Now we just need a short midfielder who's a cross between Xavi and Lee Cattermole and we're set.
Shame the scouse got already got Thiago, come to think of it.
Juve fans have been drooling over this guy for 4+ years now. It's the stubborness of Lazio's president that kept suitors at bay, he'd just put up a 100m sign every time someone came knocking. Player himself seems rather comfortable in Rome so it made their job easier as well. Situation kinda reminds me of Koulibaly at Napoli. Keeping the player a few extra years and hoping it somehow translates into a bit of silverware, only to cash in later at a cheaper price (I think nowadays he'd be available for 70+). Checking out Lazio forums, they absoultely revere the guy.
I like his profile. Some similarities with Pogba, being tall and technical, but more of a physical presence and certainly possesses better mentality (not that Pogba set a high bar here). He'd obviously be a much much more ambitious signing than Rabiot.
You mean everyone or just our current midfielders? Not that it's hard to be better than our current midfielders.
yet has the grit pogba lacked. We need someone like him.
He’s an astronomical upgrade on our midfielders.You mean everyone or just our current midfielders? Not that it's hard to be better than our current midfielders.
Because he isn't here yet. Sure he is better than Mctominay but how hard is it to find a midfielder better than Mctominay.
Yea I dont get why people are so against this signing. Admittedly I've only watched videos of this guy but he looks a good box to box midfielder who can play passes through the lines/through balls and has good technical ability which is a lot more that can be said for McT.
Doesn't look a bad player at all and has the same physicality/frame as McT whilst being a far better player. Do people prefer to continue watching McT bumbling about instead?
Does he though, at Lazio he is the big boy and they accommodate his qualities within their set up.
I also think that's by far the best league for him.
What are you talking about
One would think if you really watched him play at all by reading your posts.
We just don't want a scenario were we would be looking to upgrade not so long after making a big signing.Yea I dont get why people are so against this signing.

I'll like to hear more from you your highness.
Why in the world does any United fan believe this link for a second?
You compared him to Fellaini though, such a lazy big player good in the air comparison
He's much more comparable to someone like Yaya Toure.
Becasue it's coming from good sources.
You think he's not good enough for a Champions League team which is where we are currently trying to get to? And he won't be a huge upgrade on McT?
I saw that, but it looks like it's being proposed to us and not us actively engaging yet. Happened time and time again with SMS so let's see.
Looks like a replacement for McTominay to me?
And as such, has anyone put together a similar reel of Scotty's highlights so I can compare and contrast?
And I compared him to Toure as well, and yes he share qualities with Fellaini, its not uncommon for Lazio to go long to him in the opposition box, even in his national team as well.You compared him to Fellaini though, such a lazy big player good in the air comparison

You stalking me now
I doubt that is possible.
If the price is £50m we would be stupid not to sign him. Not that far off from what we paid for Fred and looks like he will be a huge upgrade on our current midfielders.
Honestly I don’t understand some of the posters on here!
People moan and moan about a lack of quality in the midfield and a failure to even replace the midfielders we’ve lost.
Then we end up being firmly linked to SMS who is a quality all rounder CM miles better than what we’ve got.
And people still moan?! Utterly inexplicable.
It genuinely feels like it’s more on the basis of ‘oh this has been talked about for years and hasn’t happened’ than anything to do with the player himself.
I genuinely rate him so highly he’s a great allrounder at the prime of his career. If he’s available we should be going all out to make it happen.

He's an upgrade on Mctominay, Doucoure is an upgrade on Mctominay.....this guy is more Tottenham than Liverpool, City level.
Because he is. Easily one of the best midfielders in the league. The only reason he hasn't moved to a bigger team in the Serie A or basically any big club in the top 5 leagues, is because Lazio has always asked an "unreasonable" amount of money and he never really had the desire to leave. Would walk into any midfield except maybe City's.
He's one of the best all round midfielders in the world
I don't get why you are trying so hard to slate him.
You stalking me now
It's not a criticism
Just noticed you had quite a few posts on this page and thought I'd ask if you've given up on FDJ and SMS is your new target?
Just watch our opening match of last season against Leeds and....eh... that's it.
Not sure what you are on about honestly. We are nowhere near the level of Tottenham right now in terms of our squad let alone City and Liverpool.
Pogba was more mobile than him before all the injuries and fitness problems.
Really, you're just being the transfer Muppet you are. He real isn't.He's one of the best all round midfielders in the world
I don't get why you are trying so hard to slate him.
He has his qualities but he ain't elite.
Exactly.
He’s a massive improvement on what we currently have. Watched him play in Dublin for Serbia earlier this year and he looked classy.
The post I responded to explain would clarify my reason.
