Khvicha Kvaratskhelia | Napoli Player

I'm all for this signing, especially now that I know how to pronounce his name.
 
He's a brilliant player, but we need pace & athleticism which he doesn't have.

Athleticism yes, pace no for that 10 position. There we need a player cimfortable in tight spaces, technically gifted and with an eye for a pass. He brings that.

Fast feet and fast mind — my understanding is Kvara is an Amad type of player — whilst he’s not super fast, he carries the ball well and is a comfortable dribbler.

I think the pace and athleticism is more necessary in the wingback positions, outside CB positions, and in CM.

Like the two posts above me say, it’s a different type of athleticism needed for an inside no.10 spot.

Need a player with brains and technical ability in that 10 role. He has that, even without extreme strength and pace he's still a very good ball carrier. Whether he could translate that and handle the more physical side of the PL might be another thing.

If a deal could be done for a good price, it should be considered, I wouldn't be going beyond 60m for him.
 
Haven't seen it mentioned in the thread, but he looks and plays a bit like Georgie Best

Mentioned a few times

He reminds me of George Best

He sells the dummy like Giggs used to. It’s a whole body dummy. He reminds me of George Best (just as Giggs did).

He plays like a poor man’s George Best (it’s a compliment).

The low socks, the raw flamboyance of his movement and turns, the long strides, the deftness of his touches and the sheer skill on the ball - definitely see why the Best comparisons are made. No idea if he can stay this good, but as of now he looks like a class act.

Man Utd could swoop for ‘next George Best’ as exciting Jadon Sancho replacement

Probably more, but I have the attention span of a squirrel and got bored.
 
Watching his highlights, he definitely seems to be doing a lot of great things centrally, and not just out wide. He's also younger than I thought.

Would be an exciting signing for sure. Don't see it happening though.
 
I couldn’t think of many players more suited to that left No10 role. Without crazy pace, he glides past players and has the type of creativity needed.

Hasn’t reached the heights of Napoli’s title winning season, but that is probably what makes his gettable.
 
Wonderful player, like e Antone linked with United there is always a worry they will fail miserably after 1 or 2 games.

But ignoring that he is so exciting to watch.
 
One thing i wonder is if his passing is that good.

Every time i watch his highlights its more about shooting than passing.

His Fbref report for passing isnt exactly that great either.

Passes attempted 54%
Completion 71%
Progressive passes 49%
Progressive Passes Rec 51%

This is in the Italian League aswell where Zirkzee was the best young player playing as a passing false 9

:(

Do we need a passer in one of the wide AM spots?

He's absolutely brilliant. Of there is any chance at all of pulling this off, we need to be all over it.
 
Would be one of my dream signings but he's likely to end up at a club like City or maybe Chelsea if he ends up in the PL.

I don't think Goncalves is overly quick is he and he was brilliant foe Amorim’s sorting side. I'd think Kvara is a better player too
 
Not really sure how highly I rate him. I wouldn't be too surprised if he's dropped at some point because for all his talent, he can be really frustrating
 
He'd be perfect for the role, but there's no real links for him sadly so don't see it. Maybe in the summer? If I could hand pick any 2 semi realistic players for us it would be Osimhen and Kvara though.
 
He is a good player but would be a huge mistake to sign him.

1. He is not suited for premier league. His stamina and physicality are simply not there for a much more intense league
2. His defensive game is non-existent so he cannot play as a wingback.
3. He is a good dribbler, but he is not creative enough for a #10

Kvara is basically another Garnacho, profile-wise. And he is very expensive so - nothing about him is good fit for us.

He's not similar to garnacho at all.

I agree that there are doubts about his physicality but we're probably better off with a few nifty players to go with a selection of the classic blood and guts type of player.
 
Still upset that I remember how to spell Mkhitaryan despite him being rubbish here. If this guy comes here I’m just going to call him Mr. K unless he’s really good.

Agreed but I do think he has more to his game than Garnacho. He's only finished 90 minutes a handful of times this season and that's always a concern with him. His stamina just isn't there.

He's struggled to find his best form this season and Napoli played a lot better today without him in the side.

That's kinda where the opportunity would be if at all. If he is fantastic doubt we are an option for him
 
I'd love to see rashford take the piss out of de Laurentiis and the napolitani as he does with united fans.
 
Would be perfect for the left number 10 role.

Not sure about this. I have not seen napoli much this yeae, but from what i know, the play 433 with kvaratskhelia as a left wing/forward. A bit different than a left 10. Looks like when ten hah signed mount for a cm position. I’m a bit skeptical
