what will Sissoko add to the team?

Could Sissoko in a midfield with Lo Celso and Winks/Ndombele change the way we play?

Not going to add much is he? Hardly a world beater. We were s** in defence even with Sissoko in the team. The 2 players we are truly missing are Son and Kane. They get back, we can score goals at least. Anyway, season is over, so doesn’t really matter.,

anything less than a win at United and that's it for me. we should just play the kids till end of season. Parrot, Tanganga, Walcott.

Sissoko will massively add to our midfield, better than both Winks and Ndombele combined. He has been a big miss.

Prem bosses I suspect will suspend league anyway.

Sissoko will add the steel that Winks lacks in midfield. Winks is just too damned weak.
As for NDombele...I don't know what goes on with this guy and Mourinho. NDombele is a better player IMHO than some on here think. Never lost the ball last time out.
I think a midfield of Lo Cleso, NDombele, Sissoko and Another (dunno who) could provide the strength needed. Back four is too exposed ATM with Winks on the pitch.

Now, as to Sissoko's finishing, who cares...at least the ball will be in their half and not ours!
Lucas is tasked to do the scoring and Alli (??).
Anyways...ManU roll on!
Can't get any worse, can it?

Fair play to him he improved massively last season and adds a bit of power for sure. Cant forget he hides on the pitch and is truly awful on the ball. Of course we know all the factors but it's no coincidence spurs have declined since he has been a regular feature in the side.

Ndombele looked a lot more up for it playing along side sissoko though because of their bond. Hes the closest thing weve got to an energetic DM but Jose will play him in a 2 with Winks or RM to cover Aurier

I think a midfield with Sissoko in it will suit Mourinho's tactics better than a midfield with Winks at the base.

Thing is it'll also mean he leaves out both Winks AND Ndombele, so there'll be literally no technical ability in midfield and hoofball will be the only option.

I think there's some promise in a midfield 3 of Sissoko - Ndombele - Lo Celso (though I think Winks would be a more progressive option under a more progressive coach), but even so it'll never happen since Mourinho hates 433 nowadays, and obviously he hates Ndombele even more

Nothing... He's crap. Did you see the way we played through all of 2019 with him a regular starter. Being the best player in a team full of shlt doesn't make you a good player. It just means you're not as shlt as the next guy

Been a huge loss. Only player who can tackle in our current midfield. Not only that he will win you second balls which we barely win these days.
Not the best footballer in the world but adds the steel we have been missing..Cant wait to have him back in the team.
