Agree with this but also see what he is saying. And we're worse at defending with Kelly playing and this modern style of fast defenders who play the ball than we ever were with actual defenders, even moderate ones like Rugani.

Even weirder they had an Italian coach.

Personally I'd have kept him to be cautious, but I can see why he was loaned. We had Bremer, Kalulu and Gatti, who are established central defenders. We had Cabal who is essentially a DLC. And Danilo as a 5th option if needed. Bremer and Cabal injuries later and we need someone. Selling Danilo...

Add a 50% sell on clause.

How much is a few drinks? I'll drive after one beer but nothing more. Think it's more common in America (and Italy, in my experience) than here.

That's like €50 to him. Surely this is the same as playing under Allegri? Sentence already served.

I feel like this would be a normal take a couple of years ago but Rugani has been solid and even decisive when called upon more recently. For 1.5m+bonuses or whatever it is I'm not too concerned. Why does the bench have to be all cheap, young players? Surely young players need to play. There's...

Could have had another Nesta with the personality of Chiellini but for Allegri ruining him.

It's difficult to find good 5th choice defenders who will stay for multiple seasons. And it's no surprise if they come in after 15 rounds and make a mistake, players need continuity. He might end up like fricking Barzagli for all we know if he played every game. But seriously, the thing that...

He's passive and timid, that's what hurt his career. Technically he's fine. Maybe if he was a golfer or snooker player he could have been a champion.

Seemed like an obvious tactical sub to me as we needed a goal desperately. De Ligt and Danilo both being better than Rugani, but also more mobile to cover the spaces left.

Would you rather De Ligt or Danilo were subbed? Sorry, you think he was subbed because of the mistake lol?

He was doing well and then he Ruganid.

Maybe Mihajlovic can make him a bit tougher.

Apparently he is going to Torino on loan for the second half of the season.

He's always so passive.

The bit when they get to Magnusson always cracks me up.

They were being quoted £40m for Tarkowski. Set the price at £25m for il nuovo Scirea.

New'astle are getting beaten by Newport County at the moment, they are definitely going to knee-jerk a signing or two even before this. £18m should do it for this prime Italy international.
