Bakayoko concentration not the greatest which is a minor problem which can be easy fixed by conte 

The following's just opinion. It could end up i'm talking out of my arse, don't pay too much attention....

You can't teach sensitivity or focus, and that's what creates concentration, at least in football. Your level of awareness isn't something you can cultivate really IMO. Maybe to 5% beyond what it was before, but you either grow up just really, really sharp, or you grow up like 95% of people, normal people, & never reach an impressive level of awareness; it's all depending on the nature of the early upbringing + genetics. It's like trying to teach a player to be taller once they're 23 
Being a top footballer in the concentration department is all about feeling, about being intuitive, curious, recognising patterns.
You either hear every sound and see every movement, or you don't. A lot of us do, and we didn't practice or learn to. Writing this, I think I've just diagnosed myself with aspergers, because that's what these traits usually fall under. 

Messi, the best of all time, has aspergers  -  and I think that's what the 'magic' is often made out of. You're born different, not made different. That's the difference between the top tier, and the second tier. And that's why being a special person, vs being a special person, use the exact same word in their phrases - they're the same thing, just to different degrees in different traits. 

Matic for example, is special, but a bit further back on the spectrum.

Still way too much. Would he even displace Matic? I don't think he would. For that sort of money we need to be getting a clear upgrade. Unless Conte is switching systems.

Agreed, but who is a upgrade and attainable?

He's better than Matic already. Yes, he wasn't good versus big teams, but this is his breakout sesason, give the boy a shot.

 

Not to mention, that the article is either translated badly or something, because from where I read it, it said we are giving Monaco a maximum of 40 mil. Euro.

There is no way will will pay (or have to pay) that much. He has 1 year left on his contract and has rejected an extension!

30m tops.

It really feels like this one is happening. I only hope we don't pay too much and that he'll surprise us.

No, not 100% sure. It could be he has 2 years then, but he def rejected an extension. 2 years may mean more expensive though right enough...
