I thought his covering was exceptional - everytime one of the CBs stepped out, or the fullbacks got pulled out tracking a runner he was straight in the gap. Looks really disciplined and tactically aware.
Starting to hope we get this midget axis of Banega-Torreira sorted pronto....
Lucas Torreira after the game:
"I had cramp in both legs in the last few minutes, but I couldn't stay down, I had to continue. We could not let the victory escape us."
Torreira deal not sure anymore apparently, he's an option but negotiations ongoing, looking at alternatives and a guy from Lyon if this falls through which considering his performances so far it could.
Sampdoria's president says he's sold, so I reckon the only hurdle now is the medical.
Besides, anyone coming in with a late bid at this point will have to pay a shit sight more as I think the period for his release clause has expired...
Thought Torreira looked really good for Uruguay today, hope we do get him
We need him, that's for sure! Ramsey needs someone like Xhaka to be at his best, and Xhaka needs a player like Torreira - the whole midfield falls apart without him!
Torreira definitely has that combative edge that none of our CMs have. His distribution is good too and he's not afraid to smash the ball out of play when he needs to. Good first impressions.
