Delphinho123 Posted January 26, 2022 Author Share Posted January 26, 2022 We know he’s on the list, Romano said so, so maybe this is us moving on from Bentancur due to it being ‘complicated’. I could be wrong, but it makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was moved from CB to CM in the 2019 season and has not really looked back. He is a midfielder these days. If we sign him we'd still need to sign another CB. Which I hope we will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I've never seen him play, can someone explain what makes him so special? On the you tube videos you see him winning the ball on some occations in different games and making a pass, but from what I've seen there is nothing that stands out, no special skill at all, just compiliations of him winning a ball in different games, you could put together a video like that of any player.

Vive_La_Villa Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 If he is so good why has he never been called up the France squad and more importantly how come Wikipedia says he is only 5 foot 10? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it because the Marseille players love him? They also loved Sanson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vive_La_Villa Posted January 26, 2022 Share Posted January 26, 2022 I hope we sign Bentancur instead of this lad just to wind up fans on here. Also because he has proven himself in a much tougher league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only just turned 22 in November and it's France. The competition for CB spots is the toughest in the world and they have pretty solid CM's as well with Kante, Pogba, Tchouameni, Tolisso, Rabiot, Sissoko... He's played in every France youth side from U-17 and through to U-21. The height I got no answer for, his parents clearly messed up there. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t want to believe the stereotype of what makes a good defensive midfielder but the reactions to a 45 cap International Juve player in relation to a kid at Marseille who is linked to Man U has left me thinking WTF? You get a lot of quality players out of France. You also get a lot of players that just can’t hack this league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but he plays alongside Guendouz who has been called up. Both the same age. I do think Guendouz is a good player mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
