Even if Romano uses it alot, I'm fairly certain he doesn't own a very normal expression.

I follow a very realiable guy on Twitter (He follows everything about football in africa) and he has said this about the journalist....
"This journalist is like the "Moroccan David Ornstein". He is friends with a lot of the moroccan national team players, their families and their agents.

Amrabat and Casemiro are very different players. Rather that rotating the two to avoid fatigue, I think EtH would use one or other based on his team tactics for that day.
Amrabat is a lot more similar to De Jong. Only thing he's lacking is key passes. But with Mount and Bruno in the team, I don't think that matters too much.
Amrabat is also more of a high volume passer than Casemiro. It's a role nobody else in midfield has been able to fulfil properly since Carrick. If he can adapt, he'd be a hugely useful addition in that respect.

Nothing new, they're just parroting the Anass bloke in their gossip section.
Too late, I’m busy injecting. Don’t disturb please.
Any old trafford remodel or rebuild will now need a batcave.

So is he better than Sabitzer?
Cautiously optimistic about our midfield's quality and depth if he joins. It's been a decade since I've felt this way.
I reckon that guy is talking out of his arse
So with this guy and Mount in our midfield, are we more likely to see Eriksen almost exclusively as a 10?
As done dealio as Vidal was.
Hope not, he can't play that role anymore.
ChilevisionAs done dealio as Vidal was.
Enables so much tactical depth, to go with the obvious squad upgrade.
We have to be selling McFred now right?
Romano has been getting his photoshopped images from that same Ibrahim guy recently. Don't be surprised if Romano uses the same image.
Not sure about Mct but DVB and Fred are reportedly speaking to clubs
Think Eriksen will be much more of a subbed player/rotational piece to come on in games where we have a foothold and might need more creativity.

In recent days there have been direct contacts between Erik ten Hag and Sofyan Amrabat.
Manchester United is a real option for the Fiorentina midfielder.
I would really be interested to know why we aren't interested in Verratti. PSG is open to sell him this summer.
Injury record plus wage demands would be a few reasons to avoid.
Thanks.
Hopefully we sign him because we need a high volume passer in the first phase to provide variety.

Love this signing if it happens - would suit the premier league so well I think. Would add steel and versatility to our midfield.
First Moroccan player eh.
Sounds like we’ve agreed terms with the player.
Means nothing until we agree a transfer fee with the club.

Would be surprised. Only logic I could see is if we actually are selling all of Fred (probably yes), Donny (50/50) AND McTominay (doubtful?).
I mean it’s pretty obvious ETH wants us to be a lot more aggressive and in the face of our opposition.
Good signing in that regard. Can rotate with Casemiro, or play as one of the 8s.

Why would you be surprised? Seems quite obvious this one is happening.
Stick him in the U23s as an overage player.
None of those players are first phase players within the positional play principles and should be moved on. So it's very logical that someone like Amrabat is brought in to raise the level in possession in a deeper role. He's comfortable playing the hybrid #6/#8 role and it would raise the technical floor of the collective imo. And his price tag will likely be very reasonable as well.
