Meh, never lived up to any of the promise he showed at Atalanta


That's a slightly ridiculous comment - he only got 33 starts in 4 years and a huge chunk of his time here was taken away through injury.

In short, if any player was given less of a chance than he was, I'd like to know who!

As an aside, in 50 appearances at Ata he managed just 5 assists - in those 30 at San Siro? 5 Assists!

Watch him blossom at Parma.

As for Calabria, will never take to him. I heard a tonne of criticism of Dalot on here, and yet his stats on the other side paste Calabria's...

You sound like that guy who never watches games and just looks at stats.

Only to compare Dalot?s performances to Calabria?s is beyond ridiculous.

No one's offending anyone here, otherwise you're also offending Han by considering his comment as ridiculous.

We debate, sometimes fiercely, but it's part of the game. I don't know why you always take it so personally.

Calabria has had some rather disappointing years, but this year he improved quite a bit. I believe he has cemented the starting role, at least for some time.

Regarding Tomori, looks like the option is around 22M EUR (not GBP). If so, that is very, very good deal. I hear is is very fast (which is something we need, especially if we want a good cover for Theo) but his defensive play is questionable. If he lives up to his potential (and improves his defensive skills), I can see him taking over for Roma (and possibly Roma being sold).

Wait, what? He's a CB, and his defensive play is questionable? That makes no sense. What did we sign him for if so then?

What I meant by "questionable" is I have seen some concerns expressed about him. However, I am sure Maldini of all people knows what he is doing :-). FWIW, I also read that Chelsie fans are not happy with this deal (which is good for us).

It's official by the way. He takes shirt 23. Could be available for Atalanta even I read. Obviously on the bench.

Tomori is an excellent defender who'd still be first choice if they hadn't signed Thiago Silva.

Isn't he also the first English player to play for us since Wilkins and Hateley in the 80s?

Hahaha I ALWAYS forget him. Mainly because he was a loan the two times.

But yes, him, Wilkins, Hateley and now Tomori. Anyone else I've forgotten?

Indeed I was.

But now seriously, Luther Blissett comes to mind, no?

Well yes but he was before Hateley and Wilkins.
