Do you regret selling Matic

Chaavs, do you guys still think you were right in getting rid of Matic?

So many of you were glad to get rid of him this summer. He may not be a Xavi but he is still better than Bakayoko. What do you think?

Well Pride tbf his first few games he looked very much like one, his fall from grace since however has been unprecedented.

But like Charlag said, it doesn't excuse Matic, just like Bravo being crap didn't make Joe Hart world class all off a sudden.

Wow City peeing all over your lot so you seek solace by comparing Bakayoko with Matic as a distraction.

No

He was 2nd fiddle to Kante, what we need is a partner for the little guy that can do what Fabregas is supposed to do - Matic is not that man!

Why play two defensive midfielders in a two man midfield?

I may have done you all a disservice, if you google JA606 Bakayoko and look back when you were first linked to him most of you thought he was garbage.

You rallied round after he signed, it’s just done the customary full circle now.

I'll give you the only sensible answer so far on this thread.

No, I don't regret selling Matic. He was a limited player who was often our weak link in the title winning side.

What I do regret is replacing him with Bakayoko!

Said it before. Right decision to sell Matic, wrong decision to replace him with Bakayoko.

This is the thing I find annoying, so many people had watched the guy play in a high profile season for Monaco and France and come to the conclusion he's not that good, hence none of us were originally that excited about being linked with him. We all thought there were better options out there. How can so many fans see it but not the scouts / board/ Conte

No mate it's the truth. We have plenty of problems with our team at the moment but if Matic was in there we would still be just as bad with him as without him.
