Replacing Modric is near impossible but I think he’s already better than Camavinga at Real Madrid and any player City or Arsenal have in that specific position. He’s a perfect player in midfield to dictate the game & be a perfect foil for the likes of Bellingham, Rodri and Rice to have more freedom to get forward. Top top player and hopefully he’ll move again soon to keep the lights on for us for another 6 months with the sell on fee! Edited 16 hours ago by DuffsLeftPeg 3 Quote

Tugayisgod Posted 16 hours ago Posted 16 hours ago Liverpool target Wharton New 11 minutes ago Exclusive By Alan Nixon Liverpool are ready to try to tempt Adam Wharton to quit Crystal Palace in a £50 million plus swoop. The Kop transfer team are focusing on the outstanding midfield talent whose passing could make Arne Slot’s team tick. Wharton has established himself as a Premier League player of real promise since his move from Blackburn Rovers. And Wharton’s ability to see the picture and deliver quick balls to attackers has marked him out as a future elite star. Liverpool are keen to land him and Wharton could be interested in a return to his native north west. However the snag will be whether Wharton gets enough game time to keep him on an upward path. Wharton has been frustrated by injuries this season and that has restricted his appearances in a campaign that should have seen him take off for club and country. If Liverpool can sell a plan to him, especially with Champions League football available, then Wharton may take the chance. Palace are already facing a siege for their players this summer and will demand a huge fee for the Dougie Freedman discovery. Blackburn are due 15 per cent of the profit over the £18 million Palace paid for their home grown hero in January 2024. Bayern Munich and Real Madrid are also admirers of Wharton but he has not played often enough this season to make those interests concrete. Quote

Discovery is not the right word but Freedman moved when the opportunity came up and others didn't. From Palace's point of view Adam was a Freedman discovery 1 Quote

Tyrone Shoelaces Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago (edited) It’s his ability to spot an opening coming and deliver the perfectly weighted pass into it that sets him apart from any other player in the Prem at the moment. He sees opportunities before the defenders have realised the opening is coming. Then he plays that instant killer ball. It must be great playing in front of him because you know you’re going to get the ball exactly where you want it and when you want it. That was obvious in his time at Rovers to anyone with eyes that aren’t painted on. Modric is/was a World class player but if anyone can come close to filling his boots it’s Wharton.

I wouldn't agree at all with that. People didn't rate Ayari here now less than 12 months on he is starting games at Brighton Quote
jim mk2 Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago Manchester City would be the perfect move for Wharton. Guardiola’s precision pass and move game is made for him, though he would have to work a lot harder than he does at present. Pep is a fan and City will be busy in the transfer market this summer so it could happen sooner rather than later 6 Quote

DeeCee Posted 13 hours ago Posted 13 hours ago It doesn't matter which team he plays for, I still consider him "one of us". Very few Rovers players I have that fondness and respect for once they've left. 4 Quote

47er Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago Made the first goal and would have made the second if the penalty hadn't been missed. What an exquisite pass that was. 1 Quote
roverandout Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago I've said before an England midfield of Wharton Bellingham and rice would be the most complete midfield in international football. There's a case for rodri pedri and olmo but in terms of having everything u want in a midfield, that midfield would be perfect 2 Quote
