He should play away from matches.

Willian is a player that’s great in the 2nd third of the pitch, bringing the ball into the final third. After that though his brain freezes. He didn't destroy anything imo because he literally just wa

Says all the right things and appears to be a good club presence. 

Not to mention, comes into the team unfit, no preseason, and off an injury and puts in a gritty performance. Certainly wasn't his best, but added the physicality we needed, and made the experienced physical Spurs midfield look like children at times. Not an easy thing to do. 

Seems to be a really tidy dribbler as well. Whipped out some nice moves.

I understand Conte's Love for Footballing Building Workers.

Bakayoko is such a Player. No Touch, No Vision, but a hard Labourer, willing to bury himself into the ground for the team until his Tongue hangs loose.

I think half of the Time against Everton he's been laying flat on the Ground, which shows his physical commitment.

It's just one Match, but a wise signing so far in my mind.

Yeah, he is a far better runner and dribbler than Matic. 

 

Away with you.

Bakayoko is not even the D of the Dribbler that Matic is.

Matic is a fleet-footed Marshall of the Game while Bakayoko is a stomping Labourer.

Both Players have their Qualities. Matic is gone and not even worth mentioning.

Bakayoko is here. A good signing so far and I hope Conte solves the Linup Puzzle before the Season turns into that delicate Phase where every single Point counts.

It goes like this I think:1. Messi 2. Hazard 3. Verratti/Isco 4. Neymar 5. Matić ... 55. Bakayoko

I so much totally agree!

I can't believe how lucky we are to have upgraded our midfield so greatly in just one transfer window. Both Danny and Baka are so much better than Matic it does not reall seem right to call them replacements. They offer so much more in terms of skill, movement, passing and dribbling that I expect our game to become much more fluent. Also we can counter more efficiently now as less balls will get directly lost again because of Matics wayward touches and inaccurate passing. There is no more slowing the game down because of his one sidedness but more Danny or Baka carrying the ball forward with their decisive runs. Also I think we will concede less needless fouls because some Serbian beanpole sticks out his twiggy legs to hurt people with his pointy bones.

Upgrade? I'm sorry but how can you say we've upgraded on someone who was key to both our title wins in the last three years with Bakayoko who has played maybe 120 minutes of football for Chelsea? Just severely insane to even consider that, also on Drinkwater too I don't see him as a huge improvement on Nathaniel Chalobah like some are saying, yet alone even being close to Matic.

Matic was one of the midfielders in our squad who would play the ball forward quick, far quicker than Mikel, Romeu, Kante, Meireles, Essien and whoever else has played in that sort of deeper MF role in the last 5 years. It's no surprise Matic is already a key figure at United, he has freed up Pogba and given United a solid base in MF and I fear that we made a huge mistake selling him to a rival. 

Fair enough Bakayoko is a good player with potential but to say we've upgraded on somebody who was extremely key to both our title successes in the last 3 years, without him having played more than one full game, is ludicrous by all accounts. Kante got all the plaudits last year but the "wayward, inaccurate and slow" partner he had next to him was equally good I thought, playing to the standards he showed when he arrived back from Benfica. The rumour was that Conte didnt even want to sell him at all never mind to Man United.
