He has the characterisitcs to play there I think and with a bit of coaching and patience Sarri could get him up to speed for that position so he can be more than suitable to play that role in the future. After this whole CHO saga, giving youth like Ampadu more minutes is actually a good idea. Wont happen overnight but he can become a very capable back up in that role I think. Doesnt have to be a crbon copy of Jorginho, we seen he can play longer passes (bit more work and he wont misplace as many as the othee night) and is obviously comfortable getting the ball and moving it (again more minutes and coaching will get him playing one and two touch more often).

We are certainly go find out, hopefully not the hard way. He is much better as a CB, IMHO, much better.

Unionjack 7,531 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hopefully the Granny Penny Pinscher has met with him or his reps and told him we want him in the summer once his baby comes. Should have paid up for him lie we did Pully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't give a toss if he has 10 as long as he doesn't use them as some BS excuse to either want to leave or blame them for Emojis!

"Plus everyone there is just as irritable and prone to fouls as me!" plus But Zola – who is also Sardinian – is trying to allay those fears, with newspaper Il Mattino reporting that he has had a number of phone calls with Barella over the past few days. The pair know each other well, with Zola giving him his debut back in the 2014-15 season in the Coppa Italia when he was in charge of Calgliari, and they have kept in touch ever since. mccg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 So this is pretty much a done deal then? If he wanted to move in the summer vs January? Or he is smart enough to wait and see if we finish Top4 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 I did a bit of research on Barella the Italian media call him the Italian gerrard cause he is capable of playing anywhere in midfield if he's anything like Steven he will be a great signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Lets hope he doesn't decide to stay as the likes of Napoli/Juve will be after him. Need to get his Mrs keen on the move with the youngun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoroccanBlue 5,383 Posted May 2, 2019 Share Posted May 2, 2019 This signing confuses me. Would he be a starter? Seems like based on his role and attributes, he would compete with Kante? But if he were to play that LCM role, that means we are still lacking in end product from our midfield and only increasing the redundancy of defensive midfielders on the pitch. Seems like a 'Kovacic' type player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
