Vastly overrated. Not even sure who to compare him with. Watched most Everton games last season, never understood what's so special about this kid. Better stick with what we have.
"If there's no Champions League football next year that's Guardiola's problem, not mine."Pellegrini on #MCFCvAFC
Apologies for not following the thread closely, but is this true? Does not sound like something he would say.
I am not sure we'll be able to get out of him those, what, 40m GBP we paid.
On a serious note, when I look at some of our transfers, the only thing that I can think of that can justify it is 'Money Laundering'.
So who would you replace him with? Only Aguero, Vardy, Giroud, Benteke, Lukaku, Kane, Ighalo, Pelle, Costa, Kone and arguably Gomis are better than him at the moment.
He occupies lots of the space that Silva uses, that De Bruyne uses, even Sterling...Seems a bit lost in this 'heavy midfield' set-ups. Looked very pissed last night, and not only at Pellegrini.
