Milan Škriniar

[Il Drago]

Kane made his name there, and he could have left if he hasn't renewed his contract if I'm not wrong. Berbatov, Modric and Bale were in Tottenham and then moved to bigger clubs. Neymar left Barca for big money, and what he has won? Meaningless French titles, but he has regressed as football player a lot. Mbappe also doesn't progressed enough, because of the joke of the league with no competition. Tottenham is a stepstone, PSG is only money destination.

But that's the thing. Spurs are a stepstone. You don't need a stepstone if you're already at Inter. You leave Inter for Real, Barca, Bayern, City, Liverpool or even Man Utd and Chelsea. Not for Tottenham. If Tottenham is your only alternative then you just stay at Inter.

No arguments about PSG. You only go there for money.

Related to Škriniar, weren’t their rumours of Akanji being linked to Inter. City purchased him for 20 million (roughly). He is regular at city at the moment.

Selling Skriniar for 50 and spending it on Akanji, would have been the best scenario.

Akanji is Ranocchia level

Akanji is Ranocchia level

but he is playing for Man City, not Hull City

just shows how tough it it so find great defenders these days

Both akanji and ake are average. They are lucky that City has so many good midfielders and attackers.

I don’t know about that. Many players took time to break into that City starting 11. Cancelo, Ake, Phillips, Grealish, Gundogon all took time to settle in at City. Akanji was able to do it very quickly, which I think says a lot.

I think it says that apart from Cancelo whose issues were tactical and Gundogan who had 2 serious injuries in his first season (and kinda started all games he was available), the rest aren't good enough players.

Ruben Dias is the only proper defender they have and it took him 2 seconds to get in the squad.

It's just that Guardiola decided to change setup to have Haaland and as many of his offensive midfielders in the lineup as possible and shifted to a back three to do so for some bizarre reason and he now has to play with just one guy who knows how to defend...

 

[uny_arturo]

Wouldn't call his performance sub-par but Skriniar looked very removed from the squad in the past few games. Just nothing exciting and lacking the usual fire we see from him. What's going on?

I've consistently been in the Capitano Skriniar camp. But if he doesn't (want to) stay, we should pass the armband to Barella asap.

 

[Ethor]

Yeah, what's weird is that Onana and him aren't on the same page communication wise either.

Brings back memories

 

[Besnik]

Barella is not a captain material.

 

[dax21]

Onana's movement is so unpredictable and weird that collisions and mix-ups are practically guaranteed no matter who is in our defense. I wonder if Onana even speaks Italian yet?

Hopefully a few words like; yes, no and I got it.

 

[ronaldoR9]

City is going for Gvardiol. Skirniar is going for big check in PSG, and also playing with Messi, Neymar and Mbappe is not bad team.

 

[sdvroot]

I think there is no longer any doubt that he will not renew his contract, the main question is whether to try to sell him in this transfer window or wait free departure in the summer...

Sell him we need money. 10 million is better than 0. Or use it towards someone we can use.

0 chance we win champions league and even worse chance of us winning the Italian league. We have nothing to play for other than making champions. While we all love this guy him being here shouldn't cause us to not qualify to the next years champions league.

 

[#NotForMe]

Thing is who will be playing his spot? D'Ambro or Darmian? You sure we won't hurt our chances to qualify for CL next year? Also on top of that even we don't win the CL, it looks like we can go pretty far this year. If we get through round of 16, we should get around 10 million Euro more.

 

[eduzee]

DO NOT sell. Let us enjoy him some more time while he's here.

De Vrij plays and D'am or a youth player. We need to get ready for next season. This one is over.
