How much do you rate him?
Is he better than any of our mids?
IMO he would be an upgrade on Khedira, maybe not immediately, but i think he has better qualities in general and will eventually turn out to be a better player. Hes got amazing physical abilities, he scores goals, and is decent technically. I really do think hes a very good player that still can get better.

tolisso would replace lemina and probably asamoah, so yeah, that is an overall improvement. the team is as good as its worst player is, so replacing worst players bumps us up bit after bit

There's one player who is definitely worse than those two you mentioned. You know who I'm talking about :D

Yep, looks like hes the Lemina replacement, which im a little sad about. Mario had the potential to become a great player here which for whatever reason wont happen. Considering Asa is barely a CM these days, I dont think Tolisso can be called his replacement. That will probably be Spinazzola, versatile guy that can play anywhere on the left side and can be used as a Giaccherini type CM too I guess

Tolisso isn't going to be a Lemina replacement. You don't need to replace a player who has never been planned with but if there is a dog above we will never see another season of Khedira in starting XI. Let's pray

Based on their play on the field..
Lemina is definitely more talented and has far more potential but as for now Sturaro is the better player!

We won't pay for Tolisso unless Khedira leave for MLS.
Count how many midifielders we have currently.

Marchisio
Pjanic
Khedira
Sturaro
Mandragora
Rincon
Lemina
Betancour

playing 4-2-3-1
How many cms do we need?
I could agree on Tolisso being and up if one of Mandragora-Rincon and Lemina leave.
But still we just bought Betancour and Rincon.
What do we do? sell Mandragora and Lemina. Leaving Pjanic-Marchisio-Khedira-Tolissò + Sturaro and Betancour??
Unless we switch back to a 3 man midfield many won't be happy.
And it would be silly to spend 40m on Tolissò to field Pjanic+ another CM

In reality we would have Marchisio, Khedira, Pjanic, Tolisso and Rincon for the 2 man midfield, and them 5 + Sturaro for the 3 man midfield. Lemina is gone imo, Mandragora never plays and will be loaned out I think, same for Rodrigo
