Like Kessie - reminds me a bit of Seedorf with that low center of gravity and touch. He plays faster though which is good and his physical ability allows him to easily move players off the ball and win it back. Think he is gonna be a boss!!

Hopefully we can develop him just like how Juve develop Pogba.
He's really got all that tools.

And this was him playing out of position as an anchor

Just imagine him paired with Biglia... Jheeez

He needs to be given some freedom to charge forward

Daniel Maldini.
Excellent game.

He's going to silence his doubters.

Montella: "Kessie is one of those who are ahead of everyone physically that I was struggling thinking about taking him off."

Damn

First touch superb again, range of passing with both feet quite impressive, decision making of a young player. Has so much potential and is good enough to contribute already. Still a bit raw as expected though.

Finally the myth that kessie has no touch is gone. I swear some people just see a strong player and assume they suck with their feet. Kessie is a good player who's power makes him special

Good game. The thing that I like the most with Kessie from what I've seen thus far is that he takes responsibility for his role. Moves well and not only is he strong but he knows how to use his strength.

Very complete midfielder for his age.
Looking forward seeing him here as a starter.

The only real catch is he might not be young, but other than that no flaws.

Yeh unless he has some weird genes, that's my slight suspicion too. Well, as long as he is under 28, I won't complain :D

For those who missed the game.



Some comments i found:

"This guy played against roma (my team) and completely bullied naingollan, strootman and de rossi. He is something special".

"Franck Kessie is one of our best young midfielders trained in Cote d'Ivoire. He is complete defensively and offensively. A jewel".

I like his second gear push, how he covers the ball and turns, and trying to do a body tackle on him dont seem to be fun :cool:

A fast Essien Veratti hybrid player..he will be great..

Is it ture that Chelsea made a 25M bid on him for 7 months ago? And apparently he said it him self.

His second half was even more impressive where he was winning 50-50s with ease and driving forward.

He played as the anchor for the entire game
