Arda Turan

I will take Turan ahead of Carzola any day, but I will take our Carzola over any midfielder in PL other than Silva and maybe Oscar.

"Carzola is poor compared to Turan's power and close control with mesmerising speed and dribble that opens up teams, even Barca."

Yes. He's stronger yes. Speed? When did he develop that? Never had him down as a speed merchant.
But there's more to football than just power.

Cazorla is a better player when on form. By quite a bit as well.

So you think Turan would be the 3rd best midfielder in the Prem? Jog on.

Cazorla is easily better than Turan, although the latter is superior to rosicky

No way, are you kidding me, Turan rarely loses possession and creates spaces with his vision and dribbling skills, and he can tackle and scores more goals and he is not lightweight.

Cazorla is pure class, ideally he should play in the middle being both footed but that means pushing Ozil out wide. I personally think they should rotate as much as possible.

Dear God. You have very short memory. Very quick to forget the stuff Cazorla was doing last year?

Turan's a good player. But he ain't a patch on Cazorla.

I will bet that Jose will be on his case next season and also Pellegrini too, if they lose Silva to Barca. The lad is a fighter and can defend and tactically superior, that's why he never get benched, you feel sometimes the urge to punch Carzola! gifted but very tame! he needs to run games like Silva, who is always delivering unlike Carzola.

Silva's always delivering? Are you having a laugh? He's just recently come back from an a year long holiday. Did naff all for a whole season.

Rarely agree with Dubbed but he's right about Turan
