Cesc is no better than in-form Barkley. Barkley even being type of player that we are needing more (as we already have Cescs' qualities in Jorginho). In-form Barkley is actually capable of scoring goals. Why do people think Cesc could play in that more advanced role? He was NEVER good at it.

Lol, got me there. Put Kante where Morata is, in crowded area between huge defenders, and you will see Ronaldinho... if you guys didn't know.

From one extreme to another. No, he is nowhere near being "second best dribbler", but is not bad at dribbling. He has no that much close control in his moves with the ball, but has really good acceleration and that is often enough. It's foolish to think that he is on Willian and Pedros' level. 1. Hazard 2. Willian, Pedro 3. Kante, David Luiz, Azpi, Moses, Morata (and Emerson, RLC and Barkley I would say, just need to see more of them - with RLC maybe even leveled with Pedro and Willy) 4, Alonso, Rudiger, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, Zappacosta, Fabregas (he is ok-ish actually, but way way too slow this days), Giroud So, all in all, he should be enough.

This Jorginho transfer just gave us false hope. Boards is still retarded, no worries.

I think Fekir would cost around 50 millions. Guy scored 18 goals and gave 8 assists last season. And surely IS available, Liverpool exposed that, only them went for much much cheaper option in Shakira. Fuckin' hate this board most of the time.

Are we retarded? Yes, we are retarded.

That run when he shook off his marker, damn it boy. Fell in love a bit.

Pedro could be really valuable to this team, considering that Willian will most likely leave. I would keep him. Played good today, played under this system for around 10 years. Same goes for Cesc, he played good in first half. Those two could be great great subs. Hope Emerson get more chances, from the start if possible, Alonso was just not good.

People are misjudging Kante. He is not "faster Makelele" - he is rather much better and skilful Ramires.

Midfielder is not asked to pass and control football? For everything you are describing, you need to have exactly those two qualities - passing and ball control. If you have those two, with right coach, you will play good one touch football. EDIT: I see now what you meant. He is box to box, you expect Kante to play like that. I think he is already doing it actually.

Not to mention that Callejon isn't something special technically too. He is fast and durable, I'll give him that, but either Willian or Pedro are better technically.

Lol, like that Allan guy is better than Kante in passing and ball control. Relax, every team in the world can afford one Kante in the team.

--- Barkley (RLC) ---------- Kante (Bakayoko) --- ---------------- Jorginho (Fabregas) ----------------- This is not bad.

Seems like we always have too much wingers that want to play at left side, or that are simply better at left side. Only Pedro can play wherever. Really hope CHO can make it, he seems the best we produced in years, but if Hazard stays, his chances would be really limited.

No legs in midfield, but I guess we won't need them today.

I hope to God he won't prefer Alonso over Emerson.

For a love of God, sell! Huge huge mistake if he stays.

City is loaded in midfield so aaaalll the good midfielders are ours, lolz Poslano sa mog SM-A310F koristeći Tapatalk

Why, just why? Could have easily had him Poslano sa mog SM-A310F koristeći Tapatalk

Please NO, just bring feckin Golovin or leave our midfield as it is and go buy wingers and striker!

This guy should go to Atletico or that kind of club, he'd be monster there. For his own good.

Willian leaving is just like Matić leaving, more or less. Not that hard to replace, but if we bring some Bakawinger, of course we would miss Willy.

Yeah... but to be honest, Morata would be the worst thing that could happen to Milan. They have no much creativity in their squad, only Suso, service to Morata would be terrible. They need proven scorer.

AC Milan just got their European ban overturned, don't know if that helps us in this case or not... Probably not.

Man, his head is off. Board would WANT to sell him at some point, because there is possibility for him leaving next summer, for much smaller fee.
