Cicero Posted March 15, 2018 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Strange how there isn't a thread about him. Currently the best midfielder in Italy imo. Will be in hot pursuit come the summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
True Blue Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 Gonna go for some big big money, meaning we will miss out on him and get back Steve Sidwell for a cut price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScoRoss Posted March 16, 2018 Share Posted March 16, 2018 I wouldn't regard him as the best in Serie A just yet, and probably won't be in Italy much longer, but he has been very impressive this season. Another player that has come through Genk, who must have some scouting network to see all these players. I've seen a few English based fans/journalists refer to him as a defensive midfielder, which makes me question whether they actually have watched Lazio. Just because he's a rather large human being doesn't automatically make him like Matic. My fear is that he goes somewhere (although him leaving Lazio would be great... ), and he is then misused and not given the freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem I find with the English media and fans is that they tend to call any midfielder that is adequate at defending a 'defensive midfielder'. I remember people calling Micael Essien a defensive midfielder! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
