King Kante 1,643 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Be interesting to see what happens to Billy Goat next season. If Jorgi and Kante both stay, would it be wise to loan him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Jorgi and Kante both stay, would it be wise to loan him? Yes, loan him, but Jorginho and Kante both here still is a semi disaster. They both are rapidly lising value and both do not fit in well on the team (as we have no true compliment for Kante to play a double 8 pivot with). Fuck Sarri, what a disaster he was, regardless of the trophy. He saddled us with Jorginho and wrecked Kante at multiple levels.

Hutcho 8,443 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Let's not get ahead of ourselves.Jorginho is actually a very good player he just doesn't fit the system we want to play.A fully fit kante is world class and gets in every team in the prem and if we can have him back for the season it's definitely not close to a disaster to still have him.

Of course, not a disaster, just want to ensure Billy gets some significant game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, even fully fit and in his prime he was never close to world class as a sitting DM and that appears to be where he's going to be playing.

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Of course, not a disaster, just want to ensure Billy gets some significant game time. I dont like Billy as a dm. I think he has to play in a pivot with someone playing next to him with more strength. He may be a more tenacious tackler than jorginho, but a major problem both share is their lack of athleticism. I can't see billy having the physical qualities to play as a dm in the Premier league. Busquets and Pirlo could hack it because they were ridiculous good, Busquets in particular was press proof, unbelievablely so. In a 3 I think Billy would be better.

I believe his attributes make him very valuable wherever he plays although he doesn't benefit the system it appears we want to play as much as some other players (potentially) could.However, we don't have those players barring Kova so right now I'd much rather have kante all day long. Plus even those players who appear would fit in well I wouldn't bank on. Like everyone seems to think that declan rice would be the second coming of makelele. Personally I think he's extremely overhyped and a comparison with kante (at this stage) is laughable despite the system being advantageous to that the sort of player rice is. I don't hate rice at all and if we were to get him, he's still young and can become something special but I'd much rather play kante every day of the week (if he can stay fit).Bit like billy gilmour. Absolute tremendous talent and could be super special but can't replace kante right now.The only logical reason for selling kante is if we can get a massive fee because of his age and then replace him with a youngster who's value will rise. But from a pure fan point of view I'd rather have the better player for 2 years and worry about that then, especially as the figures talked about is only like 40mil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted September 12, 2020 Share Posted September 12, 2020 Everyone seems to be comparing players to each other. Way I see it is they all have strengths and weaknesses. 2 of the games I watched were Everton and Victimpool. ARGUABLY the 2 best games we played in the year. We were missing our supposed top 8 players thru injury and bans but the lads all went out just full of confidence and fought for every ball there was. Little Billy G in those 2 games had no fear in him. He was a little scrapper. Like my old Jack Russell running after rats. Me I was looking forward to seeing him play more with Kova. Theyre both good tacklers, attack minded and 1st thing they looked at was going forward. I dearly love N'Golo and I had big dreams of him becoming a top box to box/ But hes not good enough on the ball I dont think. Tho his goals just crack me up/ Billys come back needs to be sorted properly. Look at CHO and RLC. Both to me look broken. CHO might be needing a loan too Billy of course would benefit from one. But need to watch he doesnt get over played unlike some loanees who dont get enough time. kellzfresh, 0007 and OhForAGreavsie 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
