Tevez‘ goal rate/90 in premier league/serie A hovered between .40 and .70. Memphis last season in la liga was .58, and unlike Tevez he didn’t spend all his time as a CF as the primary target, as a matter of fact he spent most his time on the wing. Yeah Memphis flopped in England but that was years ago so idk why that should hold more water than his most recent season. And again, looks like he showed up more in big games than Tevez did.

So either Tevez is being overrated or Memphis is being underrated.

If we get him, he must watch a video of Benzema's action every day for at least 5 hours. He must emulate what Benzema did for Real Madrid, and grow more beard

Dude, I'm kidding. I'm never serious, I love you, you're in my signature. I read your posts to my friends, I named my son Rainhard Indonesia Jakarta Burke.

He's a devout Muslim and works in Singapore as a water taxi driver and part-time rickshawist.

I would say he is also a Juve supporter, but growing up I didn't allow him to have any other hobby other than reciting your posts aloud in school. Sure, he failed most subjects, but he MADE IT, man! Raijak Burke MADE it.

His mom is Iranian, tho. :/

Intell on behavioral problems at Lyon

Depay:
"I get the job done every time, I'm mentally strong. I have to accept the coach's decisions. I'm a little disappointed, I think I deserve more respect. I deserve better than that and I should play every game."

La risposta di Genesio:
"I want to apologise to Memphis. I apologise for any time you were late for the training, and I apologise for you wearing shoes from the sponsor instead of the club, knowing that it is forbidden."

"I apologise for your inadequate warm-up in Angers, that you were too late and your lack of commitment. Memphis, to have a good career, you will have to be humble."

Allegri will deal with this clown behaviour and get the best out of him. Half the forum will be in denial and say he always had a great attitude. Watch this space

This is why watching football trough statistics is useless

I just wonder how we will fit him in our squad, because no matter what we think, this guy is not coming here to sit on the bench. He will be a starter and that means we either play with two cf or put him on the left, but what happens with Kostic then? More and more signs of some hybrid 343 or 3412/352

There is a big difference though.
Tevez had the potential. Memphis is showing his potential but its way lower than Tevez.
Stats - Stats say things but it dont show you the whole picture.
Just watch Tevez`s season with us and imagine the best scenario possible, Im pretty sure you cant really expect him to play like Tevez with us.
Depay can be very good at times but can also be meh.
Its not a horrible transfer but honestly I`d take Morata way before I even think of Depay.

Also there is another thing we should consider - Our team back then was on the rise while now we seems confused and there is no linear growth.
