Menez is a rather good player, who'd give us so needed versatility. For 3m it's a bargain.
A rather good player that absolutely fails at PSG, a team that we should leave behind us.

He's De Ceglie quality

I never saw any sane person saying this on these boards.
How many people accept a fullback to be defensively minded ?

You can't be serious with that last part. PSG like most of these newly rich clubs are destroying some wonderful talents. Menez was actually very good last season and season before as well. Don't know how much you've seen them, but he looks more mature compared to his days in Roma, more consistent. Only this season he's somewhat behind in the pecking order, but consider the talent at their disposal. In spite of that in the last few games he's been finding his place back among starters.

I don't know much about him other than he can play both up front and on the wings. Assuming we don't make a formation change, wouldn't he just be moving from one bench to another?

I thought he was much older than 26 :shocked:

People are talking about Menez like he's the best winger in the world

Fine, the best winger in the world costs 3 million and nobody is interested

Sounds completely logical, right ?

Players can be good quality, and benched by supreme quality

Thing is, good quality doesnt come as cheap as 3 mil when we talk Menez age

You dont know what fuck is, so dont even mention it you raging jerkoff

I so want to have a rage-off with Zach :lol: Where's BB81 to guide me through the process :D


No one said Menez is the best winger in the world, or even top best dozen even to begin with, but you said he is DC level when he is an all around good winger (only season and half ago he had 20 assists and 8-9 goals as a starter). Just one that has been outcompeted completely with an overabundance of quality in PSG, with lavezzi, Lucas, Pastore and now even Cavani playing winger over him, so yes there is he a reason he is forgotten now, very good one. And he only costs 3m because he is half a year from being free. And that he is cheap or free is the very reason that makes him even more enticing for us, its a very good market opportunity to address a dire need we have, no wingers whatsoever, let alone any good ones. He is actually quite flexible as a "winger", prolly better as an attacking midfielder, would give Conte some space to try out different variations.


Now go through the thread again, and see if anyone said he is anything close to the best winger, only thing I see is you comparing him to quite possibly our worst player. I for one though not a fan of him, wouldnt mind getting this just for 3m, or free.

I think the main reason here is that Menez is value for that amount of money and it's opportunity like this that Marotta loves to thrive on.
