Pretty much. He's already 31, played for Lazio for 3 or 4 years and prior to that for Anderlecht. Could easily turn into an Aquilani or Montolivo.

Pretty much. He's already 31, played for Lazio for 3 or 4 years and prior to that for Anderlecht. Could easily turn into an Aquilani or Montolivo.

He would have turned by now. At 31 both Aquilani and Montolivo were finished players, whereas Biglia is still playing at high levels.

Look, he's not the flashy player that makes all the assists and gives spectacle on the pitch. But he's a metronome, somebody who can control the tempo and organize play, and a good one at that.

I didn't want him before because I thought we would sign 3-4 players max, but given how this summer campaign has gone for the time being I'm more than happy with Biglia.
