  1. That's an astonishing quote.
  2. I don't think people have forgotten that TBF - but it was two years ago now. He hasn't kicked on since and I dont personally he will ever become a top level player. What particularly worries me with him is that his game relies so much on trusting himself physically - but that he also keeps breaking down physically. This might be the best time to get a decent fee for him from a London club - two years left and 26 in August. Personally I'd do it. I have no doubt there's a decent chance he'll do really well elsewhere too - it's just we need to keep re-cycling players at the fight time and developing the squad.
  3. More or less the same in terms of Serie A football. It's a fair point though. May have to gamble on a CB of that profile if we spend heavy in other positions.
  4. He's gonna be class. But certainly a project player rather than one that goes straight in as first choice. Played very little football.
  5. Was the most predictably bad signing you could ever imagine really. Couldn't believe they dropped 30 mill on a player of his age and profile in the PSR era.
  6. No player is ever untouchable at Atalanta. They are ultimately a small club (although without doubt the best run club in Italy with the best academy) and their model is that they do sell. They generally sell on their terms though as they don't have any financial issues. I think with Scalvini they would rather keep him and hope he develops further rather than sell at a perceived dip in value.
