Very good game from him too.

Very good game from him too.

i'd even say the past 3 games.

 

[Mexes5]

Liked what i saw from him today for sure.

 

[Shadow47]

he's going to pull a bakayoko, i can feel it

 

[Goodfella]

He's ridiculously good when he's good.

 

[milanazkals]

Meite - Kessie should be our double pivot for important games. Ball winners, strongmen, dominant in air, good passing ability, box to box players, rarely lose balls. Let Kjaer do the long balls.

that was a beautiful play if i've ever seen one. he learns allot from Kessie regarding ball control, calmness and distribution. too bad we have a pseudo player for a CF.

People were being way too harsh too soon on Meite. I'd keep him for squad depth.

 

[Boban1982]

Absolutely garbage tonight. That stupid foul at the death tonight sums up his footballing IQ.

I hope to never see him in a Milan shirt again.

Our 2nd best midfielder in 2021

[KujaIX]

Buy him.

 

[Master Smurf]

Only if Leao had buried that chip, both wouldve been immortalized.

 

[Jivara]

I won't be mad if we buy him for the reported 8m. I'd like to see him with the team from the very beginning because he has shown glimpses of being very good. He also gives physicality and has some good technique as well.

 

[helloAgain]

buy him if not for his performance then just to confuse the commentators.

 

[Raghav]

Player exchange with laxalt

 

[WILL2K]

He can stay, I believe he still can improve and we need a physical presence alongside Kessie.

 

[Ronin]

Our 2nd best midfielder in 2021

I like him, he's something in between Benny and Kessie, seems like a better passer than the latter.

We need this guy, much better than Tonali, at least
One more year, can dribble, Pass and shoot from both feet,
Tall enough to defend headers, strong enough to hold challenges

He did some dumb things in a few matches where he got reprimanded by Kessie.
If he comes in with a dry loan, it would be okay.

 

[adanshen]

Tonali did dumb things as well,
Including a dumb direct red card in one match,
And mostly useless if on court,
Meite was placed in front of Tonali for pecking orders in late matches,
Meite is cheaper and has less salary as well.

Fecking Metit

 

[Mexes5]

Him & Kessie look cool in midfield, let's be honest.

He had a lesser salary, maybe he will settle for the same or go full Hakan when negotiating a new contract.
About Tonali, I agree with you. The reason we are going after is I think because he is younger.

Except Meite is an average player that probably won't improve. Won't see any returns on him.

 

[leaf]

Cheap, hardworking, good passing Kessie sub. What's not to like

Meite is not a defensive midfielder.
I don't mind having him in the squad but I would sleep better at night knowing there is a backup to Kessie that fits the profile better

 

[Wild]

He's ridiculously good when he's good.
