Agreed. Coaching error in 1th match. In match 2 and 3 Italy was the best team in the tournament in my opinion. I guess this was one of the reasons Portugal didn't win today. They were outplayed by Italy and didn't wanna meet them again. I do believe in Bardi, but still I find it abit weird...

Excellent assists from Berardi on first goal. Player of the tournament. Can't believe Conte is picking Pelle over him.

Perhaps I didn't care for more stats, or I was just lazy. I remember someone posted some DM-stats before Inter signed Kondogbia. (in the old midfielders rumours thread)

Fabinho both RB and DM, and you forgot Toulalan. Toulalan is/was supposed to be their best DM by huge margin.( also known for being the silent leader of their midfield)

I have seen several of monaco's CL matches this season. They catched my eyes early on because of their poor economy and counterattacking 433(often turned into 451) style of football. Of course I did doubt them to advance into the tournament. (They did overachieve) For me they looked weak...

Using only stats proves Kondogbia isn't close to Schneiderlin or Matic. Average.rating goals assists Man of match Matic 7.5 1 3 6 Schneiderlin 7.51 4 1 3 Kondogbia...

Nah, Kondogbia is not a poor footballer, in my opinion he is a 20 M footballer, or a very poor 40 M footballer :yao: The stats? try whoscored or something? I dunno

Witsel has been winning titles and championships for years. Two past years in a row the most capped Zenit player. Before that he was the star player at Benfica and Standard. From age 18 he has been ("100 %") an starter for all his team. But forget Witsel, what has Kondogbia done to deserve to...

Nope, I don't watch russian football. But I have seen Witsel on international level for 4-5 years now, every year contributing for his national side and his club in Europen tournaments. He is an experienced footballer, unlike Kondogbia, which isn't even a one-season wonder, but a 2 match wonder...

Yeah, and Mancini is not exactly known for his grooming of youngsters into stars. Neither is Inter in general. The best place for Benassi could be clubs like Sampdoria, Genoa, and then in 2-3 year Juventus or Lazio.

or Melo to Muntari

Galliani's way of running a club is to please fans by signing 1 big name footballer every summer. (Milan fans are like Jusin Bieber fans. One big name and they are cheering like little Bieber-girls( somewhat similar to Inter fans to some extent) Mihajlović is a team builder, he doesn't need the...

Song? the flop from mid-table side West Ham? em, no thanks. We already got Kuzmanovic. Biabiyany? heart disease....nope Why spend millions on mediocre players to sit on the bench? There are several backup players in the Primavera. And Mancini seems to prefer to put Kova in the LCM...

Yesterday Germany didn't impress, but sure they advance to the semis. Today Italy gonna need help from Portugal to advance. Win for Portugal and Italy only way for Italy to reach the semi. Fingers crossed.

Rabiot is a DM. (and CM too) He is playing in that position, often in the left-central DM position in PSG's 433 formation. Yes, he scores a decent amounts of goals, but still, a DM. He obviously knows how to score goals, 4 goals in 10 starts, he can easily play CM or boxtobox just as good. He...

Benassi, Cataldi, Crisetig, Sturaro, Verratti are the future cm's for Italy nazionale (ok, add Jose Mauri too), after Pirlo, Parolo, Marchisio, De Rossi. If Inter were looking for another DM, I would vote for Benassi or Rabiot. (low cost, highly talented) I rate Benassi highly. He is an...

This was some really advanced wishful thinking. :awwyeah: Kondogbia is 22, not 17. He's an hardworking, one dimansial DM, he is not suddenly gonna turn into Maradona or something.

Salah made immediately impact after arriving Fiorentina, and was great(fantastic) for 3-4 matches. One goal per match or something, but after that he slowed down and he wasn't that good the rest of the season. That is abit worrying.

True, but remove brains and able to attack. In 5 years Kondogbia scored a total of 5 goals (two of these in lower divisions)

20M for Persisic and 20M for Hernanes sounds reasonable knowing Kondogbia went for 40 M. :awyeah:
