Sandro Tonali

[SteV]

In the squad at least.

Absolute Kudos to him for taking the defender out for Brunos winner yesterday

Went unnoticed but was pivotal

Just love the lad

The pace he injects into our play in both sides of the game is mad, like, I actually rate Miley and think he’s going to be some player, but at the moment it’s night and day. That was Sandro not at 100%, too.

This isn’t a criticism of Miley, who I rate highly, but he’d have an excellent career if he develops into a player even approaching Tonali’s quality.

It’s a fair point. I mean think about how much we bemoaned having to sell Anderson? But if we hadn’t would he ever have displaced Tonali or Bruno? Maybe he would have had a chance of edging Joelinton out or keeping him on the bench. Possibly. 
But Anderson always looked like he could be a phenomenal player, he has clearly grown and shown signs of that potential with Forest and England. Miley also shows such promise. He isn’t going to keep others out of the team at the moment.

Not because he won’t get minutes. He has and he will. 

Not because Howe doesn’t rate him. I think he does.

Not even because he is simply up against full internationals in their prime. It worst than that (for him…) he is up against one of the best Italian players and one of the best Brazilian players who both must be close to the top ten midfielders in the world. And they are both in their prime. If he can hold his own in training in such company it must do his confidence the world of good. There maybe comes a point though, where  to truly develop you have to become centre stage. Relied upon as one of the main men. If he’s impatient, or as super confident as some young stars from the past have been, then that opportunity might still have to come somewhere else.

By a distance our most important player now. Just takes away so much stress from the rest of the team constantly. He is the out ball to them when they don’t know where to go and he is constantly on the opposition hounding them into mistakes and turning over possession in our favour. Must be absolutely class to play with him on our side

There be tears in Turin tonight..

Italian press quotes incoming in the morning about how homesick he is 

[timeEd32]

Not totally ideal since he was ill, but pretty great that we made it through a CL/PL week with 6 points and this guy only playing 30 minutes.

[ExiledGeordie]

Imagine he’ll come back into the side tomorrow night 

[Elliottman]

Made this look easy tonight. He’s too good. 

[Elric]

So fucking good man, almost unfair 😅

[RUHRLYASLEEVESUP]

He can fuck right off like , stupidly good this bloke 

[Ginola]

He's got everything. Absolutely love the man

[Mole]

Taking the piss to end this one

Unbelievable levels every single game

[Newcastle Fan]

Insane performance tonight, world class.

To borrow an old Ed Reed saying. 
 

“2/3 of the earth is covered by water. The other 1/3 is covered by Sandro Tonali.”

One of the absolutely best to ever wear the shirt.

[Pearljam10]

Machine

[BigValley]

Just ❤️😎

[Skeletor]

Starting to actually fear a Real Madrid bid for him in the summer. He's now easily the best midfielder I've ever seen play for us.

My Centurion.

Sublime.
