Why do you keep mentioning Milinkovic-Savic? He is totally unattainable for us.

Went strolling around the first few pages of this thread.. we went from not believing this talented player will ever sign for us, to within a year, a good part of us wanted this guy to be sold or exchanged..

One year. We broke. We brought into all the media bullshat. Let that sink it. Can't we just ride out one more year worth of time for one of the most ridiculously talented guy to fit in?

What is one year? We waited decades for silverwear.

Don’t think there’s much we can do about it bro. We don’t make the call on it.

With respect a lot of people were making judgements based on youtube videos and one game vs City.
I agree we should definitely be giving him another year but this idea he was Dembele replacement solely based on his obvious on the ball ability completely ignored what Dembele used to do off the ball, battling for possession, making tackles and pressing intensely.

He’s so far been nothing like Dembele but I do think with Hojbjerg doing the leg work he still could flourish here.

Its a funny thing. I have kids and family stuff going on so I don't get to keep up with football like I used to.

A year ago I was getting really excited about signing this guy mainly based on the posts from people who I assumed were able to spend time keeping up with the new talent coming through. I'm not proud. I'll happily bow to those with superior knowledge.

Well now I've seen a year's worth of Ndombele and the valuable lesson I've learned is don't make judgments unless you're able to do so yourself.

I may be wrong but my eyes tell me that we fucked up this time. I genuinely don't get why people are wailing and crying over this player.

Let's just cut our losses, ship him out and get Jose someone who gives a shit and will contribute to the team.

Completely disagree, one of the most talented players I've ever seen at the club, which makes it more frustrating he isnt out on the training ground hours after training is finished every day pushing himself like Kane or Bale (when he was at the club).

If PSG don't want to spend any money we can take that Mbappe guy off their hands... win win for everyone, Mbappe coming off an injury might not be the same person... why risk it PSG? Sell high take our most talented player who would bed in perfectly and wouldn't mind just giving neymar the ball.

At least PSG may hopefully be able to offer us money rather than players that their manager does not fancy...

Ndombele for Brozovic & Skriniar is fine.

Ndombele for Skriniar is a disasterclass on our part.

Finding center backs that can slot in and look capable in a deep lying back 4 is not that difficult. There are plenty of Prem proven options we can get that already do this.

Finding players with the talent, vision, and output of Ndombele is near impossible. We need to give him longer, he's the kind of player that will change a season if things go right, like Payet's year at West Ham.


What ouput? you have to move to have output! he's just a fatter adel taarabt get him the f out as soon as possible. how many times has it been proven that talent is worth less than nothing in football without workrate.
