Aidan Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 Haven't seen much of him in live games but have watched a few videos of him and was blown away. So tenacious and technically gifted. Certainly the profile of a player we need in midfield right now. He's like a more dynamic Gueye, wins the ball but has the ability to drive forward with it and not allow the opposition to get back into shape. Couple that with the attacking threat of Richy and James we could have an exciting team next season. Players like him do the job of a double pivot on their own.

He is a couple of notches above Gana imo, having said that I agree with all you said and can’t wait to see him in action, the prospect is exciting and the PL should suit him down to the ground.

Looks like all that needs to happen now is he flys over to England, we book in the medical and prepare the photoshoot and unveiling and then he will get off the plane at Heathrow and sign for spurs.

Palfy Posted August 31, 2020 Report Share Posted August 31, 2020 He will prove to be our most pivotal signing this season, he will be the one that will allow Gomes Richarlison and Rodríguez if he comes to shine, he will win retain and deliver the ball with speed and precision, I know he will lead by example, I just pray he has voice and bollocks people around him who don’t give their all, we need a leader on the pitch we haven’t imo had one for some years. This will be Ancelotti’s first full season and he knows he needs his own players the players he knows he can rely on, it’s time to kick ass we are moving up the gears, so fuck Brands and his picks he’s there to do Ancelotti’s paper work and get youngsters in for the U23s, Ancelotti is going to build his team with his players and Allan will hopefully be the start of this transition.

Currently half way through his autobiography he co-wrote called Quiet Leadership. It has snippets of what players said about him when interviewed for the book. Ronaldo was very fond of him and Zlatan says he's the best manager he's ever worked with, at one stage carlo says to him 'so where are you going next in your career' and Zlatan replies 'I will go wherever you go, apart from Russia!' It just shows the influence he seems to have on players. They want to work for him. He runs the club like a family and everyone seems to love him. markjazzbassist, Btay, StevO and 5 others 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in the grand scheme, particularly with a player who knows Carlo and very likely knows exactly the role he's being brought in to play. Always nice to get a player in early but I think it's often overblown. This is a guy we are expecting to play 100+ games in an Everton shirt. I'm not too bothered if he misses a training session or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
