madras Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 11 hours ago, Milanista said: His opinion is the most common about Tonali, by far. This is true even before he was sold, I have to be honest. Even amongst those who were the most offended at the sale, many concede that they think he's an expendable player that you overpaid for. I do not share this opinion, I think he can be world-class. My opinion is a minority opinion. Also: reports in Italy are particularly firm about the idea that you paid 70m Euros (at minimum) with bonuses to get to 80m, some tout higher numbers, but the consensus is 70m plus easy bonuses to get to 80m. This is true even among the most virulent Inter fan journalists. It seems I have become a punchline here, so I'm not sure if I'll be as active as before, I don't want to be rude in my responses as I am a guest here. I don't take kindly to jabs at Milan, and some of the responses I've read seem mean-spirited... so many of you have been so genuinely warm and nice to me, I'd rather not spoil that by lashing out. I'm Italian and emotional and I'd rather be cordial. You're no more a guest on here than anyone else and there a good few on here that follow other clubs. At times things can be said, disagreements etc but providing it's not abusive it's all good . Stick around you might actually find yourself rooting for us at some point and become our goto guy for Italian football (I hit Kaizero a bit for Norwegian football tips and won a bit "yay Stabaek").

Years ago I asked Kaizero for a run down on the Elitisarien. He tipped Stabaek to do well..... they won it. I vaguely remember them being a goal down to Rosenborg and backing them to win and they win 2-1 on their way to the title. They were a big winner for me that season. Edit......15yrs ago FFS.

Can you remember this @Kaizero ? I actually remember, jesus fuck time goes by fast ? I used to do betting tips for the Norwegian leagues during the off-season in the betting thread, feels like yesterday but it must be at least 10 years or so since I stopped doing them? ?

Can you remember this @Kaizero ? Yes, back in 08 they had the likes of Alanzinho and were high-flying. They are ‘the local team’ were I live, actually.

His first few detailed posts in this thread cover it if you can look back mate. I think the gist was they are not necessarily comparable given they play distinctly different roles, but Barella is more attacking and does far less defensive duties. I think I also read that Barella has thrived when he’s had a wingback and 3rd center back for cover. Edited July 23, 2023 by Kanji Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly responsible for Villas first goal, generally seemed to struggle a bit with the tempo/physicality. Good learning experience for him though.

Newcastle Fan Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Very good that we are playing premier league sides in pre-season rather than some random Thai or American team, it will give players like a him a good taste of whats to come and what to work on.

Toon88 Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 Was awful, but it’s pre-season. Think Howe will bring him in slowly. For the first PL game, I’d imagine Howe goes with the tried and tested, and Longstaff starts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBG Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 So based on the reactions to his first two games, he's either world class/signing of the summer or piss poor. Hopefully his next game balances things out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully his next game balances things out. He looked off the pace and, unsurprisingly, not yet sure of his exact role / positioning. Which given he has played under 90 mins for us in preseason and has likely only had a few training sessions with us is completely normal. Some of the reactions are the real worry.

NWMag Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 The formation was definitely an issue, he looked like he knew his role/position a lot better against rangers in the 433. Tbh the whole team looked dodgy for the first 30 last night; it was an extremely open game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
