Djalo got walked past

The holy grail of pace merchants :tuttosport:

I don't know man. I think he has a lot of quality. The problem is the athleticism is below average. He is a bit like Kulu where you see some excellent skill and tricky box play but the general game is very unexplosive for a winger. I'm very torn though. Some of his dribbling and passing is so good.

Sounds like he was a CB playing LB

"We have califiori at home"

We will though eventually instead of 10m net dybala or whatever he wanted

Dybala was the sacrificial lamb. Now scum agents know we're for real. They will come back to the table and re-sign.

Kadioglu certainly caught my eye and would be a great option. He's probably valued at least 40m. And in that case they have to add another 40m to get Mckennie.

Imagine if Davies wasn't stuck in defence all match. I don't understand why he can't play LM

But also if Califiori is not the next Chiellini and is the next Caldara, we'll get stuck with him because Italians need abcdefg reasons to move abroad whereas Koop would go abroad willingly. I just think theoretically I would always take the cm with 20 goal contributions. The ancillary benefits...

His price is rising over that of Bremer now. He was serie a defender of the year and bought from a rival. I don't know if Koop can reach the same output away from Atalanta but if you gave me the choice between those stats from a CM or Califiori for 50m, I would pick the CM.

Douglas Costa :tuttosport:

He was our RW most matches

Didn't realize he was that expensive but then again why am I surprised

There's obviously a million things up in the air for signings. This is probably a case of taking whatever money we can right away to fund the rest of the team. There's no question his value will double next year if he hits double digit goals
