Steven Nzonzi

[Beksl]

No mate, you're doing it wrong. @say yes says he's not 30 until December, which means he's currently closer to 28 than 30.

Steven N'Zonzi is 28.

We can end this age debate once and for all if we start using days instead of years.

Hours or minutes would also be interesting.

Imagine @Trilly trying to calculate a player’s age in hours

Poor lad struggles to work out who won football games.

This guy is getting up there with Kalou and Gourcuff getting linked to us every single transfer window.

 

[samshere]

Signing him would make us among the oldest teams, or one the most experienced ones, whichever way you want to look at it.

 

[BigPappaSmurf]

Good player but would like someone a bit more mobile. Even if he did captain my old Blackburn team to chanpions league glory on FM

 

[Vinci]

Sign him up!

I'll say this now in case we do sign him, I think you'd have to be a bit mad to not want N'Zonzi. He'd give us a good 2-4 seasons of big boy football in midfield next to Xhaka. You wouldn't have to worry, that'd be a solid base and then the 4 attackers can do their thing with the full-backs bombing on. He'd slot right into a 4-2-3-1, simple. Also I don't get why people keep calling him slow, he really isn't that slow.

I'm all for exciting youngsters, but people need to stop obsessing over age. We have good young players already and there'll be more coming in, but they're not ready yet. So what's the harm in having a seasoned professional to do the business in the meantime. Worst case scenario the youngsters don't develop as planned and we just buy a new CM with the money N'Zonzi's experience has earned us.

It doesn't have to be 'project experience' or 'project youth', it can be both at the same time. I'd be over the moon with N'Zonzi, personally.

Are mods able to change a user's avatar too @Aevius ?

I think if we really wanted N'Zonzi we would have got him already. Also feels Wenger would be more keen than Emery/Sven. We have been linked for years though and he would solve a big problem. Don't see it happening at all though.

Good news. He may be deemed expensive, but Emery knows what he needs and what he gets for his money. This guy can do a pretty good job for us.

Reading the article I see Doucoure mentioned. Love him as well. Only 25 and hopefully around ~30m.

According to my calculations, Nzonzi is 254880 hours old, or more accurately: 15292800 minutes. Young gun.

Doucoure is miles better

I like Doucoure a lot, can play B2B or DM incredible engine on him.

All the regular journalists are on holiday so all these rumours are mostly bollocks.

 

[Stannis]

If we get n zonzi my hope would be we also get a young cm that can sit back or be b2b like Berge as well
