Better have Elia as LW than Pepe or Marchisio.

Hopefully Conte will know how to exploit his potential.

If we are going For Elia why not save the money and stick with Pepe who is the same level if not better than him. Really bad player

ELIA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pepe as good as Elia

He`s definitely not a bad player. And he`s definitely better than Pepe.

 

[Trequartista]

Pepe better than Elia

I was ok with Elia last summer and im not completley against him this summer but i feel we need results this year and cant afford to take risks, hoping players will come good if we don't get 3rd place this year we are fucked.

Yeah, Elia would be worth the risk, for the right price (max 8mil € (Hamburg asking 15 mil € is a joke to be honest)) if it wasn't for the LW position being so important for us next year. If he plays like he did last year for Hamburg we'll be in big trouble with him as our left winger. Maybe I'll be less against this deal if Marotta says that Conte asked for him, because it's true we have to buy the players that maybe are not the best but are good for Conte's system.

no, better than

Fuck me

It sucks I've witnessed Marchisio better than Vidal, let alone Pepe better than Elia. My god.

 

[Klin]

I don't know what to make of this transfer. He doesn't exactly lit the Bundesliga on fire with his performances for Hamburg, but he's clearly technically gifted and an improvement over Pepe.

For €8M I'd take the risk.

 

[Trequartista]

I don't rate Elia but saying that Pepe is better than him...

is quite hyperbolic.

 

[Salvatore]

At €8m, yeah, but it's sad if the club can only spend that sort of money on a LW this summer.

 

[Trequartista]

I think it is not so much about the money, but mainly about Elia fitting in Conte's tactics and being Conte's choice.

 

[Klin]

I don't believe we have much more money for transfers after Mirko, Licht and Vidal, Salv.

 

[Nicholas]

Exactly. If we've rejected Bastos which Conte did we won't sign Vargas. He wants a Winger who cuts inside and is able to beat his man. Very few of those Wingers on the market.

Why do I get the feeling that Elia and Lugano are squad 'completions' before the marquee signing

 

[-=DJANGO=-]

Elia as a back-up is great. Bale should be our priority and he would save some faces in this management. Man I don't know why Marotta isn't in London already??? Elia is good, sure he can cut in, but he is no Bale...

 

[Trequartista]

The marquee signing --->Floro Flores.

People laughing at "Pepe better than Elia". But you know what? He may very well be. Cack player.
