Yeah, seems like it.Him, Pogba and Herrera would be a midfield with a lot of power and bite to it. Hasn't Nainggolan been playing further forward this year?
Yeah, pretty sure the latter. He'd be (I think) direct competition for Herrera, unless Herrera was to start deeper.Would he be the player to sit in midfield with the Pog? Or would he be a Herrera player of sorts, in that in games where we needed more control he would play alongside Pogba with a more defensive minded player behind both of them?
Don't think Jose sees it like that though, no doubt he's eying signings to enable us to mount a challenge for the title next year. Anyway its hard to look past the next 3/4 years at this stage with the constant turn over of players and managers so getting players in their prime playing some of the best football of their careers is essential for us at the moment.He's 29 years of age, I would much prefer a younger player to give us a few more years of service.
He plays box to box like vidal plays box to box but saying he defends worse than pogba is fairly outrageous. He is all action like Kante but he wins lots of balls.I don't think anybody putting him in a midfield two has ever seen him play. He is a box to box midfielder with more defensive ineptitude than Pogba.
It's a bizarre mentality we have on here. He's in his absolute peak right now.He is so obviously perfect for your midfield and is as good as he has ever been. You already have plenty of younger midfield and attacking players and in what world is 29 too old? It is a perfect age where players tend to have the perfect mix of experience and pace.
Yup, if he is gettable then lets go for it.Fecking do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Instead of Herrera.Granted I'm no expert on him but I'm surprised people are saying he'd be a perfect fit for us. Do you mean instead of Herrera then or can he sit behind Pogba and Herrera because to me that is what is required first and foremost.
Herrera will be the one who will sit back with Pogba and Nainggolan playing ahead of him. But Herrera won't actually be playing Carrick's role. His role will be similar to what he has been doing when he plays with Pogba and Fellaini. So, Nainggolan will replace Fellaini in our current formation.Granted I'm no expert on him but I'm surprised people are saying he'd be a perfect fit for us.

Yeah, somehow players don't seem to want to leave Roma. Be it Totti or De Rossi. Even Pjanic leaving was a bit surprising for me.There was a quote a couple of weeks ago (possibly from Di Marzio) where Nainggolan said he was staying in Roma.
I don't think he will move to Juventus. He always had nice words to tell about JuventusBrilliant player but I don't think he'll leave Italy. Might move to Juventus.
It's better to win one trophy with Roma than it is to win 10 with Juventus
"Do you know what my problem is?" he asked rhetorically in the video. "I'm against Juve, have been since I was born. I'm not joking. Before arriving at Cagliari, I hated them regardless of anything else. I'm telling you that I hate Juve. I would have given [anything] to beat Juve with Cagliari, because I hate Juve.
"I hate Juve because they always win with a penalty, because of a free kick," he ranted. "I came to Rome because I wanted to win, wanted at least to try and win, against Juve, who have always had a helping hand."
Didn't think he was that old. Was he a late bloomer or something? Think I first heard of him just 4-5 years ago.He's 29 years of age, I would much prefer a younger player to give us a few more years of service.
I didn't know he had such a strong opinion about Juve. I guess we have a chance then.I don't think he will move to Juventus. He always had nice words to tell about Juventus
