The first 20mins, he was like, wtf is happening here??, after that he played like he's been here for 10years.

Such an underrated gem.

He is the missing piece in our midfield.

He completed other players when passing around the ball.

Good touch.

soooo much better than Montoleader

Definitely.

He's just actually simply very good. That's pretty much all that needs to be said.

Our best buy this season. Excellent game. We've been missing a player like him in our midfield since Van Bommel.

What a performance, probably my man of the match last night. Just makes everything tick, some of those long passes to Calabria we're just delightful!

It was like having Pirlo back with those long balls over the top.

Ok, it's clear to me now that Biglia is a master at what he does. Hopefully he'll have a good form the entire season.

He's actually getting better every year. This might just be the Pirlo to Juventus move that we needed. Best Serie A transfer of this summer.

His vertical forward passes in between the defensive lines is currently our best line of starting an attack with this formation, especially with two strikers comfortable dropping off their markets.

Nice to see a modern DM that doesn't just recycle possession or only goes for long diagonal hollywood passes.

World of difference with his Argentina performances too, he's clearly suited to Calcio.

Except for the last match though, I haven't seen much of his long ball game.

I don't think he has a significant long ball game. He's good at picking spaces between lines and keeping the tempo ticking nicely. Great mental agility; doesn't turn off like many others in his position do.

And some people didn't want us to pay 20 million for him this summer... Bertolacci cost that much. We sold De Sciglio for 12. In comparison Biglia would have been a bargain even for 30 million. 20 million is daylight robbery

It's because he's playing in Serie A. He would be worth tripe if he'd been playing in EPL or La Fodderliga.

True that, especially that we bought the captain of a direct rival.
