Pinsoglio really looks uncomfortable on the ball

God. Locatelli makes so many mistakes. Imagine him against quality opposition. Scary. I like some of the build up play. I think we need to work on that cutting edge in the final third. I worry about our defence - a couple of occasions we could have been punished by a quality team.

Hard to criticize his team selection today when he only has 12-13 players to choose from.

So new tests in 10 days to define the prognosis? Doesn't sound great. Could be out for a while.

I'm not surprised given that the whole squad was originally built on that formation. That should, at least in theory, change once we finalize the mercato but so far its looky pretty sketchy.

Thanks

So this game will be on youtube right?

Luckily its only 30min per half. LOL

Bloody hell - so our attacking mids - Miretti and Adzic both injured. Need to rely on either Loca or Fagioli in that role now. Aish. This squad will suffer with an injury crisis with all the games we are to play this year. I am quite worried about our mercato now.

Yep. With the squad so far, I figure the starting 11 is likely to be: Di Gregorio, Gatti, Danilo, Bremer, Cambiaso, Luiz, Thuram, Locatelli/Fagioli, Weah, Yildiz, Vlahovic. Cabal is the only real sub for the defence outside of next gen, One of Loca/Fagioli plus Adzic (who I think is the...

In principle, I am in favor of revolutionising the squad - completely especially as you build the team around a coach you have faith in. I would have focussed on making sure Motta has 70-80% of what he needs to do well in this window and then continue to modfiy it over the next few windows...

I was thinking the exact same thing. We are so screwed if he gets injured. Milik is also not wanted and I don’t see us spending a lot for a good vice Vlahovic if we spend big on Koop.

As I have said many times, I think the management is trying to do too much in this transfer market. Buying and selling that many players puts you in a huge disadvantage from a valuation standpoint. To be fair, I am fine with most of the signings so far. But I works have kept one of Soule and...

Maybe SES is a rotational player to substitute Milik who can also play wide. Maybe it could be 45m+ Milk for Koop Roma offers 15m + SES for Chiesa McKennie + 15m for Nico Gonzales Djalo + 25m for Galeno Caviglia and Facundo Gonzales money (6.5m in total) to pay loan fee for Todibo

What is the deal? No new news on this for some time. I’m hearing more that Nice only wants an outright sale and not considering a loan + option/obligation

What is the deal with Todibo? I’m hearing conflicting reports about whether Nice is willing to accept a loan +option/obligation. I feel that if this loan deal happens, Koop can then follow. I feel that is key.

I know close to zero about this guy. Stats wise he is not as impressive as players like Sancho, Adeyemi, Nico Gonzalez etc. That doesn’t mean he is a bad player as stats can be misleading for a variety of reasons. Anyone seen this guy much? I doubt anyone here truly knows as much as our scouts.

In the end, I kind of blame his agent. He is incentivised to maximise his salary in the short term. Given his performances, if he accepted 4-4.5m rather then the 5m a gets now and did an extension, it would have been good for all parties involved….. but they wanted 7m + when they heard how...

If only he had the instinct to make a decision.
