Should be between us and pool then.

He didnt impress against a very average team the other night.Was he having an off game?

Yeah, I was fine with Fred the whole time we were being linked to him. But as you mentioned, Jorginho would not have to adjust a ton to fit our system, and with Italy missing the World Cup he would have an entire preseason with us. And sure he's 26 (which isn't exactly young), but he's six and a half years younger than Fernandinho. Bring him in, and once Dinho moves on hopefully Douglas Luiz is ready or we go again for a young player to eventually replace Jorginho.

I will say, the club has done a fantastic job in recent years with planning for the future. In terms of management, player arrivals, sponsorships, etc. Other than keeping a few full backs past their expiry dates..

Jacob Davenport will be about the right age coming through. I have quite high hopes for him in the dinho position if he carries on improving.

I think it's just a case that Italy play such a different game to what Napoli play that his strengths aren't played to like they are with his club.

Must want to join united.

I'd worry about his mobility to play in a Pep side. He's not the quickest across the ground.

How does he compare to Milinkovic-Savic? Or to Fernandinho for that matter!?

Is he good enough for us? I've never seen him play.

He's nothing like Dinho or SMS. Busquets and Weigl are the closest analogies - more of a 'regista' than a ball-winner, would significantly improve our play against heavy press.
Yes, he's good enough.

In my opinion he would be perfect in the dinho role. He's got the attributes to do it

Plays in a similar system to us. Perfect. Not the tallest but he creates a lot from deep.

Put his name into Google just now and the 3 main news stories linked him with us, that lot, and Liverpool.

Moves the ball quickly and has a very good first-time pass. Has a great sense of position so seems to intercept more than tackle.

 

[dannyboiblue]

Perfect fit in our team, great player creates from deep, him and fern rotating would be amazing. Hope we go all out for him

 

[richards30]

Napoli play the closest system and football to our type imo so no big change for him besides maybe the pace of the league to start with. Him and Isco would be my dream to upgrade the midfield

Exactly hope we get him. He can put a tackle in and switch play very easily also great workrate which is key.

Plus Liverpool target stopping us play from there. If we have a player who can move the ball quickly there and resist the press we might actually beat them.

 

[bluemcr]

Yeah looks a pep type player, maybe im wrong but he seems to play similar to debruyne this season.

 

[lightning Rodri]

Anyone watched him against Juventus ??

Quiet game. Not involved a lot and a few misplaced crosses.
