Please don't say we have bid for de Rossi. 30 years of age no prem experience and is no where near as good as what we have now.

'No where near as good as what we have now' I'm sorry I agree with the age thing but that has to be the dumbest thing i've ever read on this site

De rossi is world class wow to say he's no where near as good as what we have now what silly comment to make.

De Rossi is world class. Would welcome him with open arms.

De Rossi is still one of the best midfielders in the world, he can easily do the job along side Carrick for atleast 3-4 years.

Age isn't a factor any more mate.

Lol. De Rossi nowhere near as good as what we have now?

Carrick, our best midfielder, is not as good as De Rossi. cleverley and Anderson are not in the same league as him.

Daniele de Rossi is a brilliant player. He's just turned 30 and is in the prime of his career. Would be an unbelievable signing and I heard he is available for less than £20m thought not sure if that part is true.

As for the him not being better than what we have, you can't be serious. Anderson, Cleverley or de Rossi? Hmmm.

Not such a hard choice.

Dream team

You better watch what your saying mate, 30 in his prime?

Christ Baines at 29, WS at 27, And a few others are over the hill on here at their ages ;)

De Rossi is not class.

And in his prime at 30? Hmmm

I would rather play Jones where he would play. Maybe lacks the passing but he's young and can only get better. And Jones is much more physical than an old overated 30 year old

I think you're trying to wind us up OP, that's the only explanation. Either that or you just haven't got a clue!

Your prime is usually 27-31, and he's playing a position that doesn't require much pace so he could easily do that role at the top of his game until he's around 33, so yes he's in his prime. just look at Carrick and RVP, both in their 30's and playing the best football of their lives.
