De Rossi alternatives or better?

A good shout on Moutinho and not an impossible signing. Alonso is a long shot even though they are not extending his current contract, they will still use him for a number of games. Sahin is a very good player but I don't think he suits Roberto's profile of a midfielder.
 
Moutinho and Witsel strike me as the two who would probably be available, but would be expensive. Not as good as De Rossi though.
Khedira or Sahin would be good enough alternatives I suppose but in terms of all-round midfield play, Moutinho and Witsel are ahead of the two imo. Khedira probably unattainable as well.

Moutinho.

I thought he was more an attacking MF not the versatility we need to slot into CB when Yaya goes in Jan for 4 weeks.
have you never noticed that Yaya hasn't played centre half for us?
Actually he did once when someone got a red card. I think it might have been against Arsenal, but my memory is fuzzy.

And no, I don't think Yaya is a CB for anything other than an emergency.

the inference he made though was that we needed CB cover when Yaya was off to the ACON
