Kante's defensive statistics this season (Premier League):
-4.5 tackles per game
-4.2 interceptions per game

Vidal's defensive statistics 2012/2013 season (Serie A) (25 years old back then):
-4.9 tackles per game
-1.5 interceptions per game

I would compare goals but Vidal often took our pks. Passing wise, they're pretty much the same.

well, you seem to be impressed by him - i'm not, and that won't change :p
he is great at what he does, but nowadays i want a complete CM who can tackle, score and pass. he looks way to one-dimensional and limited to me. imo Khedira adds more to our game than Kante would, and from what i've seen i say Lemina can become better than Kante.
The only thing Khedira adds is work to our medical staff :snoop:

Are you kidding me?! Vidal is a much better passer!
Kante is better at reading the game IMO
Defensive wise I think Kante is actually better but there are no comparisons on their attacking game!

agreed...and how often a year do we play against teams like these? in Serie A teams park the bus against us and Kante would be pretty much useless most of the time, because his running and tackling isn't needed (kinda like Sturaro). imo Khedira's skillset makes him the better player - at least for juventus.

Kante might be great for a team like Atletico.

inb4 Osman ruins me.
I think you missed my point there - He is a player who can really improve our defensive game and while he`ll be a very good signing for Serie A and average CL teams he`ll be more than just great when we`ll take the likes of Bayern and Barca

We need players which can take us that extra step - players that can get us through tough opponents
Are we going to get pass teams like PSV Porto Chelsea... We will probably pass them with our current lineup as well
In order to get even better we need 2 things
1. Get better attacking player such as the type of AM we dream of and great strikers creative midfielders and etc..
2. Get someone who can help us handle better against teams such as Bayern and Barca

1. We are all talking about on a daily basis
2. This is not a must but it would surely boost our chances if we have a player who is an engine on the field and also the type of player who can take top players out of their game - I`m not saying Kante will make Messi look like a shadow of himself as Messi to me is the greatest ever but he is definitely the player who is the most likely to mark him (Messi is just an example here I`m talking in general)

Ohh and about Khedira`s skill set - He has nothing over Kante except for passing which I think is his weakest area of his game

Minus his offensive contribution (while Kanté's still pretty good at countering), absolutely.

In other words, closer to Vidal than Khedira is to Marchisio.
Vidal at Juve was the best CM in the world yet you tell me that freaking Kante is close to that. Youre actually more clueless than I thought

Why the need to be petty or childish? Just discuss or argue what you disagree with, if it leads no where let it go. Don't become another zizinho mon cherie.

Because there wasn't much that needed to be said in reply. Got what you meant.

Doesn't mean it needs to succumb silly posts that take it personal because of disagreeing on players.

-buy Lemina and Cuadrado and keep them permanent/IF we can keep cuadrado don't need a RWB
-keep key players(pogba,morata,DYBALA)
-buy Vrsalijko as Wingback
-buy Romagnoli as back up/our defenders get injury much
-bring in Berardi as RW /for 4-3-3
-need to a ST like Cavani
-bring in either Kante or Isco. Verratti and draxler would be my first options/but they wont come cheap
Sell:
-Hernanes
-sell either asamoah or pereyra
-sell Mandzukic (if we can buy berardi+cavani)

and i got what you meant. no need to discuss further.

there is no wrong or right. for now it's just Opinions.

i don't think he is something special, you do. that's about it. time will tell.

and about the "silly post" - why was it silly? people seriously underrate Khedira - a CL, WC, LaLiga, 2xCopa del Rey, Buli and :)xfinger:) future Serie-A winner, whilst overrating Kante. but i know i know...people will tell me Khedira was only in the right place at the right time because teams were in need of a mediocre player. lucky Sami.

"Brazilian media claim Juventus told Manchester City and Manchester United that Alex Sandro costs €50m."

I sure hope this is false 'cause he is really impressive for us and wanting 50 after paying 26 is not ok for such a vulnerable spot in modern football. I can't go back to De Ceglie :sergio:

All big teams need mediocre players in their starting lineups
