Pokerprince2004 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Yeah all valid points and it definitely doesn't bother me and would think he'd be a fantastic signing just a possible reason they thought why no big club have went after him. I can't remember him at Milan so not sure how bad he actually was Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 (edited) Looking back it seems a lot of the early flops went there very young and I think for a lot of those players the more physical and quicker game here in England is ideal or better suited to some of them players or their game. Henry did struggle when he first joined Arsenal mind and Bergkamp kind of did too. The Dutch seem to excel or used to in Italian football more than any other nationality, Eastern Europeans/Africans lately too.

Ikon Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Paqueta also explained what went wrong in Italy: “When I struggled, I put myself under pressure. Sometimes I looked at whoever was talking about me outside the locker room. I ended up taking everything personal. I felt that I had to score more and be more decisive. In the end this confused me a bit. However, it was a learning experience and now I feel freer. What is said about me does not affect me, I know how to behave“.

BoSelecta Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I'd be gutted to see Paqueta go elsewhere in the Prem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Might be harsh saying Vieira flopped since he was only 18/19 but he went from Milan reserve to one of the best midfielders in Europe almost overnight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I get the feeling with Paqueta that if Howe really wanted him and saw him fitting into our side the deal would be pretty straightforward to do.. just not sure the interest is there from us.

Me neither. I think our interest should be there though. He can do many roles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Serie A is the most tactical league I think, and generally the slowest and most defensive too. Definitely the league for greater experienced players. If I played I would be looking to play in the more open, up and down leagues in my youth when I'm at my physical peak, and then look to move to Italy from around 28 years old if I had the chance.

The Prophet Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 It definetly feels like Paqueta is a long term target. It'll be complicated because he'll command a massive fee and there will be a lot of competition. Having Bruno will certainly help out, but it'll be a difficult sell if someone like City come in for him. Again though, it all depends how we want to use Bruno going forward. If we see him as a progressive DM, Paqueta would be transformative. If we want Bruno further forward, we probably need a more natural DM. I like that Paqueta would give us another option up top or out wide though. If it's financially viable, I hope they go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once upon a time perhaps, but Serie A had more goals per game than any other major European league over the last couple of seasons. I agree its a bit slower, but it certainly isn't defensive.

Apart from that there doesn’t seem to be many clubs after him at this moment in time. Not much if anything serious, judging from the outside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
