Fair list. Prob add in Jorginho? Had his critics but had a brilliant couple of years at Chelsea and been alright at Arsenal. Cudicini is prob another Pelle for saints had a decent spell.
Pelle is interesting as he had a better career after leaving England. Cudicini was **** Jorginho is a fun one cos you have to ask yourself does moving to Italy at 15 make out an Italian style player or a Brazilian style player who learned his trade in Italy? I don't really know.
It's also worth mentioning that Bergkamp wasn't exactly a success in Italy. He was considered a bit of a flop, but clearly found his feet in the Prem. Same for Henry, he also played more as a winger in Italy.
Yeah there's a very rigid type of game in Italy thst these players either suit or don't and creative players thrive in England cos there's poor tactics. Italy has always been known as tactics over everything so the Baggio and z9oa types are very rare
He was meh. Plenty of gaffes too. Look, he was a reserve to cech and that was never easy thing to be but he wasn't that good
I'm loving the city whinging about dark places after a couple of reverses. Let's see what you are made of pep.
Indeed. Most people were questioning why Chelsea were buying a new keeper when the one they had was probably in the top 2 or 3 in the league a the time.
Mings just picked the ball up after Martinez passed him the ball from a GK and gave away a pen Arsenal did same last year v Bayern but some reason ref and var bottled giving it that time.
No they didn’t? Only 2 maybe rotated were digne and torres on bench for min gd and maatsan. Rest is their 1st 11
Still rotation, no? I didn't say second 11. It was a nice heavy wet pitch amd day and an away trio so we should have a slight advantage from it. We I think have chosen tsimikas as a favoured lb right now so diaz for nunrz was thr only shock.
