raumdeuter: Even if I have never seen them before

His Nationality would be the answer.

Whichever of them is German is the better one, not just slightly but by far.

Nihilist: Dayokanu is the only black member of the KKK

If the Nazis had conquered Africa, Raumdeuter would be holding public office by now.

Only a brain-dead Uncle Ruckus wannabe would claim that he would buy Tiote over Yaya at Real Madrid.

Tiote?

Really?

raumdeuter: Always remember the golden rule.

Deutschland uber allez

raumdeuter: Last season

CL semi 1 Bundesliga team, 1 EPL team
CL quarters 2 Bundesliga team 2 EPL teams
CL 2nd round 4 Bundesliga teams 4 EPl teams

2 seasons ago
CL final 2 Bundesliga teams 0 EPL teams

Uncle pls tell us another story

Dadehmola: An English club (Chelsea) made it to the semi finals of the CL that year. When last have we seen an Italian team in the semis?

raumdeuter: Arsenal went unbeaten in the EPL and still failed in Europe; does that show the yeyerity of the EPL

Madrid(2000) and Liverpool(2005) finished 5th in their leagues yet won the CL, Add AC Milan to it; Does that show the yeyerity of the CL.

chrisley024: From his stats, I hope he is not regressing?

Just saying.

raumdeuter: And How many times has Yaya Toures City made this same knockout stage despite spending 10times more than Juve

afrodoc: Thats to show you the yeyerity of the league. How many matches has Juve lost in the league last 3 years? This same Juve team that struggles almost yearly to reach knock out stages of UCL.

Debroslink: I SMH for man united's management. They can pay £30m for a 19 year old untested overrated English player, but can't go for the most complete midfielder in European football Vidal for just ordinary £47m.

coogar: same as man city!
toure has been at man city for how many seasons now - where has he taken city to in europe? they have been beaten bluish blackish by nearly all the teams they have faced in europe. they have finished at the bottom of the group about twice....

vidal is the truth!
this is exactly what we need in our midfield, a raging bulldog who would kill off the opposition while scoring or assisting via his killer passes.

see how busy this player gets in the middle of the pack. rooney wouldn't even need to track back again.

[img]http://164.177.157.12/img/blog/2014%2f7%2fVidal2.jpg[/img]

he has scored 28 goals in serie a. the highest of any midfielder since he moved to italy. who does this guy remind you of? he tackles more than tiote & scores as many as ramsey.....this is the new keane!

van gaal would be stüpid not to pay £50m for this lad.

pkasso: City started last season with a 442 with Toure and Fernandinho in midfield flanked by two of either Silva, Nasri or Navas with Aguero playing slightly behind Dzeko/Negredo.This formation was employed 19 times.Meaning Yaya is a CAM in theory with the formation looking like a 4132 when City break forward.Navas, Silva and Nasri rarely start together in a 4231, so how i don't understand how Toure plays as CDM.A double-pivot at City is more likely to be Garcia-Fernandinho with Yaya up front with Silva and Nasri.

coogar: no he hasn't.....
in fergie's final days - i saw tom cleverley reenacting the barbaric act of slavery against yaya toure at the etihad. which distinction? what was toure's contribution to the barcelona team that won 2009 champions league? if barca had yobo in toure's position on the night, they would still have won the cup.



because vidal is an all-action midfielder. he tackles as many times as he creates chances. he's the latino roy keane. toure's ašs is covered by fernandinho & gareth barry(penultimate season).



that's a very shaky way to analyse statistics. the italian league is very combative. vidal was the anchor of the juventus midfield that won 33 league games, losing only 2 games.

on the attacking side of things, vidal created more & assisted more pro rata. so what does toure have over vidal apart from being a cry baby that wants to flee cos he wasn't wished a happy birthday?

pkasso: Fail! 442 was City's default formation for most of last season.His stats in CAM are clearly from a 4231.

Nihilist: Can you just answer the questions we asked?

How many times did Toure play as an AM according to your reference source?

And who was CAM and CDM in united's 442 last season?

pkasso: Where on NL do i know this attention-seeking biatch? Guy clear road make better people pass.



Coogar, abeg help me school these boys.Vidal is the Truth!

StarBoard: There are quality players in Serie A. Don't be convinced that it is rubbish because their teams perform poorly in Europe. The fact is that the Premier league and La Liga and even the French League are pulling away the best players from Italian sides mainly because of wages. The Juves and Milans and the Inters can't throw as much cash as they used to at players anymore, but every now and then there is an unearthing of decent to good players in the Serie A. Take for example the Cuadrado that is being linked to us as well as the Freddy Guarin guy.

But I agree with your post for the most parts.
A knee injury has the potential to undermine a career, which is why i am wary of the Vidal signing especially for that amount.
I am in no way doubting his ability. He appears to be a decent player at the very least and I saw the demolition job he did on Chelsea November 2012 in Turin. If he can replicate that form consistently then we are likely to be in good shape offensively.
