Kostas Manolas - CB - Roma (24 Viewers)

[Juventino[RUS]]

It's not like we are full with defenders and own best young italian central defender let's sign another /promising/ young defender from abroad

My boss who is Greek (knowledgeable of greek footie in general) and knows him well says he is not fast at all, but has decent promising talent, ok positioning/reading of the game. But that he is not ready for top football, not worth this kind of money yet and needs to be groomed couple of seasons and be tactically developed well before being ready, says its better for him to go Italian/south european footie teams then EPL one where all the space of the latter would show his limitaitons more.

So why am I not surprised, we already signed Bonucci, Ogbonna we should keep the tradition going with overpriced average defenders

According to some reports if we get Manolas, Bonucci may be the one who will be sold. To Monaco. I just have read this on another forum and frankly, if we are going to use 433 or another formation with 4 players at the back, it wouldn't be such a stupid idea. I really like Bonu, but his performances and attitude in 4-man back line, are enigma. And if there is a tempting offer on the table it should be at least conidered. He won't be any better than he was under Conte, he is 27 years old, it may be last chance to sell him for serious money.

And now Napoli is on the game for signing him.

 

[Van Helsing]

That guy, disagree with you.

wasn't he flop at Milan? and now backup at Dortmund?

best greek player btw.

 

[Brujitas]

Last year he played 42 games ( due to Subotic's injury ).
Also http://www.bundesliga.com/en/fanzone/team-of-the-season/
It's a fan-based choice, but still reflects his solid season.

Please let Napoli have Manolas.

Milan didn't trusted him. Anyway, forget Milan. He voted as one of the best Budesliga defenders, he was a great for BVB. Anyway, he is the best greek footballer by far and he costs over 15m.

One CB will have to come out...but at the same time how long will Barzagli be at his best? So we need to think of the near future also.

Sacrificing Bonucci is ok provided we bring in some better. Is this defender better? I don't think so.

 

[zizinho]

4 man defense:
Evra - Chiellini - Barzagli - Licht
Ogbonna - Bonucci - Manolas - Caceres

3 man defense:
Chiellini - Bonucci - Barzagli
Ogbonna - Manolas - Caceres

theoretically, we dont have to sell anyone even if we buy another CB...

 

[GrecoJuve]

Manolas as Bonucci. Oh my god, i can't wait to see this. Even Chievo will make fun of us.

 

[GrecoJuve]

Arsenal is linked with a move for Manolas. As Vermaelen's replacement.

 

[Dostoevsky]

They want Bonucci too accroding to TS.

 

[Bianconero81]

:xfinger:

 

[Robee]

Sell Bonucci, buy this guy, play Chiellini/Ogbonna - Caceres/Barzagli all season long. Sounds good.

Ogbonna or Leonardo out?

 

[LiquidPLP]

Ogbonna or Leonardo out?

At this point it doesn't matter. Hopefully we're selling one and not loaning out.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Ogbonna or Leonardo out?

Sell both, bring in Manolas and Nastasic. Drop 3-5-2


Dem dreams
