Umm... he IS the backup. Maybe even the backup to the backup.

We may even see Navas in the CL, ter Stegen in La Liga and Masip in the CDR if Enrique really wants to go crazy with the rotations. But I doubt it.

Hasn't he been learning Spanish for a while? Anyways, he isn't getting loaned out. If we get Navas, the minutes will probably be split between the two, like Valencia does with Guaita and Diego Alves. Not sure how I feel about that tbh...

:goodpost:

I like those tactics. 3-4-3 in attack, 4-3-3 in defense. Alexis could be perfect for that hybrid RW/CF role IMO. My only real gripe with that formation is the Fabregas/Iniesta midfield. Still don't think it would work very well. Also, it would require a lot of running from Alexis and the RB...

Stopped reading there.

Agreed. If we're moving him anywhere, it should be to CAM.

They will. But I think he'll prove them wrong like DDG did.

Yaya's 31 years old. Getting him would not be a long term solution to anything. And he'd probably be expensive as shit for someone his age if he did leave. If we want someone like him, we should go for someone younger like Pogba or maybe Vidal (doesn't have to be those two, just throwing two...

Agreed. Laporte + Benatia would be expensive as shit though. Any quality young guys cheaper than Laporte?

Probably his best season since 2011. Kudos to him.

We need a CM and already have two other AMs in Rafinha and Iniesta. Selling him could be a good idea IF we replace him with a good CM.

If we keep him, then Tello's probably on his way out. Which isn't bad, Deulo's better already imo.

Weren't Liverpool interested in Tello as well? They'd probably pay a bit more for him, since they can afford to, so I'd rather sell Tello to them than Sociedad. Or, if we gotta put in a buyback clause, make it OPTIONAL. None of that Bojan BS. Don't loan them either.

Just realized he's 25. For some reason I thought he's a youngster :lol:

Their squad isn't that good. They don't have a single good midfielder, their back line is aging, RVP is aging (arguably past it), etc. IMO, the squad needs serious reinforcement.

He should try managing another club in Europe. IMO, Inter would be good for him. Or pretty much any other Europa League club.

He should definitely be good at developing and getting the best out of our younger players. Not only Rafinha and Deulo, but also Neymar and MATS. Maybe we could see Montoya's resurgence under him?

Can he play in Xavi's position? Or is he more of an AM like Iniesta/Cesc?

Yeah. Didn't De Gea use to make a shitload of mistakes? But Man U gave him time, and look at him now. Quick google search says 1.90m.
