55m is a very fair price just
for baby sitting:mjgrin:

Roma will pay a total of €40 million plus an additional €5 million in bonuses for the attacker, who becomes the most expensive purchase of the club’s history, surpassing Patrik Schick.

He will sign a five-year contract with the club worth €4 million net, including bonuses, per season.

The Giallorossi also confirmed that a buyback clause was inserted into the operation worth €80 million, however, it can only be exercised after two seasons.
Inshallah in two years when John Terry is your manager and Lukaku realizes he made a huge mistake you can have Tammy back for 80m :wow:

Can you give some context to those stats? Where was he playing ? On the left?

Whoscored Explanation

Dispossessed
- Being tackled by an opponent without attempting to dribble past them

This is starting stats for 20/21

9 starts out wide 23 dispossession
12 starts central 24 dispossession

21starts 2+ dispossession per game is poor for someone of Pogba ability. 26 games at 1.9

Bu-bu-but Pogba being played out of position on the left wing.

Remember that 18/19 season I mentioned earlier. 35 games 89 dispossession. How many of them where on the left you ask. 1. 34 games central at 2.5 dispossession per game.

Taking too many touches is BS right :sas2:

At this point, I dont think it matters who we put up top. Arteta's play style does not connect well between midfielders and strikers

We're basically a crossing team for whatever reason, so it might work.

Also it was Balogun, Martinelli with Sambi and Xhaka. So it's not like the chemistry was there.

Let's take a breath, and realize it was Arsenal these teams have always been our nightmarea since forever.
