- Thread starter Cheesio
- Start date
He should still have a lot of room develop. He is not starting 11 material yet but that is understandable he is very young. He could be like Marchisio was for us for sometime which is a reliable rotation option though not first team material yet before finally becoming a top player. Marchisio used to start for the lack of better options during the Ranieri, DN etc.. era but as he aged he became better and better (2011/12) and then regressed a little before taking his final leap last season.
Pereyra can start now until we get a top AM and with age and game time he might develop into a top player too in a few years. Our targets now are higher than during the Ranieri and DN era so I hope he doesn't play as often as marchisio did but its not so bad for him to be our starter until we find an AM that we are sure can be great at that role.
I'd rather pereyra start than we buy a hyped player for lots of money who ends up not giving much better than what Pereyra would have given us. This would be a waste of money and a slowdown to Pereyra's growth. Management should only buy an AM when they are sure that there is very little risk that the new player wont be world class.
In the absence of a young guaranteed talent on the market that we can buy, I dont mind getting an older very experienced fella on the cheap like Sneijder until we find the right player for that AM role.
