patrickmuf: One thing with some of you is that you lots don't like seeing things from any other angle other than you already know...For folks like you, it has to be like Xavi/Zidane/Iniesta/Scholes, Matuidi has his style and it's really effective... Only few coaches will leave Matuidi out of their starting 11
Who is talking of leaving Matuidi out of starting 11?
Matuidi is good at what he does. Just dont compare him in style to players who are completely different. It shows poor understanding of footie.
Matuidi should be compared in style to Sissoko and Ramires, not Kante.
Kante is a CM, the others are incapable of playing there effectively.
patrickmuf: Matuidi has a lot to his game than running, he assist, scores and defends...Kante is similar for his energy, long bursting runs and defending...
Matuidi is a poor technician. His touch is poor, protection of the ball is poor etc.
He is a good version of Ramires and is effective at breaking through the opposition with runs but cannot be compared in style to a genuine central midfielder like Kante.
Dont compare him to genuine central midfielders unless you have poor understanding of what midfield play is about. A midfielders primary function is control and protection of the ball in tight spaces and preservation of possession.
Matuidi cannot do that. Kante can.
Its just like people calling for Newcastle Sissoko for Chelsea pivot not knowing he is a runner who is extremely uncomfortable to receive the ball with players around him in a packed midfield. What qualifies Sissoko to play in a pivot? How Sway How?

Manure holding talks with Mourinho according to BBC.
JM at Manure, Pep at City. Its a wrap for Chelsea for the next 3 years.
Emenalos destruction of Chelsea is complete. It has been a gradual process since 2011. From a team that always competed for Premier League and always made semis of UCL. . . to also rans.
Perfect timing does not describe the way each of lines ended on the kick or the snare. Youre timing is as good as Saigon on the beat. Infact you are the Nigerian Saigon.
The state is sponsoring football in China. President Xi is even behind it. Read it on the train this morning. If I see the article again, I go post am.
Please all these Chinese clubs should come and look at Cuadrado and co.
I heard Juve are unwilling to pay even £13m for him. We should be able to sell him to a China club for £30m. Emenalo and Marina should get to work and phone all the China clubs
Meanwhile, shebi Chinese Govt is doing Quantitative Easing and giving Chinese Clubs wooden dollars by fiat?. . . . how this club take dey spend £25m on Ramires with no fans and no income?
This must be state-sponsored football. . . . see Ramires first game for him new club. . . . I think say na training match. . .
Simeone can't leave Atleti with transfer ban hanging over them. . . . that would be seen as a betrayal and wash away the relationship he has built with the fans over 20 years.
Antonio Conte is best of all the possible candidates. . . .
