All this Grujic is making me itch

[Hansern]

If we don't land Keita I reckon we still need to add some bite in midfield.

I've got a good feeling about Grujic. If he can keep himself fit it's going to be a good year for him.

If we sign Keita, I'm not sure he'll get many games.

Can, Hendo, Wijnaldum, Keita, Grujic, Coutinho, Lallana

That's 7 players for three midfield spots.

If we sign Keita he'll be first name on the teamsheet in midfield.

I was referring to Grujic.

Oh, right. Then yeah, he'll never play.

I saw on Twitter the other day a perfect description of the impact grujic will probably have for us

Nah, Gruijc has talent. I think he can become a good player for us. I also like the fact that he's 6"3.
We're a team of shortarses and need some muscle and height.

 

[Judge Jules]

Agreed. He'll have to earn his appearances, of course, but (as long as he proves capable of doing that) we'll have the CL to cover as well as a full domestic schedule.

I'm not so sure, neither Coutinho and Lallana are CMs and just as likely to play ahead of the midfield 3 while Henderson is never consistently fit. Grujic is essentially competing with Can, Wjinaldum, Milner and potentially Keita. With CL football this season I think we have room in the squad although it's arguable that he would be better served going out on loan to a Premship or SPL side thatvwould give him games.
