I really like Diawara - we really missed a trick here, available for fucking peanuts in the summer.
I only caught a bit of the game, going to try and watch the rest tomorrow, completed the most passes on the pitch tonight 59/62 (96%), not bad for a DM/Cm playing in a double pivot against Juve.

I've also mentioned this kid a few times, but watched the PSG/Monaco game tonight and Fodo Ballo-Toure (LB 23yo) continues to impress me.
Two medicals booked this week, don't get excited we have a lot of injured players who also sometimes go for third party evaluations ... but fingers crossed.
Gedson and who?
Eriksen going to inter is such a sideways move. We could give him the Same wages. Inter are shit in Europe. Don’t understand
Imagine if we sold him in 2018 and bought players.
The player I have wanted for ages.
I hope I'm wrong but I'll be really surprised if he leaves this month.
From the club's perspective, obviously it's far better him leaving for something now, than nothing in 6 months. But from his perspective, he'd make a lot more money pulling off an Aaron Ramsey type deal and get himself a girthy signing-on fee/higher salary due to prospective clubs not having to pay a transfer fee.
And yeah. Inter aren't a step up. I just think he knows he's not getting his dream move to Madrid because he's turned shite and he thinks he's burned bridges with the fans and has no choice but to leave. Milan is a nice place. Weather is decent. Culture is alright. Maybe he likes pizza a lot. Standard in Serie A is well below Premier League (overall), so maybe he thinks he'll look a better player. Fuck knows.
bus-conductor
he is so god damn calm on the ball. Watching the game now and man Juve got a jump.Demiral looks to be done for the year?
Edit: and Demiral walks it off.
this game is pedal to the metal
We didn't know that Poch's painful rebuild speech wasn't one of his weird rambling analogies about cows on the train tracks or some crap. The fans would have been livid.
Same, beyond me why Eriksen has ruined his career and legacy like this. Would've understood it if it was Real or Barca, but fucking Inter in what should be his peak years as a footballer? It's a joke
It's not sideways. It's a clear step back.
Has to get his GF as far away from Jan as possible. I kid.
I understand the desire to go somewhere new. He has been here for awhile now and the time is clearly now. He has checked out.
You're probably right. It's a shame he's departing in such a manner though.
Imagine if we sold him in 2018 and didn't quality for the champions league - let alone make the final.
Eriksen was directly involved in just under half of all our goals scored.
He's on in footballing terms peanuts - if he moves now he probably picks up an extra 200k a week for 6 months that's 5 million in his pocket ... he wins either way.
If he stays he's going to have a very unpleasant six months, booed on the pitch or simply not playing ... best for all that he moves on now. Inter, Madrid pretty much anywhere but WHL.
A step back?
In the last 10 years Inter have won Serie A, Coppa Italia (twice) and Champions League.
They have built a strong squad with the likes of Lukaku, Sanchez, Godin, Babosa and are probably more likely to win a trophy than Spurs.
Good riddance. He'll be quality at Inter and won't have to work half as hard, and maybe Lo Celso will finally get a few starts.
Bless his heart. Whatever makes him feel better
