Jealous if they pull this one off. Perfect Gundo replacement, but hopefully our captain is staying on for another year or 2
Generally speaking, foreasmuch as this summer there won't be a World Cup or an Euro Cup, I think journalists have transfert market as their necessary source of income. But, differently from some decades ago, when given news, coming from the chosen ones, were often true, nowadays there is a crowd of assumed specialists in this branch who like to report news without grounds or some others who change their idea just the day after uncontrollably.Well I hope that source is wrong. I'm a big fan of the bloke.
I think he would be a very good replacement for Bernardo actually, the industry and ability to play in the middle and double up on a right side usually.Jealous if they pull this one off. Perfect Gundo replacement, but hopefully our captain is staying on for another year or 2
Game still needs lots of development. But like Brahim Diaz. A better dribbler, sure. But has a lot of the same weaknesses Brahim showed when he was here.If we were going for any Italian player, I’d much rather take a punt on Empoli’s Tomasso Baldanzi, though we’ve probably frustrated Internazionale enough this summer. They’ll likely fight it out with their neighbours for his signature.
Absolutely. However, unlike Brahim, I think that once he fills out a little he'll drop a bit deeper and be rather similar to Bernardo. He's a touch smaller so can turn easily and has that similar Energizer Bunny engine. Looking forward to seeing him progress.Game still needs lots of development. But like Brahim Diaz.

Way, way, way much much better and cheaper. Matter of fact, comparing them is criminal.Better option than Rice...
At the same time I'm hearing Liverpool are making inquiries...he's won the league, multiple domestic cups, the European title with Italy and been to a CL final. All as a key man in every instance. He's one with a winner's mentality to go along with his ability and work rate. We take a chance on Chiesa and bring them in as a pair for 80 + 40 or 85 + 35 mil. Gets us 2 mid twenties world class talents. Take our time in getting Chiesa back to top form and provide Barella with a compatriot to help him acclimate to the UK. JMOThe only signing I would really be excited about. Totally different player to Bernardo and still could easily do exactly the same thing for us. And he has a thunderbastard of a shot. Somebody should get in touch with Edin to ask to get a few pointers on him. I've read somewhere he is not very comfortable leaving Italy.
