Is this Manolas guy good or not?
I've read he's strong, fast and young, decent height (1.90), the adequate profile for our defense, which is getting more and more old and slow.
But how is his positioning, antecipation, concentration? I don't really care about his passing, as long as he is a solid defender.
If he has these characteristics and is solid... I'd be good for a 12M deal. Marotta is right on that, our defense need someone else to cut in. Cheillini is by no means a WC defender for sometime now, when he is playing well he is a monster, but he has been kind of irregular. Barzagli is getting older, we can't really trust Bonucci in a 4men defense, Ogbonna is a gamble.. we definitely should look for a new young and fast guy to come in.
