    Absolutely fuck that. He’s special at his best but it’s no way consistent enough, too many top fullbacks shut him out and even decent ones can bully him out the game. His technique is so substandard at times where there’s a lack of space and time, like he’d get here. Maybe Arteta can help in ways but to pay even half of that for a player as flawed as him is crazy given what we’re chasing.

    Idk how much time you spend watching Serie A, but I’ve seen as many games where he’s awful as he’s been good, looks good in a YT comp but that’s it. We just got rid of Pepe we don’t need a better version of the same problem.

      Milan hold him back because they’re nowhere near good enough for him. If we had him constantly in dangerous areas to attack low blocks we’d see a completely different version of him

      If the conversation is one or the other, Leao is more “special” than Osimhen imo, simply due to upside and reliance on service. The idea of Osimhen is getting a little overboard on social media
