Either taking them or getting on the end of them? Good observation and question. He's not a wisp of a player. Very substantial frame. About I really know at this point is that he has four Os in his name. But I'm impressed with his situational awareness on the ball in highlights, and I could see him feeding Ollie and Diaby very cleverly.

mjmooney Posted August 10, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted August 10, 2023 Quote Standing at 1.90 m (6 ft 3 in), Zaniolo is a tall, strong, and fast player, who is also a good dribbler. A versatile player, due to his creativity, technique, work-rate, energy, and physicality, he can operate in several midfield positions, and has been used as an attacking midfielder or "trequartista," as an offensive-minded central midfielder or "mezzala," as a box-to-box midfielder, and even as a deep-lying playmaker. He can even play out on the flanks, due to his goalscoring abilities, ability to create chances for teammates, the breadth he provides, and the attacking threat he poses with his striking ability from distance and penchant for making late runs. A talented player, he was once considered one of Italy's and Europe's most promising young prospects. Wiki 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 So if this guy is a as good as he has been hyped and reaches his potential under EL MAESTRO, then we have a player as good/better than tonali at a cut price!? get him in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Deals like this are very good for teams like ours…it’s important we grab them and improve our squad whilst they are not, for whatever reason, valued by the market at their “fair” price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Not surprise interest in him accelerated since the Buendia news, imagine in terms of playing style it's pretty much a like for like replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m no expert but iirc, before his injuries and when he was a youngster coming through…. he had been viewed as one of the major talents and one to have the highest potential of Italian footballers coming through…. Chiesa became the main star (outstanding during the Euros) but maybe if Nico hadn’t suffered with those serious injuries…. Needs to rebuild his career and status… we have someone who specialises in such things…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
