MC, DC Giannelli Imbula, 25, DR Congo, Belgium, France; speaks French, 7 caps, can also play the ML and DL spots competently. Fairly Determined, he was playing for OM in Ligue 1 for years. He’s been in French football all of his life. We are paying him 35k a week, through 2022, and he’s worth 7.75 mill right away. Wanna see my guy?
Physical – 17, 16, 16, 14, 15, 15, 16, 17 - Those are quite nice. He’s already strong.
Mental – 10, 15, 12, 16, 13, 14, 15, 15, 13, 10, 14, 13, 15, 15 – No complaints here at all. He’s played the game long enough to get it.
Technical – 8, 12, 15, 8, 16, 11, 13, 15, 6, 13, 17, 10, 11, 16 – Okay, where is he good? Passing of 17, technique and first touch of 16, dribb of 15. He’s a great Deep Lying Playmaker, although I’d like a bit more tackling (11), but hey, he’s not perfect. He’s patch for a hole in my 5 year plan created by Barcelona’s never-ending pocketbooks.
In my opinion, Imbula is a very strong pick up. And he was free!
Imbula, you complete us!
