Hasn't he been pretty poor everywhere outside of La Liga? Don't think he was impressing much at Monaco as well as Inter. Seems like a risky proposition.
Couldn’t agree more this makes no sense whatsoever. I’m baffled. All window we wait for a deal then this????? Surely Daniel is smarter than this to pay £72m for a player that can’t even get in his national team?
Haha holy shit, this is like May all over again.
Trix did say deja vu!
He was a hot prospect at Monaco, who bought him for 20 mil of Seville at 19 and was something of a cuop when Inter bought him. He was horribly miss managed at inter but he also was a mess. He's the kind of player that you could make a YouTube video of him playing like Viera. He will have moments in games were he genuinely looks world class. But that is backed up by poor positioning, lack of focus and a tendency to get the hump when things don't go his way. I haven't seen enough of him at Valencia but it seems like his sorting himself out. Wouldn't spend big on him tho. Not after 1 season in Spain.
Personally I would prefer zielinski (who's being linked with BM) if we are looking to raid Napoli. But I very much doubt Napoli will sell another CM.
Don't think 2 20 year olds are gonna make us as good as City all of the sudden. Neither of which were full time starters at CM on their own teams.
Frenkie de Jong has a huge step-up to suffer if he comes to the PL trying some of the sh** he pulls of at Ajax. Their last big MF star that was touted is struggling in Germany so I will wait before making proclamations on this one.
