Manuel Locatelli (23 Viewers)

I think Sergej is also a great choice for us. As a player I'd pick Pogba but as a team fight I'd probably pick Sergej.

Yes Sergej is a good choice too but I forget totally about him because Lotitto. He almost does not exist for me

Yeah, I get that too.

While everyone was wanking over our future moves over the past 5 months, I always had a feeling we won't be spending much. But even I was surprised how we managed this summer mercato. It's like our wallet is literally empty. Still, I believe covid took a big blow there. Considering how we moved and how we spend (we did manage to sign Locatelli, luckily, but those installments are nuts), it seems all of those three are totally out of our reach. It might change next year if covid vanishes and if we get Ronaldo off our wages, however, it still seems quite unlikely we'll be making 50-80mln moves for one player.

No to Bentancur.

We need another CM unfortunately.

Brace yourself then, he will play a lot. If not him, then McKennie - RCM will be about these two for sure.

On the left aka LCM we have Rabiot and Berna, fuck knows how it will pan out but it doesn't give too much comfort too.

Not so clear.

We'll see which role Allegri sees for Locatelli and Arthur. Locatelli has always played better as a mezzala than as regista in a midfield 3. Another option is his role at Sassuolo in in midfield 2 roaming up and down.

It can be

Rabiot-Arthur-Locatelli

Or

Bernardeschi-Locatelli-Bentancur

Or 10 other possibilities.

We have many players that can play mezzala/b2b role and pretty much nobody for the holding mid/regista role. To me this much is clear.

Glad we finally sorted this deal out, would have been silly to miss out on a talented player such as himself whom has also been strongly pushing for months to only join us afterall.

Welcome, i’m sure he will be an much needed added value to our midfield.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

Glad we got him obviously.

After missing out on Verratti, Barella and Tonali (I think he will come good soon), it would have been a disgrace if we missed out on Locatelli as well.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

Yeah we do, but that's going to be our midfield this season.

Bentancur - Locatelli - Rabiot
(McKennie) - (Ramsey) - (Bernardeschi)
(Fagioli?) (Arthur*)​

Oh I have no doubts that our transfer market is closed for the summer.

I just don’t want Bentancur anywhere near the starting lineup this season. I’m expecting better things from McKennie tbh.

Another mediocre Italian DM we signed, the type of player we can find anywhere. We need strong AM like Isco or James Rodriguez, this board is a failure even without Marotta and Paratici...

History will prove you right

Are we giving all our new signings white shirts to show up in after the Elia disaster years ago?

Congratulations for all of you guys ...

I was expecting more attack minded mid but Loca could be the answer ... hope he will do well

That Bentancur - Locatelli midfield Finally the dream has become a reality.

 

[Allegri_is_God]

Welcome and good luck

 

[Ronn]

Ideally someone like Renato Sanchez would be great. The most obvious choice for me remains Pogba.

Sanches just operated his meniscus and will be out for some time

 

[Turk_Bianconero]

Sanches just operated his meniscus and will be out for some time

then he is more than welcome.
