Zappa has to start ahead of Azpi.

I'm not sure i'm ready for that yet.  Azpi hasn't been great, but...well.....Zappacosta

It would be incredibly sad if Kante and Azpi just are not the right players for Sarriball

ye i would ask around if anyone wants kante for 120-150m after this season.

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Wow watching Cesc run is so painful lmao

[Vybzkartel 284]

Fabregas is done at this level. 

[Vybzkartel 284]

nah Im convinced Zappa is greater than Azpi

[Pizy 17,860]

Kovacic, man. Amazing footballer. So beautiful to watch when he's on the ball and when he's off it he's always finding that pocket of space. Puts in a defensive shift as well.

Hes the glue that links the defense and attack. This is what he has that Ross doesn't.

Jesus Christ! Must Barkley be compared with Kovacic every single time?

man, i tought Aleksandr Hleb was retired already, still playing at 37 i see, good for him

[Vesper 27,282]

Sad to see Cesc at this level, he is well and truly a spent force.

Wilian is still a fucking ball hog and selfish

All the rest, great!!!!

Emerson has finally looked a bit like Roma Emerson, although BATE are complete shit, so hard to gauge.

Every game I see I lean more and more to selling Kante (for £135m to £150m)

We simply don,t need him in this system, he doesn't bring enough to the table to justify blocking a £135m plus sale.

Sorry if this offends anyone, I have read 50 plus articles, seen every pro Kante argument tossed out there

as long as Sarriball is the order of the day, he is not a player worth the quid we can get for him

we need to use him as leverage to get either Mbappe or Dybala

he is just being wasted here

he deserves better

[Johnnyeye 7,405]

Ruben has been very sharp so far, great game so far, 2 goals and very dynamic, i would like to see CHO and Ampadu sometime soon

if we sell Kante we will regret it for the rest of our lives, one of a kind player.

He's still a human though and his playing style is so demanding that he can't continue playing at this level for many years. If we were to sell him, summer 2019 would be THE time to do just that

See, I'd rather he came off and reduced injury possibility or fatigue.  i want to see Pedro start this weekend.

Mayne Barkley in at RW and CHO at left!

He just isnt needed in this system and to toss away £135m plus is crazy now.

Only if you think Sarri is sacked in next 14 to 16 months is it worth keeping him.

[Milan 17,835]

that linesman reminds me of Ovrebo

i just dont see the need to sell the wee baldy man, we all know what he can offer to the team, but hey its your opinion Vesper, no harm done here  

[!Hazard! 3,394]

To those who watched yesterday's Barca-Inter game, would you realistically see Kante in that fantastic midfield instead of Rakitic, Arthur or Busquets. I wouldn't. He might not even start for Man City. 

Great player but obviously can't play in every system. Just like Jorginho or Busquets would look like Tom Cleverley in Mourinho's tactics
