******* **** they're some good stats =O
Nah not having that the pressure at Liverpool wouldn't be sufficient to expose a mental fragility in a player. If he's mentally fragile, he won't be signed (psychological profiling is part of what Comolli does) by us though anyways. He's got talent but I do have doubts he'll ever realise it to the level he could do for whatever reason. Same as Babel in some respects in that regard. He's also got a reputation for being a disruptive player in the dressing room. Sounds like a Manchester United player more than one for us tbh.
Ya Babel is a good comparison.
We dont have a disruptive player in the dressing room.
Just mean that you have taken them in, in the past, and some have done well, others less so under Ferguson's rod of iron.
Oh I see what you mean, but this is completely different. Drenthe is mentally fragile player, not dressing room disruptive player.
He's been accused of being disruptive - his loan spell was marred by a spar with Hercules where he declared he'd lost confidence in them. Whether he's mentally fragile, I guess we'll see if anyone at a club which expects regular silverware takes a punt at me.
Udinese have some serious problems next season. They have lost Inler, now Zapata and Sanchez on the verge of signing with other team. Thats 3 important players in one window. Dont know how they cope without all these players.
And BTW Alex, whom do you rate as best defender in Serie A?

Honestly, they're a selling club - They're used to selling their best players.
Best CB? Thiago Silva.
You rate Zapata over Lucio, Samuel, Campagnaro, Andre Dias, Juan, Mexes and even Medhi Benatia, his teammate?
Zapata is overrated by FM. He's still a decent CB though, might be worth a punt if he's available.
Last season he was very, very impressive. Serie A team of the year if I'm not mistaken. And I knew I'd forget about a couple of defenders which is why I said probably second best but still, an extremely good centre back.
I was about to name few CBs who are better but didn't want to start argument.
I would say he is in top 5 CBs.
Thiago Silva, Samuel, Lucio, Chiellini, are better than him. But not by much..
And GC, Mexes is better than Zapata? You said it well, FM overrates few and Mexes is surely one among them. Zapata is better than Mexes.
I'd like it if the blue stripers were the red. Would look so much better.
Not a huge fan myself.

Similar to an Everton shirt? Other than the hint of blue, not at all
It's quite nice a kit, just too much blue
everyone knows mexes is **** and how old is lucio this season he was carp also chiellini is probably better but samuel and lucio are old so zapata is prob better
Scratch Campagnaro from that list, he won't be playing for a while...
The edging is sort of lightish blue - not royal blue - but it's still blue. If it was green there'd be no worries, but it's not. Nice design though.
Talking of the colour blue, Zapata has just come right out of it. Odd that none of the ITKs has flagged his name before after months of speculating about incomings. He seems to be a decent enough player but has he got an Iteye passport yet ? I don't fancy having a CB as a non-EEC player; it'd be a bit of a waste of a slot when there's all those excellent AMCs, wingers & strikers out there from South America.
