In terms of midfield that would solve a lot of the issues eith having Bennacer at anchor:thumbsup:
Having a CAM is nice too though, especially with someone like Giroud who can creat for a CAM or SS playing off him.

I prefer that flat three man midfield with a false nine up top. Either side midfielder can transform into an AM during the attacking phase. Another possibility is that the false nine can drop deep and the midfielders and wingers can attack the free space.

A very good deal, although I wish the release clause would be in the 75 million euro region.
50m release clause, he's gone in a year.
50mil would make him the second highest transfer of an algerian player behind mahrez. it's a reasonable fee imo. i doubt any club would pay more.

Right now I don’t see anyone paying 50m for Ben. In any case it will be enough money to replace him

So, Theo, Tomori, Kalulu, and Bennacer have renewed. Amazing work by our management. They have ensured our nucleus remains intact without spending a hefty sum. Good stuff.

The release clause is a bummer, should’ve got rid of that
Its obviously important to him and its better than what has happened in the past.
- At the bare minimum we shouldnt have to fret about him walking for free like the others

They have yet to have a problem with a player they themselves signed. Leao is a special case because of his fine attached to him, but we’ll see. But the only players people whined about leaving were not players Maldini signed, they were on contracts from past management. Gets overlooked on here.

Yes, this is just it. I don’t take these renewals as the players will stay until 2027; only that we are not at a disadvantage if we have to sell.

For example, if Leao renews, I only see him with us until 2025.

Also seems Rafa is close

I think Sam and Brk have made that point multiple times.

This Bennacer deal was looking to not follow that trend but it proved out too.
