Nothing so far has pointed to the direction Mkhitaryan is slowing down. Maybe this seasons starts to so glimpses of that (as based on age, it will eventually happen), but he might aswell be a freak of nature and crazy trainer and body maintainer like CR7. We'll see that in the near future.

The same guy who calls me a nationalist keeps attacking Miki 3rd or 4th times, while the season hasn't started yet.

Maybe you can consider it something else than attacking? Attacking is a strong word.

No, but we have plenty of evidence to show that his quality of appearances has declined later in the season. We overuse him. He does not have the stamina to play as often as Inzaghi uses him, and his stamina isn't going to improve as he approaches 38.

We need to start using him less and saving him for bigger moments than just spamming him against poor clubs.

He is 36. By the time he is 38, hi will be out of his contract.

Ask yourself. Would you get the 2nd star without him?

Exactly what I said. I love what he brings to us, he is a defensive beast, but he loses steam in attack the more the season goes towards the end.

That is why Zielinski and Mkhitaryan should share minutes. They could both play 2500 minutes this season and be more effective that way.

If he starts for bologna this season, which he did on week 1, we will almost definitely exercise it. Don't think he fits straight into the first team but with Zielienski, Hakan and Mkhi over 30 you can see how within a season or two he gets a good shot

Don’t love him as a player. Feels like a poor man’s Frattesi from what I’ve seen thus far. Great he’s actually getting a chance to develop though, perhaps he can take a leap in quality. M

Either way it makes sense to buy and resell if there’s a martlet.

He played quite often in the second half last season for Bologna who finished 5th last season quite sure we could use him next season.

In Bologna's last game he was quite average, but it’s only the start of seria a. It’s needed to watch him next games

Considering our financial situation, the best solution is to sell Frattesi (if he has a similar to last year season), and to trigger Fabbian's clause.

He was expensive since we bought him so his value must be more than 70-80mln to be profitable
