Nico Williams

[HanDW]

Leao when he gets going with his dribbling, pace and physicality is like a freight train you cannot stop.
Noticed Milan have been playing him more as a striker also lately?

Yes, he's been playing more of an off the ball inside forward role the last few games, scored a beautiful chip the other day.

Leao is levels above Nico.

Leao destroyed Vardrid away.

I never seen Nico doing anything close to it against weaker oponents.

Concidering saleries and realaese clause Leao looks cheaper then Nico.

 

[Haraldinho]

Leao is lazy. We need a guy like Pedro back then (not lazy and score goals). We have enough players doing tricks and useless turns.

17 - Rafael #Leão scored 17 goals in all-comps in 2024: his record in a single calendar year since playing for #ACMilan. Furthermore, these 17 goals all came from open play and no #SerieA player did better in the period (also Ademola Lookman 17).

BRUTAL stinker and hooked at minute 61 while Bilbao are getting dogged.

Subbed off.

We're still buying him. Flick doesn't watch opponents and neither does Laporta. We are buying him based on few matches on EC and because he has palm tree on his head.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

I do like the idea of Yamal and Williams. Those two like each other. They would cook together. Let's do it.

 

[vuji_31]

This gut never showed much in LL.

He played decent games in Euro, but that is it.

60mil plus salary higher then 12mil is not what we should do.

But, I need to say I belive we will get him. He is still young, but for the price I would not buy him.

It's going to be Rafael Leao.

Or Luis Diaz if Deco gets his will.

 

[DonAK]

Players as talented as Lamine Yamal will cook with any forward. I don't think Nico being his friend should matter when he's playing this season like he's got no confidence and honestly stinking it up. After the Griezmann shitshow it would also set a good example to players that it's now or never........unless you're that guy and Nico hasn't proven to be him.

And I'm saying that as someone who likes Nico Williams.

I mean, concidering Laportas connection with Jorge Mendes, we will go for Leao, if he wants to leave.

Diaz is good but he is already 27, he will not improve much.
Leao is crazy head, but on his days he is unstoppable.
Nico, youngest, could improve a lot, but his transfer seems like most expensive.

Doubt Liverpool will want something like 50mil for Diaz, because I would not offer more concidering age and contract length.

When you put everything on papper, if Flick can put in order Leao, concidering his age, talent, celling it makes most sense.
