Arda Turan

He clearly has shown a lack of discipline and that's a shame.
We should threaten termination of contract if he doesn't buck up.

The talent is there but the club didn't hire him to get fatter and go out partying.

He is a professional and should behave like one.

I think he's a 'back against the wall' kind of performer, only rising when everyone writes him off. I think he is setting himself up for that. I'm hoping for that atleast. He was terrible last season. Awful. We need some inspiration from the Turk. We didn't take him away from Atleti so he can be a bum. We took him so he can bring some magic. Hope this season is it.

Some twitter updates suggest he's on a way out - Barto being the only one wanting him to stay. I wouldn't mind seeing him go, even if (IF) he fixes his current form we'll still only get to use him at this level for a few seasons because of his age. We might as well sell him now that he's still worth considerable €€€ before we get stuck in another Adriano situation. I gotta say from a non-objective/sport view, I like Turan as a person and his life story but seeing him get so comfortable in our squad and so soon with nothing to show left a bad taste in my mouth. Why bother getting into your personal Dream Team only to waste it because of poor self-discipline? A shame.

We were all expecting too much? Playing in an underdog team like Atletico, is different than playing against a team with everyone behind the ball. I think he needed a season to adapt. I mean Ney needed some time to adapt. Completely different reason though. I do have faith, he has too much quality to write off right now.

Neymar was great for us right after joining. He didn't immediately set the world on fire but he didn't spend his entire first season playing like total shit. And even that was under the abortion of a season that was Tata Martino.

Anything and everything you have said about Arda are nothing but excuses that don't address the larger issue of him not giving an ounce of effort when on the pitch.

I'd be feeling the heat if I were Arda.

Poor performance after poor performance, negative criticism from both club and national fans, the club imposing lifestyle restrictions on him and now the signing of Denis.

This season will definitely be his last chance.

If it really is his dream to play for Barca, he's going to have to work really hard and get his shit together.

We've written him off too soon I feel.

And also some are a bit too harsh twords Arda.. He deserves another season.. If he flops then sell him, but it kind of unfair to sell him this summer, when he waited half a season to play for us..

Sell him ASAP. 40m from some annonymus Chinese club. Gosh cant believe people want him to stay. He literally doesnt give a single fuck anymore. He signed for his childhood dream team and he is almost 30, he isnt going to break his balls for this team. Sell him for 40 something and try get Pogba.

Can't believe you actually think we can sell him for 40m.

Of course anyone would sell him for that sum.

They would pay at least 30m, 40m would be best case scenario.

Dont really understand people wanting him to stay one more year. For what? To reach his 30s and his price to go down? Sell him now for a good offer and buy new MFer.
