Nicolo Zaniolo

There is a lot of talk now of interest in Nicolo Zaniolo for the CM, ACM position.

He’s a player Spurs have monitored in the past, and one Paratici has had a long held interest in.

Personally I’m not too sold on this transfer. First he’s had two massive ACL injuries in the past few years and while last year he played a lot of games buying anyone with that kind of injury record poses a massive risk.

Also he more of an inside right kind of forward and is actually very very similar to Kulu in his style and attributes so don’t see what he offers that we don’t already have, also I don’t think he can play the creative forward kind of role just behind the front two in 3-4-1-2 system that Conte seems to want as an alternative option and one which he utilised to great success in Inter’s title winning season.

Add the fact that he’s not HG and would cost quite a lot I’m not sure about this. Of the names currently being bandied about I think Maddison is still the best option.

Thoughts?

Gary Jacob saying we are interested in Zaniolo. Good
----------------------------------------------------------------------
How much have you seen of him to show this level of confidence in his ability, Luka?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Saw him in the final when he scored the winning goal. He looks powerful and ran all day. Reminded me Zanetti in his style of play.

TBH I only want him because I don't want Maddison because he is woolwich fan. Fook him. Ask Del Boy.

Which Zanetti? Christian the defensive midfielder, or Javier the full back?

The Inter fullback who is a legend of the game.

Not exactly a massive endorsement of a winger/forward like Zaniolo to be compared to a full back, however legendary

His style of play is similar. He is a powerful runner. 6ft and likes to run with the ball.

If you don't rate Zanetti i am not surprised. After all, you were convinced Ndombele was perfect for us and look how that ended up 🤣

Zanetti was brilliant, but I wouldn't rate him as a playmaker at right wing
