But seems well suited to a Sarri team. Cant see much wrong with him apart from he likes short passes but a weakness is passing!! hmmmm! Ive seen that a few times on Whoscored, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Oh come on we all know this is not gonna happen and we are gonna end up with another Djilobodji also why should we even consider doing business with Juve again. They are clearly not taking Marina seriously. Pogba, Sandro, Rugani we all know how it ends one thing I noticed abou Caldara tho is that he is quit a goalscorer for a cb. Roughly a goal every 5 matches in Serien A. Maybr we want to have Alonso and this guy as our goal threats bc Hazard, Morata, Willian et al just dont cut it up front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted July 30, 2018 Share Posted July 30, 2018 Much better than Rugani. But tbh neither screams "yess get him". We dont realy need Cb, but if we were to buy one, Id expect already proven one instead of these kids who did jack shit so far and wouldnt make our defence any stronger instantly. Meanwhile f the club wants to give CBs time, then give it to AC and Zouma ffs. Just wait as we sell Zouma, sign some average dude and Zouma becomes top 3 CB in league within 2 seasons. But sell him because he isnt great passer People forget how good he was two seasons ago and he certainly didnt have worse season with Stoke.

Hate to say it (as I was an insanely huge fan, and I REALLY thought he had top ten CB in world eventually written all over him) BUT Zouma is perma damaged goods He is never going to fully recover, IMHO, from that cruciate ligament nightmare 2 years ago.

Happy was one of my fave players at the time and really thought we had a star. I hoped the loan would sort him out. (Hoped RLCs would too tho) but maybe he might need another just to get his head strong. I do hope he can get over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
