Defensive efficiency and sturdiness are not prominent within his skill set, so his purchase would still leave us vulnerable to any significant period of time without the services of Partey, and given the awareness that for occasional games filling that position then Elneny is quite capable, to push beyond that is tantamount to expecting a top of the range Ford Mondeo to be almost as good as an Aston Martin Vantage.
So to that end then, if we're genuinely looking for just another body to improve our central midfield quota without them possessing really good defensive qualities also, I'm left with a slightly nagging impression that the Dewsbury-Hall fella ought to be the Leicester player we're interested in.

I think he'll bank on Elneny, Xhaka or Sambi to cover.
Saw a clip on Twitter where we he spoke on the other two midfield roles. Despite having different attributes, he wants them to try and score goals. I think Vieira will play that Xhaka role we saw over the weekend once fit.

I saw the interview.
That to me would be like a 4-3-3 with the central CM (Partey) being the anchor.
