Are you 15? What do you judge him off of, may I ask? Fifa? Watching him? Other people's opinions? I'm sure you haven't watched 10 games of Manolas,how do i judge him? Simple i have been watching Manolas since he has signed with Roma back in 2014 to be more precise i watch Serie A a lot. You find a lot of bad moments about Messi on Youtube does that make him bad?

I've stated twice now I've watched 40+ full games of his. Your rebuttal is made out of air; you watch a lot of Serie A. I watch a lot of Premier League - it doesn't mean I know shit about Southampton, Stoke City or Everton's niche players by default. You're not adding anything here, just taking away.

You asked me how i judge a Manolas didn't you? so i replied saying that i watch a lot of Serie A and that i have been following Manolas since he signed for Roma. He didn't have a good 2016/2017 season but he still one of the best CB in Serie A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 You've specifically watched Manolas since he signed? You've been watching that many Roma games, and honed in specifically on Manolas all this time, instead of their handful of quality players? Why? They're my '2nd' team if I ever had one; you sound like a casual Serie A observer. No Roma fan considers Manolas to be one of the best centre backs in Serie A. I can list 10+ right now who're better, but this conversation's done.* *So i'll list them for my own amusement. Miranda, Rudiger, Romagnoli, Antei, Bonucci, Vrij, Conti, Caldara, Koulibaly, Fazio, Chiellini, Rugani, Benatia. Samir... ..... and then there's Manolas.

simonez 69 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Since joining Roma Manolas has been constantly one of the best defenders in Serie A. Unfortunately it seems the reason he didn't join Zenith was he doesn't want to live in Russia and not Chelsea trying to hijack the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimitr 488 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Chelsea have decided to trigger the release clause in Kostas Manolas’ Roma contract in a bid to sign the Greece defender. (Alfredo Pedulla via TalkSPORT) #CFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldportblue 547 Posted June 15, 2018 Share Posted June 15, 2018 Manolas would be great but I'm not really sure why we seem so desperate to get a CB when we have much more pressing needs... I guess adding a quality player is never a bad thing though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that determined intimidating look on him, it's like he's saying come near me, I kill you. And he never compromises, always goes in fighting and hustling. And his on-the-ball qualities are also great, look at his diagonals for example... reminds me of vintage JT when he used to whip them across the field with his left like it was nothing. Beast, want him to be a starter next season in a back 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beast, want him to be a starter next season in a back 4. Its that look that gets me too. Looks like some Brixton hit man. But the interviews Ive seen of him he seems like a really chilled out lad (Bet hes a crack too looking at his dance moves). But hes also got that Kante determination. He should have a good WC cause it looks like the refs have turned a blind eye and are letting them use all sorts of MMA fighting. But can you imagine him next to Koulibaly? We have always had a strong physical defence and those 2 in the middle would take some bottle to get near them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted September 14, 2018 Share Posted September 14, 2018 Basically if he signs the new contract with the release clause removed then hes staying put forever.
