It's not typical 'tuz, these things happen everywhere. Pogba in the United forums, Pirlo in Milan forum, different NBA forums and other sports. There is a natural connection and people will always talk about the 'what if' situation.
No one actually expected him to turn out this good. From the general atmosphere, I'd say he was the least rated of our crop of young strikers last season.
On here, yeah. He was easily the least rated. Gabbiadini would have been the most highly rated. Funny how things work out. Most of the time you just have no way of knowing who will explode and who will flop. Players or managers.
I think you missed my point, rather Tuz predictable demeanour than an opinion on Immobile. This thread will be bumped so many times we may as well change the title to @swag.

That is my biggest regret, selling him for 19m. Should have done better there, at least waited for the WC to end and then see our options. But blaming mgt for selling his half last year is ridiculous, when he really did seem like a rather mediocre striker. Personally I rated Gabbiadini more than him, maybe still do.
Do you think every rough tackle is deliberate then? If he had a history of such things then you might be on to something, but it's about as likely to just have been a stupid harsh move than it was to be deliberate.
