I wonder how many red cards he would get playing for inter?
I think he would be an upgrade to our defense but i dont think it would be the smartest move to do.
What options should we put?
Do you want Pepe?
Yes, his experience is useful for a backline that has won fuck all and look clueless at times.
He hasn't gotten a red card in five years. Despite his reputation he's a smart and generally clean tackler. Too old to come here to be honest but maybe he'll help in the locker room.
+1 he seems more secure and could do well in Italy. Competition is healthy and I'm sure we'll bring in another starter [like Manolas/Rudiger].Old school defender so I approve actualy...this new defenders are mostly sissy dolls
If you loved Matrix you will love Pepe tok he is 34 but he is an experienced defender and those do rather well in Italy.
He was leading Portugal very well in the Euros I thought,very composed not nervous like in the past
He is certainly better than Medel or Murillo
Miranda-Pepe is pretty much Lucio-Samuel like tbh...
Comparisons with Vidic are spot on. Comparisons with Felipe Melo are also spot on.
Come on, Suning, this ain't the time to be cheap getting Pepe on a Bosman, spend your damn 150 million!
How are these comparisons 'spot on'? Firstly, Vidic had to play in a three-men defence and was injured very often. Second, Pepe isn't (by far) the dirty player who many people think he is. Melo on the other hand is.
