Not too arsed considering what we accomplished after 2010, but imagine had we signed Aguero instead of Torres. Could've dominated in style with Aguero instead of Torres, total shame had it in the bag but one of the only times Abramovic's obsessions fucked us.

Dunno who but was a major fuck up either way, Aguero was there for the taking and we baulked to get Torres, at least he made up for it when we won CL and EL.

I find it hard to believe Ancelotti would prefer a Torres that was going downhill over a young, to-be-great striker in Aguero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has Ancelotti ever declined it though? Would be strange for Wilkins to fabricate that. I wouldn't put it past Ancelotti for preferring a premier league proven player over Aguero at the time.

I think he wanted him. Although he was declining, Ancelotti talked about us needing a freshness to try revive our title defence which is why I think he pushed for him and David Luiz because they were younger and different to what we had. Plus you look at the squad then, it was needing more players with different attributes to offer and younger more importantly. We had also made bids for them both in the summer that were rejected also. Which Ancelotti also thinks didnt help Torres.

MoroccanBlue 5,408 Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Konate starting his medical with Liverpool. Can't help but feel we are missing a trick here. The moment Tuchel feels forced to revert to a back 4, all of our defensive troubles will arise again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps on getting injured let them have him, EPL is not exactly kinder when it comes to physical aspect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True though none of them costed 70M, onl 60 and 40. Cancelo is a RB, just has been used at times as a LB. Zinchencko is their main LB atm. Mendy is a semi bust IMHO.

He played ridiculous amount of games for Milan considering his age and had the chance to make big saves as his club’s defence has been crap since he around(recently inproved maybe), but I don’t see him that outstanding, he wouldn’t improve our game IMO.

He is free though, if we can get rid of Kepa and replace him we wouldn't lose much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
