You are watching Kovacic highlights, right?
Don’t get me wrong. I hope I am wrong and he turns out great add to our squad.

Don’t have this feeling watching his game. Always on the edge loosing the ball. Technically average.
He is a good lad on the other hand.
No question he will adapt quickly.
 
My buddy,a Chelsea season ticket holder who knows his footy....

'im gutted about it to be honest.He drives forward with the ball and opens up space,he works hard off the ball too.He also has a great shot on him.I think he will excel even more under Pep'

I would say this.

Drives forward with the ball, yes. Opens up space, yes but only in midfield. Works hard, sometimes but mostly yes. Has a great shot, no chance. He produces a banger every now and again but he is not a goal threat at all. It’s one of his weakest points. If he was better in the final third, he would be one of the best midfielders of his generation, but alas he’s not so he’s a just good midfielder

He’s essentially a first third and middle third
player. Very press resistant, loves coming deep to collect passes from the keeper or fullbacks. If the idea is for Kovacic to come off the bench, then I get it but I don’t think he’s good enough to replace what Gundogan gives you.

That said I will be gutted so lose him especially to a team in the same league.

The idea is that he adds depth, not replacing anyone, as reported.

Then this is excellent business by City. I hate that it’s at our expense. I wished he had moved to another league so I can continued to root for him.
 
Not been this underwhelmed by a potential signing since I heard we were in for Phillips. Another midfield plodder.

We're getting another Bernardo, nice one.
