Ok.Am I the only one on here who feels not resigning this guy is down there with the most stupidest mistakes this club has ever made.
He’s just been named AFCON player of the tournament,a competetion consisting of players like mahrez,mane,koulibaly contless other good ones.
I could understand why he left because he was not getting enough playing time but now we have a buyback clause to match any accepted bid by another club.Basically,if we want we could get him for around 15m euros.An absolute bargain in today’s market,but it seems AC milan are in for him and he’s going there.
Midfield is the most important area of the pitch.It dictates the tempo of the game.It helps you dominate games.It is the trasnstion between attack and defense.
But right now,our midfield is shit.Espescially considered to that of our rivals.It consists of Torreira,Xhaka and Guendozi.Just a few years ago we had Cazorla,ramsey and wilshere!!i’m telling you if we don’t sign atleast two good midfielders it will be useless what we do elsewhere.No amount of wingers and defenders will help if we don’t have a good midfield.
Even if we get ceballos.It’s nowhere near enough.You’ve basically let your best midfielder go in his prime and replacing him with a guy on loan.Laughable.
We should re-sign bennacer.For goodness sake being names Player of AFCON is no joke.I’d even want el nenny to go and sign an idrissa gueye or Docoure.
Please re-sign bennacer.I’m telling you if we neglect this position then it will be the same cycle over again.i don’t care about wingers and defenders.Our priority should be central midfield.
