Damn,this guy's smooth aint he ?! @piotrr

His style of play suits teams like Dortmund or Liverpool more tho.
I predicted this kid to be good a few years ago, the first time I saw him play I became a fan instantly.

I think he'd be a very interesting option for us but I wouldn't put my money on him being a starter here at all. Attitude is very good though, skilled and hardworking CM/AM.

What i like about him is how equally good he is when using his both feet.I think thats a very good trait to have.
And you're right,does have a bit of grinta about him.
Ofcourse he wont be a starter here but if we're running out of options on the international market,wouldnt mind seeing us taking a chance on him.

We already have a top squad especially if we can retain Morata and Cuads.Dont think we specifically need a high profile player.Just need some midfield reshuffling + a Caceres replacement and we're good to go.

:tup: if we were able to sell one of our B2B (I guess one of Sturaro/Asamoah/Pereyra) I'd definitely love him here. A few weeks ago he mentioned Juve and Roma as his dream teams to play for (Juve being ahead of Roma of course :p)

For our NT he played as CM in 442 at times too.

He seems exactly like the kind of midfielder Pereyra is, so it would make most sense for us to sign him if we selll the former. Very mobile and attacking mezz'ala type.

You wouldnt know which is his stronger foot watching this video.I actually fake-fanned this game and couldnt watch it later on.

Unlike Pereyra,it does appear he can play regista/DM whatever.

I haven't seen/paid attention to him enough to know for sure, but Zielinski seemed better to me too. Stood out more and was more consistently involved throughout the game. Saponara, on the other hand, tends to not do much for most of the game but makes a couple of very nice passes/plays and that too not in every game.


I was actually hoping we'd sign one of Andre Gomes and Dahoud (preference in that order before, have no preference now) before we became heavily linked with AG, and now, we're linked with both of them which is great....if this La Stampa rumor is true. Can't think of any other good, young versatile mids who can play as B2B, regista, and AM though.

AG has better technique. Dahoud runs more, is better defensively, and is younger. Being 20 means he wouldn't count towards the squad size limit. A Dahoud-Marchisio-Pogba midfield would also be more balanced than A.Gomes-Marchisio-Pogba.


Pereyra might be replaced with a U21 AM/LW.

Been linked to Leverkusen's Kramer as well from la stampa but he's a pure CM from what i know

inb4 Nostradamus.Seems like his meltdown from the Atleti game is longer than i thought.

- - - Updated - - -

Montolivo would be free if he comes here.I really wouldnt break my head if we sign him but yeah he's certainly an undesirable option.Rather just keep Hernanes.
Not really a meltdown, but of course huge disappointment and a feeling of emptiness and head in the sand.

Kramer is possible to get and a player, who roams around a lot to close spaces best suited to a partner with DLP abilities who structures the game. His passing is ok too.

Dahoud is impossible to get, as Eberl cannot stop mentioning that he isnt for sale and next year Bayern and Dortmund, among others, ll fight tooth and nail for him.

- - - Updated - - -

Kramer,Xhaka and Dahoud have been mentioned as alternatives.

Xhaka will be sold to Arsenal for like 50M.So they will definitely hold on to Dahoud.

Kramer is the other alternative and a 25M price tag has been mentioned in the latest reports.

Got a feeling we'll end up buying within Italy in the end.And no,not the Pjanic's of the world but maybe someone like Zielinski or someone else of a similar profile.There's Diawara as well.
Thx for sparing me time. :tup:
