And there wasn't thinking this thread was meant to be about Filip Krovinovic...


Speaking of which where do we envisage Filip playing in SBs preferred formation?

If that's 4-3-3 then centrally as the most advance member of the midfield 3.

In his most successful WHU season he played 2 versions of 4-5-1.


1st was flat 5 across midfield with wingers, 1 central defensive midfielder and a lone striker. 2nd was 2 holding midfielders, 3 narrow advanced midfielders and a lone striker.

Like our most successful teams of recent years then under Roy (and a bit Clarke)

Krovinovic is an advanced play maker in a 4-3-3, Billic's most frequent formation at West Ham was 4-3-3. I am guessing that we are playing 4-3-3 and Krovinovic will be the advanced play maker. If by chance we don't land him we will pursue a similar player. I suspect Harper will be the back up option here.

West Brom schedule a medical for Filip Krovinovic, with the player finally close to completing a loan move to join the Baggies

Fingers crossed!

Feel generally positive about this one. Quick look at a Benfica forum though (poorly translated through google) and it is mixed reviews, some feel he was great when they started and just needs a good run of games to get back there. Others feel that when he had his injury he couldn't be bothered much and a number of them talk about women and wine. Ill remain optimistic though but reserve judgement until he has a couple of games under his belt

he'll be hard pressed to find either of those to his taste in West Brom

Good signing that. I was doubtful we'd get it over the line, but if this is the calibre of player we're looking to bring in then that can only be a good thing.

Do we know if we have an option to buy on this, if he does end up doing well it would be nice to already have something in place.

I'm hopeful that Billic and Croatian staff will give him good support, but ultimately it will be down to him. You'd hope he is able to do a similar job to Barnes, but I'm really waiting to see how strong he is physically on the ball, because you get knocked about a bit in the Championship.

Seen a pic and looks like he’s number 7, hopefully that means Morrison is gone for good

He can just do a Grealish and fall over every time someone gets within a yard of him.

Let's hope he's a success here because he's exactly the type of player we've been badly missing.

Portuguese twitter say he was very good prior to injury, so hopefully he can find his way back to that old promise. Glad we gave the 1st signing over the line.
