The same as Alonso, nowhere near Sandro's overall abilities. Its like comparing the new Opel Insignia with brand new BMW series 7.

You say that with a lot of confidence; from now on this question is asked - how many games have you seen?

Same as Alonso? Alonso's a great crosser, with a great header, who leaves a lot of space behind him when going forward.
Telles is an average crosser as far as wing backs are concerned, making that up with better awareness than the average wing back. He can't header to save his life, but he's a guy you want taking set pieces. He defends better than 3 of the top 5 so-called best full backs in Europe; if you get past him, he catches up (find me a faster full back); but players rarely get past him in the first place.
Alonso likes link-up play with his winger; Telles likes to carry the ball all the way forward himself.
Alonso could be a central defender if needed. Telles could straight up be a conventional winger if needed. I'd never put Alonso on the wing, or Telles in the centre, nobody would.

So how are they the same? Why do you want to share an opinion when you can no doubt not name 5 teams in the Primeira Liga? (Which isn't personal - it'd be shocking to me. I'm only plugged in because my granddad's favourite place is the touristy Algarve so I've been going there since I was 8.)

He's been a boss since Gala. But tell me more about Portugal, its league, and the players in it.

It really is a good fall-back (obvious pun ignored) option. Like I wrote before, Sandro is obviously the top target, and I would be very pleased with him.
Having said that, the Sandro saga could really extend for most of the summer and become very, very expensive. It would be beneficial to solve this issue as soon as possible to allow the players to have a full pre-season. If Sandro does not work out, then Telles is far from a plan C. Chelsea wanted to buy him even before he joined Galatasaray, so clearly the club knows the player well. The only issue might be that it would be a club rather than Conte target.

Far better than Alonso...I must confess have been following since our summer link with him...I must confess he will offer much much than the Spaniard...just like u have said failure to get Sandro...we should use telles as our fall back option....

New link with him - PLEEEEEEZE!!! We wont get Sandro but Telles would be amazing. Sell Alonso and stick Emerson straight on the bench. We desperately need to strengthen our defense.Wanted this guy last year. Love him.
