Yeah you are right about that. I just think paying out for a player who’s done both ACLs is simply unwise. Talented player no doubt but I’m antsy about it. Money could go towards Maddison or Olise who have similar profiles.
Technically Paqueta is currently 24 and Zaniolo is 23 but yes your right his birthday is in August.
Forgive me if I'm wrong but isn't paqueta very patchy? Supposedly he was quite hit and miss last season and basically downed tools when Guimares left. That might be completely wrong but I remeber hearing that on a podcast somewhere.
WhatsApp chats innit
Moura's output have basically doubled under Conte than he had under Mourinho, the same with Bergwijn. So this is really good comparison to make. Pellegrini and Tammy also had better stats in previous seasons.
He is 23 until he is 24....etc etc lol
Oh yeah of course. Like I said the other day a lot of the time when they are quoting "their sources" they mean each other. Nothing wrong with that, but a lot seem to think when lots of them start posting it on twitter it means it's more credible. The majority of them will have legitimate links to various clubs, but when they look like they have sources about everything that's going on everywhere they don't.
Yep. WhatsApp/social media making rumors into truth within hours.Must have hit the whatsapp group
I think there are quite a few exceptions! Zola, Di Matteo, Jorginho, Vialli, Ravanelli, Di Canio, Cudicini, Balotelli. I think overall there haven't been that many Italians who have wanted to play outside of Italy and in the prem, but that's not to say that the ones who did come here did a bad job.
I think three people reacted to me saying lorem ipsum was Zaniolo. I thought “Latin text” was a more elegant cryptic as well, but it didn’t seem likely.You were all going SMS after a recent ITK post.
I said at the time it could well be Zaniolo, plays multiple positions, we still hold an interest in Italy.
I don't want to be feckin right. No-one likes a smart arse, but I no likey Zaniolo.
And there are very obvious comparisons. The dribbling and not always making the right decisions, the pressing and work rate, the shithousery and the injuries. I actually think Conte would have liked Lamela but he was gone before Conte got here. He had some pretty big flaws to his game particularly with decision making and Zaniolo is similar but in a Conte system you don't really have to over think things because he has laid out in detail exactly what you have to do in every scenario. Taking that thinking process out of players minds has improved quite a few of our players and probably could have got the best out of Coco. This is how Conte works, finds the traits he really likes in a player, builds up their strengths and then negate their weaknesses through structure and routine.
