Thor 2,713 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Would be great if true. He is a perfect player for the premier league. Like I said, we need players who are physical, and technical with the ball. I know a lot on here are ooing and aahing over City getting Silva, but he doesn't have the physicality IMO. Great players today are physical beasts with great technical ability. They don't possess just the one attribute. This sets us up for right now, and the future. Would be our best signing in some time.

Exactly. We should be getting physical players who are good on the ball, energetic(stamina), quick and can dribble. It is annoying when we buy players who don't possess these five qualities in the past. I used to wonder what the heck our scouts do all day, are these types of players so rare to get for a team of our level? But it looks like Conte is fixing that now. After all, someone who spotted vidal, Pogba, Bonucci, Cheilini and wanted Sanchez, Morata while in Juventus knows exactly the type of players who elevates a teams quality.

My point is, I see people going gaga for players who are slow, easy to push off the ball and not dynamic in any sense. I keep mentioning Silva, because I honestly think he'll be a similar level to Mahrez, while playing on a far better team, hence making it easy to look better.

You are severely underestimating Bernardo, we missed out big time on him, he will be a hit im sure of it. But anyway, Sandro would be an absolutely superb signing, i will be over the moon if we pull it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silva is not easy to push off the ball, he is no Hazard in that regard. But he is not a that type of player that takes defenders on one on one. His game to a certain degree similar to his future teammate David Silva. He is going to be a big hit, especially under Guardiola. Getting the best out of players like Silva is the mans bread and butter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is nothing like David Silva,other than the fact that they are both great at keeping posession and passing the ball, i have no idea why people keep mentioning it, he is much more similar to Messi if anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He takes players on, but not a dynamic way like Hazard goes past players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's too big 625 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Not believing anything until he said he's leaving or staying with his own mouth. Ijust hope we have a plan B in case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Apparently Juve are recalling a guy from loan, who coincidentally plays left wing-back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 If we can get this done then what a fabulous signing. He is what I said before, an elite player. This guy offers a smattering of everything going forward, defending and ball control to match. What a statement if this gets over the line.

Artandur 939 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Can't stop thinking about the possibility of hazard and sandro combining down that side. That would be truly devastating. Trying to not get too excited... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 If we get him and Van we should go to a back 4 me thinks. I truly feel that Conte wants to go to his favorite formation of 4-2-4. Just that he never could because he don't have the player. Remember he is a Taylor and makes it work with what he got. But if the board give him what he wants, then that will be to make his original plan come to fruition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
