Yes, because I hated the transfer itself.
I said it last week after Inter - the kid is playing very well, he's useful and likable. But he was bought when we had the worst midfield since I can remember. It is still the worst midfield of the last decade. We bought an American kid from Schalke at the point where we had to buy at least two important starters in midfield. For some 3 years we're struggling badly due to our midfield, and when it seemed obvious that we're going nowhere without a big buy there, first we're buying Arthur, and then McKennie.
We both know you didn't like the signing because Hustini is the most annoying member on Tuz.

It seemed to me that his role today was to play between the lines and drop in the zone between Roma's RCM and RCB and that role shows his limitations. His main trait is his engine which is very useful to make those runs from deep and play a classical box-to-box midfield, but he doesn't has the tactical awareness, silky first touch and smart movement that Ramsey has to play such a role.

Who is a rich man's McKennie? Somebody who plays like Wes but is better on the offensive end? I'm guessing an in form Ramsey would be a good shout or peak Marchisio. Vidal is too limited offensively while Pogba isn't as active defensively. Ndombele has all the tools.

Is Wijnaldum still on an expiring contract?
