He hasnt done anything out of the ordinary either.

Completely pedestrian player imo.

He's the left-sided version of Darmian and has surprised me with what a good actual defender he is. I think it was easy to get a bit thrown by what to expect from him when his goals and assists were really strong in his last Monza season, yet we have seen next to nothing from him in a dynamic, attacking sense.

In some ways it's good to have a mix of styles at wing-back with a more defensive and a more attacking option on either side, however as there are so few goals from midfield then I think this puts more attacking onus on the wing backs and the only remotely reliable option there is out of the five in the squad is Di Marco.

Dumfries is benched permanently by Darmian now. Only started twice this season. We really need an upgrade over him. It will not take long for Frimpong to start over him in the Dutch NT. Giving him an extension at 4 mln a season means we ar stuck with him for the coming years. I’m honestly in doubt if it isn’t better to let him go for free coming summer at this stage.

I'd be inclined to agree, however I think from a squad building perspective you don't want to have to change both players in a particular position in the same summer. This probably should be Darmian's last useful season so they will need a new RWB and Dumfries for continuity.

Yeah. But on the other hand; apperently Darmian is a better option nowdays. And we ain’t gonna get a rwb starter when Dumfries is earning 4 mln. That’s not a salary we are giving to back-up options.

I'm wondering is this the reason the contract has still pending and not signed?

And/or has Oaktree something to do with this situation?

“I hope the Inter renewal will be completed as soon as possible. It seems like a good deal, and I hope to sign it soon,” Dumfries said, as quoted by SOS Fanta.

“I haven’t played much, so I haven’t extended yet. Obviously, I want to play more, and I am focused on getting more playing time. Luckily, I played a bit more recently, but Darmian is a tough competitor in that role.”
LOL is he trying to ransom the club? 😆

How is that ransom the club? It is kind of important for him to know where he is in inzaghis/Inters plans before he signs for another 4 years no?
Like if i was in his position i would also like to know wether the club and coach look at darmian as a sure starter or not....
Even most of this forum is surprised by how little playing time he s getting this season...

it's like a big secret for some of you that Denzcel wanted 5 but settled for 4. And no. Darmian not better on offensive or defensive end,

Bringing up goal and assist when talking about defense contribution, makes perfect sense.

Corriere wrote that the parties are discussing the bonuses these days. Those are the only details missing.

After seeing the highlights, I don't want to fault him for any goals (I know two goals came from his side) + he also scored a goal. He is just unlucky. Yildiz looks like a beast

Then why he is not closing Yildiz when there is Bisseck behind him, why to accompany him to goal?

The second one was not his fault, that was our midfielders disaster, 6 vs 2.

He won a penalty and scored a goal. It's strange to blame him, when our right side stopped working since Bisseck came in.
For he was decent. One of the few.
