Needless to say, this transfer would be a huge no for me.
Definitely agree with this.
Old and past his prime. He could compete with Bona but he surely needs to adapt first with Serie A especially Gattuso's tactic. When he got that, he would be already 32 years old. Not convincing enough.
We should just focus on top quality players for our midfield. Perhaps only Kessie is starting material for a team who set goal on glories.

The only free transfers that i think could have been beneficial was Yaya Toure and John Terry.. one is already snapped up while the other could have communication problems.. the only benefit of signing both in my mind was the winners mentality they could show and hopefully rub off on our young team.. i only thought of them for 1 year contracts though or maybe 2 max.. just to help shape our team fragile mental fortitude
We've been linked to Paredes, Barella and Sandro Tonali as possible recruitments for the regista.
I've said my pieces on Paredes and Barella before, I like both so open to the, problem is cost in both cases. However, it's Tonali that interests me most, playing for Brescia he plays eerily like Pirlo, it's uncanny (seriously go check it out on YouTube). There's a lot of competition for him, but if he's half as good as pirlo he could be the best of the bunch.

We should get him and let him play for Brescia this season. He was already regular starter in Serie B in the age of 17. Don't wait until his price rocket high.

We are trying to use Kaká to convince Flamengo's Lucas Paqueta to join us instead of Barcelona. He is a 21 year old attacking midfielder who made his international debut this month.
