  1. Juventus have agreed a fee for Vlahovic so I imagine this is as good as done
  2. Look at that passes into penalty area stat though, not interested!!!
  3. But are those attempted passes aesthetically pleasing to the fans? Nah I'm joking, interesting info!
  4. Oh yeah, don't get me wrong, I'm not claiming its a complete statistical analysis, pirlo probably attempted more long passes for example
  5. It's pass accuracy, it's a tangible, measurable metric, what are you even talking about?
  6. According to fbref, bentancur has a pass completion % of 87.7, whereas Andrea Pirlo had 87% in the 11/12 season for juventus which rose to 89% the season after. I don't have the full figures on pass distance but I'm hoping Andrea was also held to account for awful pass accuracy
  7. Apparently Stevie G and Lampard were his idols growing up according to a quote from 2 years ago
  8. Smaller point in this argument is that I'd be happy not to have a key player in our starting XI going to AFCON every 2 years
  9. Hes getting criticised because people made their mind up before the game and don't want to backtrack
  10. Can't help but feel his style may have helped us get a bit more control in the second half against Everton, not a guarantee though at all
  11. Same could be said of locatelli and he's one of the highest rated youngsters in world football, probably why it's not a good idea to judge a player off of one game
  12. Highest rated player on the pitch at half time according to FotMob...
  13. He does have that languid style which I'm sure infuriates people but as long as he is patrolling the correct areas and doing his job it doesn't bother me
  14. Locatelli who is the golden boy is having a bit of a shocker in comparison, to my eyes anyway
  15. I can see someone in the thread is fuming bielsa got outmanaged by Eddie howe
  16. Grealish must've watched that performance tonight and thought 'i used to be the one doing that'
  17. Someone prior has referenced the Ryan Kent example, who is by trade a winger but was played by gerrard in one of the number 10 roles
  18. We should always be able to get £10m+ from the likes of galatasaray/fenerbache for trez too
  19. We also have Chrisene who is is only 17, I believe plays primarily as a LB and is one of our highest rated youngsters so Digne could bridge that gap
  20. Finally some sense! What's supposed to have happened; Daniel Levy just dialled in on zoom "yeah lads if villa don't take him, I'll have second dibs, how does that sound?"
