It's logical, ain't it? We all saw how Pogba had less mental issues in general and started performing on a certain level that Kdog still isn't finding. It's easier to see parallels but Pogba is more of an one of the kind type player and Kdog ain't. What hurts is that we actually dropped a considerable sum for Kdog.

He could be warming up and exploding this season, I can see it happen, but our whole team must be playing gkkd as well.

I won't argue that Pogba has more natural talent than Kondogbia. However, I think you're giving him way to much credit for his mentality. I think it's obvious that just about every young talent we have signed over the last 5 years has struggled. I don't think it's down to them all being mentally weaker than Pogba for example. I think it comes down to the fact Inter hasn't been a positive environment and Juventus has.

It's a lot easier to avoid mental issues when 1) You're signed for free 2) Your team is winning the league every year and 3) You aren't even expected to be a starter. It's obviously much easier for a player to develop in these circumstances.

I think no one is rly mad about him being on a lower level than Pogba,at lest not me,I never ever compared him to Pogba,he ain't even the same kind of player when it comes to it.
I'm pissed of how he can make crazy neckbraking dribbles but then overdoes it with an overambitious pass that the opposition intercepts with ease or a simple pass that is under hit and we have the same result...His passing lately is garbage,that of an amateur tbh
We overpay for everyone this days,and not just Inter,everyone's price is overinflated now...

Here is the thing bevore he joined inter his passing was way better. I mean he never was a guy who played them long balls and through passes all game but he usually kept it simple and made few mistakes. Now somehow since he joined inter his passing has been very very poor and he regularly fucks up passes that should be easy for him.
Now i refused to believe that the 3 years at Monaco and sevilla were a fluke, i much rather think that he did not manage to play at his best for inter yet. I m not sure why he s passing has been so piss poor, maybe mancini asked to much of him (passing wise), maybe it was just the disfuctional team or the augmented pressure he has here.
Anyways i hope he can turn things around and return to his usual self.
Mancini brainwashed him with Yaya Toure videos 24/7.

i don't think he is bad as we think , he need adaption with new teammates and De Boer tactics.
Banega only come this season , and Medel had adaptation new role in De Boer tactics, not as DM anymore.

Give him three or four match and if he shit , we free to judge or label him as shit player or flop :awyeah:

I think Kondogbia's skills fit a counter-attacking system much better than what De Boer's trying to implement. I hope I'm wrong, but I see Kondogbia behind Brozovic and Gnoukouri for a spot.

Dont even go there, how dare you put passing and Pirlo in the same sentence as Kondogbia.

Swap Pirlo with Muntari would be far more suitable.

Yeah that guy Gaebba is the best Serie A youtuber hands down. Good comps that show more than just goals & assists. Also does a lot of the lesser known young players in the league.

Talented for sure and can become huge player. But at the moment as you can see also in this video his best touches are ineffective. His is always looking for dribble or making couple fancy touches to the ball. What he should do is keep his head up and look where he can pass the ball with one or two touches when receiving the ball.

He is not Pirlo or Motta and don't need to be but those two always know where to play the ball even before they received it.

Beating Cleverly, Rooney and someone who I didn't catch lunging into tackles shouldn't be the gold standard of midfielders.

I like Kondogbia, especially because it's difficult to find someone of his size and strength that also has such good close ball control. I trust De Boer will help improve his passing, positioning and decision making, and maybe define his position on the field a little more, but all in all I still believe we could have something special in him :D Just hope he gets as much time as he needs, truly unfortunate he had to be left out of the EL list.

The third guy was one of the Brazilian twin fullbacks I think.

Rated 76 in the Fifa 17 demo..

I expect this guy to be reviled before the seasons done, as it becomes evidently clearly just how shit he is now that he's surrounded by players who aren't. He is Thorir's marquee signing and just a testament to how little Thorir actually knows about football and just how this man was willing to take this club to please Mancini.

He's basically a 15 million euro at best player that we for some bizarre reason spent a shit ton of money on, and now we want to sell him but can't because no one is dumb enough to pay anything close to what we did. Thank god we're rich enough to tolerate this nonsense

Just gotta accept we fucked up with this signing and move on. There is no point in giving him a starting place and try to turn him into something he's not.

He's good enough to be a squad player. Give him play time and try to stick him to some British team for 20 mill or something.
