I like him a lot so far. An upgrade over Benta, especially on the ball retention. Dude doesn't shit his panties when under pressure and doesn't make deadly give aways in our half of the pitch. I'm sold, valuable player to have imo.

Allegri also seems be in love with him, playing him from the very beginning, praising him at the presser. Seems like he really is a player he wanted.

You're the informer

 

[Akshen]

still no explanation? seems weird he didnt even get any minutes

 

[zizinho]

Cant he pass?

 

[IlCapitano]

Except the pass to Rabiot in the first half he was ghosting, partly because they were not attacking on his side much. Second half much better, good passes in spaces, recovered balls, carried the ball forward.

I want to see him and Loca together alone in midfield.

Thought he had a decent game..

Played a superb first time pass to play Rabiot in on goal in the first half and a good one in the second half, plus covered the defence.

that pass was the highlight of his game, that was beautiful indeed. defense? he was dribbled by a couple of times, finished the game with 0 tackles, 0 intercepted balls, 1/6 duels won (he's taller than rabiot ffs) and with some back passes instead of trying to go forward. if that's decent then we really lowered our expectations. i don't know this guy too much, so no final verdict from me, i just thought he was below par tonight.

Was meaning more getting back to cover the space defensively rather than tackles/interceptions. I'm surprised those numbers are so low though.

 

[LiquidPLP]

Yeah, he was disappointing and for sure too shy. Then, the whole team was so, probably instructed by the coach.

Yeah sissoko was atleast a defensive monster but when some people mentioned that Zakaria has lost his agility and a yard of pace after the knee injury I can understand know.

yeah, allegri specifically asked everyone to lose duels and play like pussies. totally plausible.

I don't expect him to be the commander in the middle but his game will be much better when the ones next to him are better. Rabiot is Rabiot and Locatelli was disappointing yesterday.

I'm assuming that Zakaria still has to gain experience - that’s why Rabbit still gets to play ahead of him.

Zakaria will never replace Rabiot - Zakaria cant use left foot to save his life, wont ever play on the left side. He is bought to play at right side of the pitch, either as RCM or right sided CDM in double pivot.
