Somewhere out there, @Fr3sh is going absolutely mental at deals looking likely for Pogba and Asamoah.

Is he a box to box midfielder in the Essien/Vieira mould or another Momo? Just a destroyer?

As far as I know, he is similar to Vieira and Yaya Toure.

His reputation is that of being the former. His nickname is also "the new Vieira".

Ferguson really rated him. Here's what he had to say about him after a match vs. West Brom in march:

' Speaking to MUTV, the Scot said: “The boy is still trying to make his mind up but he knows where he should be and he has shown today the potential he has got.

“He is a first team player, there is no question about that.” '

@Salvatore

Indeed. Wouldn't have really made sense that he wanted to be in the first team at Man Utd but not at Juve...thanks.

Hopefully the reports are true though.

Reminds me of a cross between Vieira and Yaya.

Seriously now, no Cronios, why are we buying so many midfielders?

 

[Tommy]

Soon?

Vidal-Higuain swap?

Marotta is building an army, his plan is to co-own the world.

 

[Völler]

Vidal-Higuain swap?

Kind of my thought. At least that we're probably going to sell Vidal in a year or two. Just wrote it in the Vidal thread minutes ago.

Co-own with whom?

From a MUFC-fan at the Redcafe: "I'm not really angry, he isn't taking anything away from the team since he never really offered much, but it is just annoying that he's left a team crying out for midfield help for one that is overrun with top quality central midfielders."

Man, it feels so great reading that. In the era of Ranieri and Sissoko, I would've never imagined that we could get a better midfield than Manchester United, but we f*cking did!

Juve had a very good midfield back then:

Nedved-Zanetti-Sissoko-Camoranesi

Meh, that midfield is not really up to par for a team wanting to compete for CL.

 

[I am John]

Zanetti-Sissoko

 

[Jem83]

Plus the fact that Nedved and Camoranesi were past it, especially Camo.

So no, that midfield wasn't very good.

It was decent, but pretty far from the one Man U had at the time. They won CL in 2008 and got to the final a year later.

We should loan him to pescara to boss the midfield with veratti
