Think of him similar to he who must not be named, also signed last winter. Very fast and on his day very good but Porto fans are saying he's one dimensional and his speed is his only good attribute. I think Sousa will change that up a bit, considering pretty much all our players are comfortable on the ball.

Haven't been on in a while. Some baffling business this window, lost Suarez for only €6m, replaced with Costa and then Rossi goes to the team bottom of La Liga and we get Zarate who's pretty rank average. And no defenders bought!
Forgive me for not getting too excited, Tonelli is who we need if we're serious about champions league
Now it's looking like that may have just been a ploy to unlock the De Maio negotiations. And it may have worked.
We just really want a goal by (half) an Italian. He could head in a corner or something. And he's young. And Benalouane would be a 6 month loan.
Tatarusanu Benalouane-----Gonzalo---Astori Berna-----Badelj*-----Vecino-----Alonso Borja Ilicic-----Kalinic Best 11?
