I bet you've never even seen him play. I think he's absolutely not what we need, but he's not bad at all.
Correct, he is not what we need unless we sell Pogba, then he would be a good replacement (not Pogba level, but still).
But he indeed isn't bad.
Have him cripple our enemies
Stop living in the past.
FFS, the guy was 19 and it has been 7 years or something like that.

I think he still got it. Too bad Roma game is too soon. Sound of Nainggolan bones breaking :tuttosport: but start with pjanic, so incase nainggolan wins the battle we'll already have somebody out

I've seen him play.

He can be a waterboy here and polish Pereyra's balls.
Oh okay. You just know nothing about football. That's okay too. You're going on my ignore list, so we don't have to talk to each other again. That's best for all parties involved.

Why am I not surprised that the only people "defending" this potential signing are a couple of Belgians, Nik and Velma? :shifty: :numnum:
I'm not defending this signing at all. I think he's a decent player, but he does not have the right characteristics. I'd be disappointed if we bought him. But you didn't bother to read. That's shameful.

That is why I have the defending in quotation marks you doofus :p

He is definitely not what we need, and I don't really rate him, but I wonder why Zach despises his fellow brethren so much.

Because Zach, as an Anderlecht fan, is completely delusional about a foul Witsel committed 7 years ago.

Ah, so he hates him because of that one horror tackle? It is rather extreme, even if that foul was incredibly distasteful. What about that Tielemaans kid? I heard so many good things about him, so perhaps we should look into it.

Anderlecht :inter:
Always despised them.
I hate you from now on.

Tielemans has the potential to become a world class player, but he still needs to prove a lot and be consistent in his performances, I think he has to stay at Anderlecht for at least one or two more seasons.

People only see the consequences. The only reason Wasilewski broke his leg is because he went in with full force. He went in thinking 'I'm going to slide in real hard, so Witsel can't do anything with the ball'. Witsel defended himself by shielding his body. If you look at pictures he actually closes his eyes and there is no 'stamping' action whatsoever. The force needed to break a leg is all coming from Wasilewski rather than Witsel, who hardly moves at all.

But people like to blame the other guy when someone breaks his leg. Look at Mattiello. He should actually be sent off for what was a horrible foul on Nainggolan. But because he broke his leg, people turn it around and blame Nainggolan.

Tielemans has massive potential.
