Looks like a poor man's Zidane!

good player - very good player not particularly quick but a fantastic touch and a beautiful left peg - 6ft2" so not your traditional lightweight play-maker

He certainly looks good Tino but one of our problems has been a lack of pace in midfield so the fact he's not that fast and the fact they want £20 million makes me think it's not going to happen.
We've also been linked with Moussa Sissoko who seems far more like the type of player we're likely to go for. He's also proven in the Premier League.

yea but he'd play either as a traditional #10 or just off your main striker - he was superb the season he spent up front with Dybala (before he got his move to Juve)
10 goals and 11 assists in 37 games

Ah OK, a differnet kind of player to Sissoko then who's more a box-to-box midfielder.
May be we'll sign them both then!

he should have made the italy squad for the Euro's but Conte has sacrificed flair for workmanlike players

Franco certainly likes a nutmeg or two.
I've never seen so many balls between legs since I stole Uncle Herbert's video collection!
