Miss the big guy. A wonderful player.

I still think we can do with an upgrade on him though. Far too slow for that position, especially in Europe.
we can get someone faster but i don't think we could get someone anywhere close to the ball control he has

Yeah it'd probably be a toss up between counter attacking pace and directness from a new signing or silky dribbling and through balls from Rogic. It'd be good to have both options on the go depending on who we're playing. :thumbsup:

Why does it need to be someone with that ball control that replaces him though? We can have 2 or 3 different types of player for that position.

Armstrong seems to be suited better to the deeper role and Christie doesn't seem ready yet to step up so another player in that position who is either better or as good as Rogic would be my Summer signing preference.

Personally I would prefer them to have a bit of pace about them.

Yes pace like Pirlo? Stojkovic? or Prosineski?

Get real guys we have a cracking player there who doesn't need any alternative

Man Citeh away was a good performance (or was it home?) for him, shielding the ball while spinning away into space being a particularly good talent he has.

Hurry back Tom.


Could really do with him getting a run before the semi.

Certainly will be good to have him back. As for yesterday , if Armstrong stays on , we win. Probably 2-0 . Bassas.

Yep, the substitution would've been Armstrong off and Bitton on which would've kept a midfield 3 with Rogic at the top and they'd have been too afraid to leave him meaning they wouldn't have been able to push up as much as they did. If he plays in the semi they're not in any sort of a similar position to score.

Not that anyone was expecting it but he's not in the Australia squad for their games.
