I don't mean to be rude but what are you on about? He was one of the best players in Serie A and the Champions League THIS calendar year.
the premier league is NOT serie a or the champions league...
The Champions League IS the Champions League. Besides which, he's passed England teams off the pitch in two successive international tournaments. No, you can't stick him alongside Yaya. Yes, you can stick him alongside Fernandinho.
There will be games when we have 20-30 minutes left and we either need to retain the ball or make something magic happen when we get it. He would be ideal candidate to pull off the bench.
Why on earth would anyone have an issue with us getting him in on loan? It's bonkers.
I just can't help but agree with ADVT.
