If we had gotten Conte him, Romagnoli and Alex Sandro, we might have won the CL in that title year. Naingollan was insanely good with Roma, His 2016/17 season was on verge of all world level. almost the perfect example of brutal attacking MF with combined with viscous defensive instincts, great athleticism, and a pitbull temperment .

THINK he was left out of WC because he made that interview about why shouldn't he have the odd drink and smoke. And his twin sister came out defending it too then she got bad press for being a gobby lesbian lol Johnnyeye and Vesper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But MAYBE he might like the idea of working with Sarri? We dont really know if the 'club' is interested in him. We are total mushrooms. Kept in the dark and fed shit!

0007 511 Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 The board can’t do anything if our target doesn’t want a transfer.And some players just don’t want to get out of their comfort zone(a lot of Seria A ones strike me as that type) or maybe don’t want to play under a manager like Conte. Don’t get me wrong,our board has failed us many times,but the market is very complicated and sometimes you have to be wise and have a good back-up plan.

PS Sorry for the offtopic Fair points, but I am all for buying Italian leaguers from the smaller teams before they blow up to mega level stars on the trad giants Like Barella, who is now at Cagliari I was all over Nainggolan whilst he was at the exact same club. Sandro Tonali at Serie B Brescia Dybala at Palermo Icardi at Sampdoria Bryan Cristante when at Atalanta Antonio Candreva when we could have gotten him on a free in 2013 from Udinese Rolando Mandragora at Udinese now Alessio Romagnoli when he was on loan at Sampdoria from Roma, and then AC Milan got him for on around £21m my 3 young CB's right here Unionjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not always easy to take someone away from a place where they have all they need. Supporters,team.manager that loves them,regular playing time, family comfortable where they are etc etc. Add to that we have never been one of those teams that players in general dream of playing for. We have to hope they see at least something about us they like - manager,playing style,other players etc - to convince them to come join us. Mostly tho unless we offer them high wages and willing to pay up for them we have tough times in getting those top players. Lets hope our delightful board want to add a few to join Pulisic. And keep everything crossed someone to join us sooner other than later! Lets start with this lad!! Johnnyeye 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,984 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Let us now hope the club see it the way he does, then. Wouldn't be shocked if they told him to just use Drinkwater and Ampadu there instead... Vesper and Johnnyeye 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDA 9,983 Posted January 7, 2019 Author Share Posted January 7, 2019 This could be a real game changing signing for us. Our midfield has been sub par for quite some time. Barella would be that real classy engine we have been lacking. A different engine to what Kante is. Unionjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
