3 - 4 weeks is the time out Conte said yesterday.
That covers potentially right up to the Leicester game.
I hope this is right and not the 3 to 4 weeks reported yesterday
He will love it in Napoli, the pizza's there are all sixteen inch.
Can't offer him life in Marseille to be fair.
Then again, I think some parts of there are horrific as well.
I'm not saying they won't sign him.
I'm saying they need to be sure we're not signing someone who's unavailable as often as available.
It’s getting desperate in this thread
The good news is, it's after we made 7 new signings.
Usually it's really desperate before anyone new has come in
All they can do is make the best decision with the information they have, there are no certainties.
We can't be sure of the future. But we're going to sign him.
We have to hope for the best. But fear not, you're on record in case he is often hurt. You can come back and quote your "I told you so".
Conte keeps telling Paratici to sign Zaniolo
Antonio Conte reportedly keeps telling Fabio Paratici he wants Nicolo Zaniolo at Tottenha, but he's likely to stay at Roma.
tbrfootball.com
Antonio Conte is continuing to insist to Fabio Paratici that he wants Nicolo Zaniolo, but Calciomercato reports that the attacking midfielder signing a new contract with Roma is more likely than a move to Tottenham.
The links with Zaniolo refuse to go away. Of course, reports have previously claimed that Conte views Zaniolo as a dream signing.
And it seemed that the 23-year-old was ready to make the move. Reports suggested that he had his bags packed before Jose Mourinho insisted that he needs to stay.
And with that, talks between Tottenham and Roma reportedly came to an end in recent days. However, it seems Conte is not ready to throw in the towel.
According to Calciomercato, he is continuing to really insist to Paratici that he wants Zaniolo signed. The club are apparently yet to bid.
Unfortunately for Tottenham, Calciomercato claims that Zaniolo is closer to signing a new deal with the Giallorossi than he is to making the move to Spurs in the final days of the window.
Conte continuing to insist that he wants Zaniolo signed
It would now be a surprise if Tottenham signed Zaniolo. They have done so much business in this window. And Paratici appears to have done a good job of providing the additions Conte wants.
So the fact that Zaniolo remains at Roma surely hints that it is going to be incredibly difficult to get him brought in.
Reports have suggested that the Serie A side want £42 million for the ‘incredible‘ Italy international. And he is seemingly open to signing a new deal with his current club.
A move may be out of the question this summer. But with Conte such a fan, it would be no surprise if Tottenham’s pursuit of Zaniolo started up again in the coming windows.
That was Alasdair Gold not Conte and his info can be wrong
He said what I'd written this morning, or at least the report came out this morning. So maybe 2 games but more likely 1 as a precaution.
That's a big call. Busquets in his prime was something else.
I'd love him to go to United, imagine him going to a half decent team in the league? Anyone decent who goes to United is a massive win for us at this point in time, as it means they don't end up at Chelsea etc
£60M for a 30year old who may not adapt to the PL?
Not a bad shout.. who would rival him? Did Busquets do enough out of possession to match him? Probably didn't get the same help that Casemiro was afforded by those around him as the years went on.
Souness to be fair to him always looks class when there's an old Liverpool game on the telly. Never saw enough of Makelele.
Levy has been Levyed. If true.
Makelele was incredible.
Holds nose, but Vieira? Suppose it depends on whether he's 'defensive' enough. You could say he was more box to box.
