Ineffective.

He's bang average and always flatters to deceive. He is quite toothless too, does the flashy parts reasonably but is ultimately toothless. If we buy him then we are desperate to follow the footsteps of Milan which went from a great side to a rank average, over the hill shipping boys. Please...

Do us all a fabour and bench Pique but I doubt Valverde has the balls to drop him.

Varane is probably faster than him from what I've seen but it's probably close.

He's far better than Busquets off the ball but Busquets is far better on it. I guess it's what you prefer but I was a huge fan of Mascherano in the midfield but Barca hardly played him there.

Off the ball yes but then so was Mascherano but he apparently never had the Barca DNA to play there.

I said around a year ago I don't see what the deal is with this guy apart from some tap-ins here and there and he confirmed. He is quite skilful but not a dribbler and his finishing is average unless from very close range.

Too late now Juve have signed him but I've always rated him highly. Destroys defenders in one v one duels, is very direct and works very hard.

Well I think others also think the same https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44716774

They're on a mission to replicate Milan's fall from grace, have the perfect manager to implement their vision.

Willian for free I would politely decline, he would ask for a big pay check which has already spiralled out of control. Paying a fee for him is ludicrous, he's ageing and whilst he's easy on the eye he's a largely ineffective player. For the love of God it's time to nurture our youngsters and...

You can't compare him to Dogba who served a different purpose. The only few players I can think of are Shearer and Lewa I suppose, possibly Batigol. Anyway, I think he's been making the most of the grappling in the box when under closer scrutiny it's clear it's six off one and half a dozen of...

Why is it that defenders only foul him? Maybe if you take off the 'English media' tinted glasses and look at it closely maybe he is making a meal of everything and if it was an opposition forward doing it to their defenders they would be accusing him diving.

The media would tell you they are playing the beautiful game.

Yes and I think has Kane has similar attributes although inferior imo.

He's like Shearer if anything, nothing spectacular and relies heavily on service.

Haha had to laugh too.

What did he actually do apart from scoring a pen? He hustles, is strong as an ox and generally reminds me of an Alan Shearer type but seems to lack a yard of pace to scare the opposition. I also think he instigates the fouls in the penalty area to get penalty by holding the defender but hey, the...

Oh please nooo...Are we that desperate to emulate the oldies of Milan? We are gonna get slaughtered in the CL for the foreseeable future.

Matte I can't stand his shenanigans but he did turn up. The goal he scored he started, after his back heel he didn't wander around he carried on running and got rewarded. These are the fine margins that win u games at this level.
