after the last couple of league and nt games. too bad half of the oil clubs seem to be after him. forza bini
Be honest, have you seen this kid play even 5 minutes?
This goes out to anyone else who will get overly excited just because others are or based on reputation. With DanielZ we know he has Woody Allen like addiction to youth so he gets a pass
I rate the kid (he is better then Camavinga but less hyped), and its exactly kind of signing we should make. But I much rather have Pogba on all relevant factors except their huge salary difference. He is just guranteed top quality upgrade in multiple facets for our midfield. And the B2B we need. Neither this kid or Loca are attacking CMs or B2B types. More all around holding mids.
I dont get hung up on potential or age. We don't really have desperate need for more youth in our midifeld, just pure quality. Because because the Ramsey who is months away from leaving, the oldest is Rabiot who is 25.
Only section we need to get younger is the defence. Their average age is like 31/32 back there.

What's your midfield for next season?
Ramsey and Mckennie should leave, and if Rovella and Tchouameni/Pogba come, then we need to sell more if you want Fagioli/Ranocchia back. And that's only the young ones, if you want another established player then even more sales (I'd sell Rabiot and Arthur too, but it's unlikely we sell so much). To me it looks like we won't be doing a lot in midfield but I hope I'm wrong.

out: Rabiot, McKennie, Ramsey
in: Tchouameni, Rovella, Fagioli
I think Ranocchia is behind Fagioli development wise, so he should probably get loaned out again to a serie A side next season.

LCM: Loca, Arthur
CM: Rovella, Fagioli
RCM: Tchouameni, Bentancur
can alternate between a three man mid and a double pivot with Loca and Tchouameni

who knows, but they are actively trying to get younger so it would fall in line. It’s why I don’t really buy links to anyone hovering around 30. They’re building a new cycle, so guys like Tchouameni and Vlahovic make sense. Let em all grow together. Not much different than when Pogba and Vidal broke out together.
Agree and I'd like to see it happen, I just think it will happen slower, like if we get Rovella now, we won't get Fagioli too, but rather a year later. Then Ranocchia if he's good. Also, it seems Allegri rates Rabiot, so maybe he remains and that's another less spot for these young guys. It's early and hard to predict tho so let's see, hopefully you're right
