Adrien Rabiot (120 Viewers)

[icemaη]

WTF are you rambling on about? Just because this turd has decided to put in a shift (knowing it's a WC year and his contract is up - double the motivation to do well, so he can earn another big fat paycheck he doesn't deserve) doesn't mean all is forgiven or forgotten.

A couple of months of solid performances doesn't negate or absolve THREE FUCKING YEARS of ABSOLUTE SHITFUCKERY! We've sold much better players before, so what's the big deal?

We still have Loca, Pogba (returning from injury), Fagioli (developing very nicely), Parepiss (who can still perform if he feels like it), and even McNuggets.

Do you truly believe Fagiot is the difference between a top 4 finish and missing out on a CL spot? Absolutely not, at least not in my book.

And no, he shouldn't be renewed at the current salary or even 2 million less (he hasn't earned it) - that's a fucking ludicrous proposition.

Who’s asking you to forgive or forget?
All of them bar Fagioli have been significantly worse than Rabiot. And yet, you want them to play instead of the guy who’s actually playing well for a change. We don’t even know when Pogba’s coming back. And if the United Pogba turns up, boy do I have some news for you. A Rabiot sale for 10-15m makes absolutely no sense in January. Will he continue his form? God knows. But I’ll rather have my money on him continuing his form than McKennie suddenly learning how to pass or Pogba staying fit or Paredes (who earns more btw and plays a completely different role) suddenly consistently showing up

My point still stands though - he's gone, whether it's January or June. Do you think he makes the difference between a top 4 finish and missing out on the CL spots? I don't think so.

Forget about the title - we have a very slim chance of winning it anyway, and it's really Napoli's to lose.

So the question becomes, do we keep Fagiot to finish top 4 and lose out on, potentially, 20 million, or do we sell?

I don't think he deserves a renewal (we should learn from mistakes of the past), and even if some of you are so willing and obliging, there's no way he's going to accept a reduction in salary (and there's no way in hell we should renew at 5 million, let alone 7 million a year).

By June, Fagiot, McNuggets and Parepiss should all be gone, that's if we are a serious and ambitious club.

How is there a conversation about selling Rabiot in January?

He has been our best player this season, as weird as that is to say, even if not by much. If we lose him we set ourselves to struggle more than necessary. It's not like we have an abundance of points.

He will be gone in the summer anyway.

 

[Mike-e-y]

This season he is finally starting to play, shame he didn’t bother in the other 3. The talk of selling is probably so we can get some money for him but personally I’d rather sell McCrappy and let Tabiot leave in the summer when Rovella returns

I prefer the money over keeping him, although I can’t deny that he’s performing great lately. I consider Pogba as a better player anyway so I’d bench Rabiot if Pogba stays fit (which I expect tbh).

Pogba hasn't been consistently good or fit for years and we are in a tight race in Serie A for CL spots.

He is a risk we won't know if we can rely on immediately.

We are Juve. Making some money in January by sacrificing points is more of a Napoli/Roma move. There is McKennie to sell.

Nah disagree. Yes, Pogba isn’t fit and maybe it’s naive to think he’d play for the remaining season. But the money is a important factor aswel, we might be able to replace Rabiot with the money we potentially get from a sell.

He won’t be leaving in January cause he will get more money and a better sign on bonus in June. He’s having a decent season now, cause he’s motivated to get a fat paycheck.
The guy hast all the natural talent and physical skill set to be a wc player, he’s just a sissy without a work ethic and that will never change.

He‘ll be back to his regular form once he signed a contract. We should avoid at all cost and just hope to get another good 6 months from him as a compensation for 3 years of being shit and payed like a wc player

The fuck are we going to do with this superstar? I've always said he's our most talented midfielder(now after Pogba). Clearly he's also one of those guys who plays motivated when its a contract year.

 

[Hust]

He is one of the few players on this team that is almost never injured, can play a full match and doesn't loose his physicality.

At 27, he is in his prime years (neither old nor young). See if we can offer him a little less than what he wants and get another 3-4 years out of him in rotation.

Seems to have been a good soldier to this point, and his performances are finally getting better and actually remaining consistent. You can say he is doing good b/c its a contract year but all players probably try harder under those circumstances...but despite a shitty season start for this club, he is one of the few bright spots so far.

To be fair, this "motivated by money" is a weak argument to me. All players are motivated like that so happy to hear arguments contrary to that. Fire away.

 

[zizinho]

Still sell if we can, better than losing for nothing in the summer. We have enough options

Pogba Locatelli Fagioli
Miretti Paredes McK

 

[duranfj]

I'm so glad with his current level. He's showing everyone he's a really WC level player, hopefully he can have a good WC and our management move their asses and sell him without any hesitation in January

Even if he is able to maintain his current form through the World Cup to May I don't see why he would entertain a Jj offer. It would be used as leverage against other club offers imo. There is little evidence of him being a regular standout in the prior 2 seasons at Jj.

Jj needs to #LiveAhead

There aren't contrary arguments to "money motivated" because it is only solid and reasonable explanation of his current form.
The truth of nobody been willing to pay his demanding salary this summer hit him hard. He realised that some performance must be shown if he wants fatter pay check.
He was on lazy cruise mode for three years only difference this season is his next contract is coming up.

Practically This.

Like I said, 10m is too much, if he wants that or more than that he needs to be sold. Not buts or ifs

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Let's face it, he's not gonna take a wage cut. And based on his time here certainly doesn't deserve an increase or even an extension with current wages. Half a season of good form doesn't change that.

So he's gotta go. Au revoir maman's boy!

What about a full season of good form?

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Make him one of our highest paid players for having one good season out of a four year contract?

In a season where the team as a whole has failed so miserably nobody deserves a pay increase.

We also have too many players in midfield and need to offload some, he'd be an easy choice. Make room for our young talents: Miretti and Ravioli (Rovella + Fagioli).

Nah, he could piss right off. I didn't forget his shit attitude over the last 3.5 years.
