'member when Allan was the solution to all our DM problems? :jj: 'members. Now not a peep.

Allan cut price incoming :beppe:
I would take him still. Napoli play so attacking they don't give a fuck to have a hard running and tackling CM.

FYI, when ppl talked about Allan we didn't have DM problems. He was desired as an addition to Pogba, Marchisio, Vidal.


And yet, after we underwent a Marotta made castration I would still take Allan easily over Can, Matic etc

are the rumors true that many of the chinese allegedly super-rich clubs are actually not that rich and fail to pay their players ? we could swoop in and help them by buying some of their stars for a little fee to enable them to pay the wages of the other players.

Yeah its true for like half the league right now it seems.

When it comes to china based players, only Alex Teixeira interests me for Juve.





Would be a nice reunion with Douglas Costa.

why not go for oscar ? could be that his move is too fresh, but we surely could make use of him.

edit: teixeira looks nice as well, dunno if he compares well to oscar but strikes me as a similar player.

Teixeira is more of an SS/AM type, hyper attacking, likes to be almost as a forward/striker when he used to be all around midfielder earlier years. Kinda reminds me of being a mix of Alexis Sanches and Aguero when he is around the box.


Oscar is good, but he is jack of all trades type, I'm not really found of his nonplussed style that doesnt much extra to a team.

thank you for that explanation.
on another topic, what exactly is that hype about mbappe based on ?

i mean one extraordinary season is little to get super excited about.
oliver bierhoff also had one extraordinary season. that does not make him a great player.

i somehow did not find any other statistics from the youth teams he played two years ago and the season before the last the one was not really exciting in terms of the goal to match ratio he had did not really suggest that he is the next best thing since sliced bread.


especially his heavy reliance on his speed and pace makes me think that his carreer could very well take a nose-dive if he suffers some knee injury and then all his "tricks" don't work anymore because he is (afaik from seeing him in the champions league) all about that pace.

From what I've seen in him, his decision making and determination really stood up. For me he won't be just a wasted talent because of this. He looks very mature for an 18 y.o.
