Well, you have to take into consideration that I'm getting desperate here....
But, ideally, I would rather want Matuidi, as I see him as more explosive and empowering, someone to really take hold of the game. But that said, from what I've seen of the two players, Witsel strikes me as being more technically gifted, although a much "calmer" player.
Perhaps Witsel is more suited to Italien football?
I really don't know, my friend. The verdict is out on this move. All I know is that Witsel will be a much better option for us than Hernanes or Sturaro, and at this point that's all I want. If he can come here for a decent price, I say go for it.
