My post was edited before you saw it, I think.

Mane is a much better player than I thought.

My prejudice against African players clouds my evaluation sometimes.

AM hating a player because he’s English again.

Why don’t you lads just watch your local teams? Nairobi City fc, Phuket Rovers etc.

Making me sound homeless, or Eastern European.

Do you bookmark all his posts?

@OnlyOne look at the picture he used

 

[GDeep™]

@A__G whats wrong with those posts? I’m admitting my prejudice at the time against African players.

The same prejudice also applies to many other nationalities in football or other sports. You’ll mock an American in cricket for example.

Really trying to make me look bad here.

And players from the portoguese league have recently struggled in the Premier League? Usually they take pretty good to the league.

There's also quite the difference to playing for the obviously best team in the league who usually have the ball 70% of the time where you rarely have to defend. He's not really proven either is he? He has played pretty much half the games that Grimaldo has played at the top level he plays sporadically for his country as a CM rather than his LB position at City. Defensively he's very suspect. When it comes to his goal contributes it's not really good either. He has 0 goals in the league in 76 games and a whopping 7 assists.

Grimaldo has fallen out of favour with the club which is why their fans are pretty indifferent to him leaving, but he's been pretty much their best and most consistent player since arriving from Barcelona. And he's been linked away every year with Benfica wanting a sizeable fee.

Grimaldo is far better value for money than Zinchenko and is a better LB aswell. By quite the distance imho.

Fair enough, it's good to get an alternative viewpoint and it sounds like you know more about him than most on here. I don't know enough about Grimaldo to have a strong view on his quality but personally there are red flags all over this one for me. Zinchenko or possibly KWP seem like much safer bets.

What I would say though is that I don't really see Zinchenko as a midfielder for us. Doesn't seem like a big upgrade in the attacking positions and not solid enough to play as a loan DM.

I think Grimaldo and KWP coming in for the same price combined that Zinchenko alone would command would be a far better trade. I still think we should have a better backup/competition for Tomi than what we currently have, and with KWP and Grimaldo being better offensively than Tomi and Tierney respectively we would have a nice balance to switch around depending on the teams we meet.

I'm not the one spending the money anyway, but I just don't see anything special in Zinchenko offensively or defensively. He would be a decent player, but nothing special and we would not be able to shift him at all since he would have quite high wages if he flops..

Americans are to be mocked in anything, different story that.

Why were you born in Nairobi? Thought you had never left Small Heath.

Arteta will be relishing the prospect of being able stack full backs in big games.
