What happens if you take one of the best attacking midfielders in the game today and instead put him on the wing?

I don't think it's the wing that's the problem. He would perform slightly better behind the striker and the team will perform slightly better due to him actually playing like an attacking midfielder, but the system is what will waste his talent.

His first season at Chelsea was on the wing and he was great then.

So plug, you two-teaming cunt, how do you feel about this?

Ive been calling it for like two seasons now, the world's best CM was bound to catch Perez's eye, eventually.

With that said, if he must leave...better Madrid than United/PSG/City, etc. But I hope he doesn't.

It's not better. You cunts already have Modric, Xabi, and Illara. Fuck off.

People continuing to assume Juve are just gonna get picked apart like a Christmas turkey...why would Juve really contemplate selling all of their best players? They're not in financial trouble, they don't need to cash in to reinforce other areas, they don't use release clauses, why not simply refuse any bids that come their way?

Maybe some players could try and force their way out, but Juventus are one of the world's most storied clubs, in a period of massive success. Other than wages there is nothing they can't offer which other clubs can, and even then just one big sale would be enough to give huge pay packets to the rest of their stars.

Jan Oblak, of course. Totally forgot about him, lol. So how good is he, lambada?



Would've been a much more effective comeback if Oblak wasn't a keeper.

you can't expect little timmy to put much thought into these things

anyway, Verratti is our Pogba replacement so idk why we're even discussing this

I thought Clevereley played much better against Arsenal.

But he was still wasting opportunities for much better passes. He still persisted on his idea of passing sideways because Spanish players do it, and also they're passing to the like of Messi, Ronaldo etc. We're passing to Evra.

Well he was less shit in defence and managed to successfully track and takle a few people, so that certainly constitutes an improvement. But his [passing was utter gash, possibly more so than usual, so it kind of nullifies any praise I could give him.

He's starting a feud with Wenger now?

Based Mourinho. The true successor to Sir Alex's spirit.
