He apoears prone to injuries it seems plus seems to like the ground a lot as he spends a fair bit of time falling or DIVING onto it anyway.

I think he's definitely a better than average player however I don't get the hype around him myself.

I agree with you, I don't rate him at a level of 100 million.
No way.

Unless this is clear sarcasm, this is baiting.

100 million was his buy out clause but he is more like £67 or 70 mill player

it's kind of difficult to measure these days. Arsenal paid 50 million for a very average defender who apparently couldnt play yesterday as he wasn't feeling well enough

That was a bit odd wasn’t it .. all week the media and pundits were suggesting ( understandably) that Lukaku was going to terrorise Ben White ... then came the morning of his biggest test and we were told he ‘didn’t feel well “ .

Mmmmmm

Arsenal well something is very much wrong in the squad but i don't know what, i also don't think it is Arteta to blame for either

somehow he is not the one who decides on transfer policy, that is the sports director's responsibility and who is that over there?



although here at PSV, we first had our sports director John de Jong with transfer policy, we flopped big time, and now we let manager Roger Schmidt more have a say on which players come in and immediately we buy amazingly good players


so maybe Arteta needs to have a say there

I’d certainly have Neymar in there .

Cronaldo and KunA WERE world class but not even close now plus I rate Kane just below World Class ( that’s ignoring his annual injury)

Tbf Villa doesn't seem to be doing that badly without him sadly.

I did forget about Neymar tbh.

And no offence but are you saying that Grealish is currently better than Ronaldo, Aguero & Kane?

Currently.. of course .

Cronaldo has been told he won’t be a starter now ... normally coming off the bench ...

Aguero is finished ... he went to Barca for a jolly to play a few games with Messi .. Plan B is that he’s currently negotiating a move out of Barca in the Jan window !!


I just don’t rate Kane as world class ... plus nobody seems to want him apart from maybe City so he can’t be THAT special .. plus he has at least one bad injury lay-off EVERY season ..

As for Villa they have recruited well and strengthened the team considerably so I expect them to do well when all the new players are settled.
