Prior to Matic, I'd say City, Tottenham and than Arsenal were better.

With the addition of Matic, hopefully its just under City-Spurs.

Spurs? Really? :lol:

Their pivot players have been average at best this season. Capoue has all the technical ability in the world and a brain the size of a peanut. Paulinho can run all day but can't pick up a pass for his life; he's just a worse version of Ramires. And I'm a big fan of Holtby, but he hasn't nearly lived up to his potential so far. Sandro is good but I'd take Matic over him.

One thing I like about this transfer is how jealous fans of other teams are. I've seens quite alot of United/City/Arsenal fans admitting that they'd wanted him for their team and how it's a steal toget him for 20m and so on.It bodes well. :)

When you see the likes of Holtby, De Bruyne, Schuerrle, seems like the good but not top players from Bundesliga have difiiculties to adapt to the premier league where the games are not as open as 80% of the Bundesliga games.

I guess its possible but I've not yet seen Jose use Oscar in 4-3-3. Logic says he can probably play there though

A bit off topic, but I could never understand what people see the big difference between 4-3-3 and the 4-2-3-1 that we are currently playing, at least offensively. When we're on the ball, Oscar drops deep right next to the two pivot players to create triangles or to carry the ball forward himself then when the ball is played forward to the wings he makes a run forward similar to the runs that Frank had been doing for years in a 4-3-3. Admittedly the defensive side is different because of our pressing system which sees us press almost in a 4-4-2 shape with Oscar pressing with the striker, but in offense I see little difference between what Oscar plays now and what the most advanced CM in a 4-3-3 plays.

Yeah the standards for defending has gone down in the Bundes Liga in recent years. I wouldn't want to see how these players cope in the Serie A, for example!

That said, I think Holtby can do well in the EPL if he has the right attitude because he certainly has the physical attributes for it.
