He wouldn't come to ickle citeh.
He made the preliminary squad so far.Did he get a call up for the Euros? He didn't, did he?
Most of these players fly under the radar a little bit, but could definitely prove their class if they played under Pep...
Miralem Pjanic - Fantastic season, great set piece taker, tidy little footballer who can dictate the tempo of a game, would work well under Pep.
Poor man's Vidal with a bit better technique. Not my kind of player.Radja Naingollan - Very good, aggressive, quick, dynamic, great range of passing and vision and links defence to attack very well, very underrated.
Your analysis of his technical ability is right, but I think he is a small team player. Someone who would struggle at the highest level. Think SWP at Chelsea.Lorenzo Insigne - Class player. Skilful, fast, has an eye for goal and a very good football brain. He would definitely be an upgrade on Navas and Sterling.
Like him too.Ever Banega - Always been a class act for me, just has a bad attitude sometimes. Would be a perfect player under Pep, although there are better options out there.
Yup, I'm a fan boy myself. Immaculate footballer.Oliver Torres - Obsessed with this kid ever since i saw him in under 17 world cup, a mercurial genius in the making. Wasted at Atletico with defensive manager Simeone, Pep would certainly release the shackles off him and give him the freedom to play his football.
Every to.E I've seen him, it feels like he is trying too hard. Commentators love him though. So there must be something there. Looks extremely talented. But still inexperienced.Marco Asensio - On loan at Espanyol from Madrid but tracked this player quite a bit, definitely an eye catching talent and one we could look to steal from Madrid, lovely left foot.
Totally forgot about him. Tough as nails and actually skilled. How old is he?Jonas Hector - Looks like a very accomplished left back who is good on the ball, worth a punt maybe?
Brahimi and Brandt, I'm fans of. Ilike Tah coz he is extremely young, but talent wise right now, I'd go with others over him. Batsuayi, Fekir, Lacazzette, Aboubakar and Wendell simply not for me.[/QUOTE]Jonathan Tah - I am sure i heard that he had one year left on his contract, seen him a few times this season and for a young defender, looks very accomplished, had a solid season at Leverkusen
Julian Brandt - One of the best talents in Germany, guarenteed to be an absolute gem within the next few seasons.
Mahmoud Dahoud - We have been linked with him, but just like Brandt, another serious talent.
Wendell - Another very good footballing left back. Very fast.
Alexandre Lacazette - Not as good of a season this season as he had last season, started off slow but had a decent 2nd half of season. Ice cold finishing, plenty of pace, still think he could be a perfect foil for Aguero or at least a very good back up. Really like the look of this man.
Nabil Fekir - Injured most of the season, but defo worth keeping an eye out for him, such a talent.
Michy Batshuayi - Looks very raw, but looks a talent. Very fast and has an eye for goal, hopefully will see more from him in the Euros with Belgium.
Vincent Aboubakar - Looks an absolute monster. For such a powerhouse, looks class with his feet as well, very explosive too. One to definitely watch out for.
Yacine Brahimi - Box of tricks, very skilful and puts fear into the opposition. Better than Navas and Sterling for me, easily.
Kingsley Coman - He's not staying at Bayern permanently?
Mario Gomez - Bony replacement, better than him at everything. 30 now so might be willing to be a 2nd choice
