It wasn't meant to degrade the quality of the players, just to show that he has helluva competition for the DM/CM spot in his NT
Tbh, I rate Nianggolan very highly. I believe he surely can compete for the spots if not win it.
--------------- Nianggolan ------------------
--- Witsel ------------------- De Bruyne ----
:fap:
Nianggolan would provide the defensive work, which could come very handy against attackting team like Croatia, Germany, England, Portugal, (thinking forward now for WC ) Brasil, Argentina, Colombia, ...
I don't say Spain because they're way ahead. Perhaps Germany is way ahead as well.
Dembélé's a beast, but imo he dribbles too much with the ball. Besides our NT needs a defensive midfielder who can recover the ball. And Witsel and De Bruyne simply are much better then Dembélé in current form.Yo Kevin, do you rate Nainggolan over Dembele or Felliani? I know, different type of players, but if I had to pick, I would pick Dembele over Nainggolan for Inter any day of the week.
Dembele is a fucking beast! I think Belgium are set for years with Witsel & Dembele in the midfield, alongside one of De Bruyne, Defour, or Felliani.

Fellaini is a very good DM than given credit for IMO. He played whole season as a #10 so maybe people forgot how well he played as DM.
I think Dembele plays higher up the pitch for Belgium isn't it? Witsel and Fellaini as CM and Dembele, Mertens, Hazard as attacking 3.
Hopefully Mirallas gets chance for Belgium, one of the best winger in the league. Oh forgot about De Bruyne, now the manager has a very good problem of choosing between Fellaini, Dembele, De Bruyne, Nainggolan, Witsel and even Defour.
Thing about Fellaini is, he wants to play higher in midfield. He has all the skills to become one of the best DM there are. (Physique, heading, power, passing, technique, interceptions, aggression,...) but he himself rather plays AM. And it's been a while he played DM.
Nianggolan would make De Bruyne/Witsel play better since they would focus on their attacking duties.
But yes, fine choices we have in the team.
Hopefully also in Inter one day :foreveralone:
Fellaini said:If I'm leaving Everton, I say if, it will depend on lots of factors," Fellaini told the Sunday Mirror.
"I only want to go to a club where the manager really wants me.
"In 2008, Everton did everything to convince me, especially David Moyes. He made me the player I am now."
Fellaini also revealed that Moyes had told him that he wanted him to become a deep-lying midfielder - rather than the forward he has emerged as in recent years.
"I'm happy with my season, although I didn't play in my best position," said Fellaini.
"I'm not a number 10. David Moyes predicts my future as a defensive midfielder, but due to a lack of offensive power, he plays me up front.
"In the future I want to play as a six or an eight. From there, I can create danger and score goal
He has too much offensive ideas. But as offensive 6, Witsel is much better
Far off mate, it's getting into your head.Never mind what he said, i do agree with him. Well, they arent NOW at top3, but those players have potential to be - maybe even become the best.
You were saying? :troll:While Croatia will face an easy team though.
