Add a playmaker like Maddison and we may become good againHim and Bentacur in our midfield could be very special!
Yup. I cannot see us getting him though. I think lo celso with a fully fit Benta and biss would be a decent midfieldAdd a playmaker like Maddison and we may become good again
Not based on anything I've seen in the last 3 years. We can't be starting the season with Lo Celso in the first team.Yup. I cannot see us getting him though. I think lo celso with a fully fit Benta and biss would be a decent midfield
100% never doubted him, just not being used correctly.I'm still so excited by this signing if I'm completely honest. We have a seriously good player there if he recaptures his Brighton form. Can't wait to see him be able to play with a bit more freedom and in an attacking side.
Lo Celso, Bissouma and Bentancur in a high energy high pressing posession based system could work very well.ffs I despair if anyone is seriously thinking Lo Celso is an option for next season.
I agree with this, my only concern (and I’m not expert) is that would the team be defensively stable enough with him and Bentencur? Do they provide enough cover to the back line? Would love to see us go 4231 with Bentencur, Biss and say Maddison. Skip, Sarr and (don’t shoot me) Ndombele as cover..Him and Bentacur in our midfield could be very special!
Yes, took a while for him to be trained into the Conte system, before he was allowed on the pitch, hopefully the long layoff has got that out of his system.That video of the cut on his ankle for the operation is pretty severe. As much as we'd love him back I think I would now prefer it if he came back ready for next season. We haven't seen the best of him and he will need a bit of time to get Conte's game out of his head and get back to the player we saw at Brighton who was very very good.

In his whole career, or playing in dogshite Conte system where he's asked to just recycle the ball and nothing else?Why is everyone suddenly hyped again? I can't remember him having a single good game pre injury
Bentancur managed to look a hell of a lot better in the exact same system.In his whole career, or playing in dogshite Conte system where he's asked to just recycle the ball and nothing else?
Because he is more suited to that system than Bissouma and he had a long run of games?Bentancur managed to look a hell of a lot better in the exact same system.
