I’d say it’s a pretty bang average career, maybe a bit of a failure for someone who was supposed to be a prodigy

Gabriel Jesus feckin' Christopher Walken, mate, do you realise the irony?
Are you suggesting that male agents have never yelled at someone or suggested that a player wasn't playing well? It's all because she is a woman?

Juve discussion boards are reacting to this news in the way we would if McTominay was about to leave. They are positively fecking giddy. I looked at their reaction to Kulusevski departing for Spurs and it is completely different. The majority of them recognise his talent and the consensus is that he could have a great career elsewhere (which is what is happening).
Fabinho? Rodri? Barella? There are players out there that are having better careers than Rabiot.
This was my exact opinion of him, was hoping I was wrong but Juve fans can't seem to stand him.
This will be an awful signing, maybe not for this season but next season and beyond it will be revealed how pointless this transfer will be.
Mainly because she's his mom, far more so than the fact she's a woman
You seem to think that this is a universal fact, when it is only true in a machismo way of thinking that it’s ‘embarrassing’ and ‘emasculating’ what slander is being spread about your agent by machismo mentalites just because she is also your parent.
Whitwell saying the same as Ornstein and Romano.
Are you Leonard Hofstadter?
No, explain it, because your attempt to look clever has fallen short. Unless you are implying I'm a Karen, which makes no sense, because I am a man, and because I am not running to some manager and making demands and causing a scene, I am discussing my football team on a message board dedicated to discussing my football team.
I’ll be suing you if he’s utter shite.
No, but it appears Rabiot is
His name is not Jason Burt, and neither is his mother’s.
I suppose we'll just get those ones then...
You need to stop reading that Juve forum. Its like a playground for uneducated glory hunters.
They hated people like Kulusevski and Bentacur. Both would walk into our team
I hate everything about this transfer, just play the kids if you don't want to spend money. Would much rather see Garner taking over instead, if you don't trust Scotty.
Rabiot is not better than McTominay.
Rabiot is not better than McTominay.
Hmm right. This idea better bloody work then, I guess.
Now that Arnautovic idea is dead and buried, I suppose I have a little more appetite for this risk.
We're going to get saddled into a 3 year contract on ridiculous wages, and next year we'll be asking "why the feck did we sign this bollocks, we cant get rid of him now" as McFred start every game.
Fathers have been yelling at coaches since little league but that's perfectly acceptable?
Yesterday you were saying he wanted 5 million and now you are upping it to 10. You don't have a clue like the rest of us.
I profess to know feck all - but how can someone who plays for france - and semi-regularly for PSG and Juventus - be worse than Mctominay?
Just have to read on here, you'd get swathes of people happy if we sold Bruno, Sancho or whoever
Garner is a championship player at the moment.
That's obviously not the point. Are you dense? The guy asked for players that are doing well if Rabiot can be considered a failure.
No, either way, I'm moving on from this part of the discussion, I am more concerned with the fact he is a french McTominay and won't improve us.
He's nothing like McTominay. This is just lazy.
He isn't but his last season wasn't good and that's why most of his stats aren't better than McTominay's.
You're correct, statiscally McTominay is far superior.
Because I was guessing at that point, assuming we would not be stupid enough to pay him the same wage as juve
Various reports came out last night saying they were asking for his current wage, add in the negotiation that his mother is running today. “Rabiot thinks he is too good, but maybe we can convince him, you know for a five year deal and a bucket of cash”, we will fold so fast that I can see us offering more than juve
You've never seen him play have you? Some people in this thread have. It might be worth paying attention.
Exactly my point. If we were to be in the middle of selling Pogba to Juve right this moment.. we would be saying goodbye, get out of here, useless, waster, etc...
On Juve forum they are loving getting him.
I don’t really get where he’d play but he’s cheap, obviously better than McT and despite lots of people saying he’s average gets picked by both his domestic and national coaches. Sing him up and keep pushing for De Jong + a striker with pace.
When we already have an extremely imbalanced squad, and keep playing square pegs in round holes...I dont know why every summer we target players and then play them in an unnatural position and then wonder what went wrong. Why not just get a natural #6 rather than play Eriksen there, when we know Eriksen is a great #8/10? Boggles my mind.
add in that the Frenchteam isn’t all that, and Juve were terrible, now he has better stats if you want to go back 3-4 years, question is can we get that player
Ok... having me being surprised by the links and thinking we should play the kids instead...I now think actually.. a reality check: this may not be such a bad signing. Forget stats, they weren't around when I started watching and you can rank players with what you see on the pitch. He is an upgrade on McT from the few (International and CL) games I have watched. Is he a English title winning midfielder- NO but we are in dire straits right now (plus I thought Milner and Henderson were a joke but they've done ok in right system). So, for the right contract it may not be so bad. Caveat is the rumours of his bad attitude. If true (I don't know enough) then we stay well clear.
These things happen with men as well. You mistakenly attribute it to gender.
