It is a bit weird. Although reading the BBC article today about whats gone on makes it sound as if Real Madrid have given up on him touting him around and he has committed to finishing his contract, saying he won't be forced out and take a pay cut somewhere else. They are both as stubborn as each other.
A bit sad really, would have been nice if him and ZZ could've found a solution

Understandable, it is a decent league, with good technical players but not as rich as the PL.

Are you referencing the two awful wingers we have brought in the recent past?
They were odd signings as they were not even highly rated.
Aurier and Moura both came from France too

Lo Celso?!?!?
Sissoko?!?!?
Just because they had played in France it’s not the same
They have playdd abroad before coming to us and it shows in how they settled
Same with Fernandes at United

John Lacy
He was at PSG for 2 years before being loaned to Real Betis.
Could be something in that - i did wonder whether we had a contact at PSG or a working relationship with them.
Sissoko was just Levy scrambling around at the end of the window in desperation

Yeah but he didn’t come from France
This is his 4th club which makes life So much easier

Was the argument just for players who came directly from France or those that had played there?
I don't think it makes any difference to be honest. You either have the attributes that will will work in the PL and the mentality that suits here or not.
Many French and French based players have proven that to be the case and some have not. I don't see it as any sort of determining factor.

Rafael Van Der Vaart
Wasnt one of the two votes the 3rd best player in the league the season before? Then arrived and disappointed.

Attack wise Most have flopped, we’ll certainly this that hadn’t played abroad somewhere else

Luka Modric
I think Pepe will do well, just needs this season to adapt.
If we can structure a deal in a similar way to Arsenal’s Pepe deal then that might work for us and Lille?

From the stats it looks like WP loses almost 50% of his tackles?
Bedfordspurs
Mark Falco
True
But he making more efforts so is arguable more involved and the chances are because of how he plays they may be tackles in more attacking areas for his team
He also wins more aerial duels yet is shorter, makes more clearances, interceptions, blocks so basically all the important defensive stats and he can also create
It either means stats are totally useless or maybe, just maybe when looking at the numbers people highlight what they want to see

Having a DM who loses 50% of his tackles is the same as having Harry Winks as your DM.
