat (@comolli) warrants neither the price or even our interest. he's an accurate passer, but so is locatelli, so what. and that's all. tackles around 2 per 90 minutes doesn't even put him in the upper tercile of midfielders, and he's supposed to be a 50m defensive midfielder.

just for context, vidal averaged ~5 tackles per matches in his prime. locatelli averages 2.55 tackles per 90, hjulmand is at 2.2, and in a weaker league at that too...
vidal's tackles per matches in the last column. per90 stats are unavailable at whoscored, and fbref doesn't have detailed info for vidal's juve years.

(on this site, top5 league players are compared to top5 league players. hjulmand is compared to "next 14 competitions" players.)

There is no player like Vidal ever. His years at Juventus and Bayern (First two seasons under pep) he was unstoppable. One of the most complete midfileders i've ever seen play football.
Possibly was the best player in the world for at least some short amount of time in his absolute peak. 20 goals and the defensive work of 2 players..

So Kolo comes if Vlaho leaves, but no one wants him. Douglas will be sold. Weah will sold if OM raises his offer or Weah accepts another club. pretty straigthforward communication.

Is Grealish rated around these parts?

Napoli are in the running for him. He’s likely out of JJs $$ range anyway, and there are no links.

Doesn’t have the attitude problems of Sancho. Solid player too, although definitely not as good as the English media will have you believe.
