Anybody agree with me that Bournemouths Billing is some player ?

Also noted him at Huddersfield.

I reckon he'd be a useful squad player- has played in various positions

Good player but personally i'd love to see a good defensive midfielder come in instead of a CM someone like a young Kante i know billing can play that position but i'd prefer someone that plays that role all the time.

Yeah I'll take him. Strong, big, technically adept, 6ft 5 and can play box-to-box/defensive mid/attacking mid so could be useful. Potential shelvey/longstaff replacement?

Also a fan of him, think he's decent mid table ready premier league player. We've been linked to him in the past. With his experience/pedigree I think the cost will be prohibitive of his ability at this time. Will improve us in depth, but not in overall quality. We definitely need depth, but I'd expect us to look at different avenues.

Agree he’s a decent enough player but imo doesn’t improve on what we have, so it’d be a no from me. We’re in a position where quality needs to come in, not bodies. He’s no improvement on most of our current midfielders (don’t forget Shelvey is now back in the frame too and has improved massively under Howe). I’d rather use a squad place on a position where we need more strength and depth (e.g. left wing / right wing).

I'd always have had him in pre-takeover, but at this stage we need to looking at better.

Think this winter window is going to be an interesting one.

Can see our priority still being perhaps the right hand side of the pitch, Rcb (to compete with Schar) Rb (to push Trippier) and a RW (to compete with Miggy)

After that perhaps another body in Centre mid
I'll Hazard a guess
