They play drastically different positions. Why not both?
Most similar doesn't mean ''as good''. I just don't see the point to buy in a bunch of forwards, if most of them wont ever play. We till have Delufeu, Adama, Sando, Munir and Halilovic, who need to be probed if they can walk the walk and still unknown what will be with Pedro. Why steal another exciting player from small team just to put him on bench? Because muh galacticos? OT's profile just fits a role of a player that we're currently lacking, especially after Xavi will go. And he does seem better than Xavi at this age. Granted i only watched 2 or 3 matches from Porto this season, but he was bossing the game with a lot of key passes and very good xaviesque movement, never panicking under the pressure and always making the right decisions.
I'm just tired of this '' wawawa another rising star, we should get him lel'' instead of focusing on areas that need improvement.
