But we completely lose any sort of defensive ability swapping them? Rabiot plays like Gomes.

Possibly.

I've read enough of your posts on this forum to come to the conclusion that you're the very definition of a 4chan virgin.
Do nothing but attack other people online to play to the crowd without actually being able to hold a proper conversation.
Your typical responses and constant desire to name call/ act like whoever disagrees with you is retarded paints you as a sad and nasty person pal - would hate to bump into you on a night out fella you deffo would be the type who could start an argument in an empty room!
With Jags confirming he's going and Silva saying it may depend on the Zouma situation, I'm putting 2 & 2 together and Zouming to a conclusion here

What I was thinking Eggs is that they haven't made their mind up on him yet. He has had a couple of injuries and apparently a bit of a growth spurt which, as you know, can sometime affect their form and fitness. So they give him an extra year and send him out to see how he does. But you could be right. I can't imagine either Robinson or Connolly coming back into the U23 fold next season and I reckon Feeney will go out on loan so Gibson will be marshalling the back 4.

Think if Mina stays Jags would be gone regardless mate. I imagine if Zouma doesn't sign we'll look elswhere regardless.
Because of the way his advancing age affects his value, and his marketability.
If we keep him now, we will need to bring in a replacement in two years BUT we will lose the ability to sell him for a decent wedge, because his value will drop over that period. It's inevitable.
As good as he is now, we know two things:
1) He will age
2) With age, his performances will deteriorate
If we are getting decent offers now, we need to take a commercial view on the best move. As much as we might not WANT to sell him, we know that we are going to have to replace him sooner rather than later. Therefore, take the money.
It's the cash-driven version of the approach the New England Patriots keep their roster refreshed - don't wait until a guy's performance drops off a cliff before you try to get rid of him and replace him, because:
a) no-one will offer you anything for him; and
b) everyone will hold you over a barrel when you come looking for his replacement.
For too long we have adopted a nostalgia-based approach, ignoring commercial realities, and kept players for too long. Jagielka is a prime example of this.

Depends if Rabiot plays 6 or 8.
I think we will do away with any Gana type if we sold him and go for someone with strong all round ability which negates the need for Gana+Schneiderlin.
I suspect Rabiot would be a star at 6 and Sosa could also be the one to mould.
Rabiot imo is FAR stronger defensively than Gomes...only similar comparison is their size, passing and desire to run forward with the ball.
LOL.
Just for your info.
The use of the word of the word “ retarded “ is generally frowned upon on here.
Might help you stick around a bit longer before the inevitable ban.

My concern if Gana goes would be that we'll be alot weaker defensively in open play.
Gana is massively underrated in our set up imo.

7 Youngsters from the Brazilian League Who Look Perfect for European Football
One of Liverpool's most consistent midfielders, and now a UEFA Champions League winner, Fabinho was just 18 years old when he packed his bags and left Rio Janeiro in 2012...
bleacherreport.com
Basically a piece on 7 brazilian young players with some details on all...were not mentioned.
However, you never know what Brands may do.
Id like to see some Sosa type deals...

I like Gana I really do but I get flashbacks of him being in really good positions in matches and he just waste chances away because he's so poor offensively, I know I shouldn't hold him accountable for that but it winds me up when he's hitting shots outside the stadium from outside the penalty box, His defensive game is top notch but I'd love someone who can do the defensive work and just be a little more clinical offensively too.

I dont think Gana / Gomes / Sigurdsson is a very good midfield
Id like to see a different midfield next season and I like the Sosa move as it would give us a player in DM who can pass...
Individually defensively Gana is great...but the team hasnt been successful with him and hes only looked truly elite since PSG came in for him during Jan.
The only way we can compete is either by getting stars like Rabiot or moulding players like Sosa.
