From all accounts, Jorginho would be a fine signing. A leader in the midfield who gives short shrift to any teammate not putting in a full shift. Potentially world class in our team under Pep.
On Mahrez I am keeping my powder dry. Possibly more beneficial to us staying at Leicester and helping to take points off the other contenders.

Impressive: I can see why Pep likes him.

Jorginho gives his best in an organised system of play such as Sarri’s or Guardiola’s. In the last few seasons, he has grown a lot in terms of his personality, physical condition and dynamism. - (Sky in Italy's Francesco Modugno)

Former Verona director Giovanni Galli, who signed Jorginho as a youngster, said: "He is smart, he knows his football and if I had to make a comparison to another of his ilk I would say Pirlo. He doesn't have the same long ball ability as Pirlo, but the same football intelligence."

The 26-year-old controls the game in the middle of the pitch and boasts some impressive stats.

Most notable are his number of touches and passes in games. Since 2004/05, he makes up nine of the top 10 spots in most touches in Serie A games - Pirlo is 10th on the list. He also makes up nine of the top 10 in most completed passes in Serie A games since the start of 2004/05.

Player Team Opponent Touches
Jorginho Napoli Verona 218
Jorginho Napoli Cagliari 206
Jorginho Napoli Palermo 186
Jorginho Napoli Benevento 179
Jorginho Napoli Udinese 177
Jorginho Napoli Lazio 176
Jorginho Napoli Palermo 173
Jorginho Napoli Frosinone 172
Jorginho Napoli Crotone 171
Pirlo Juventus Verona 169

He ranks top for completed passes since his Napoli debut and top for passes and touches this season. In terms of breaking up play, he ranks seventh among Serie A midfielders for interceptions since his debut.

His role is to provide a base for Napoli's most creative players to shine from a 4-3-3 formation, and Roma's Radja Nainggolan says he is the hardest opponent he's faced. "He always plays in tight situations and passes very close to him. It's very hard to follow him and stop his plays. You get tired because he moves the ball very fast, but he didn't even move himself"

I think when owners/presidents say things like that, the deal is done. They are just trying to look like they are squeezing the pips.

I'd just fuck any Italian team off after the first offer. They're a nightmare to deal with and have always shat on us when we're the buyers. When we're selling though we get crap deals (Tevez, Dzeko). Just walk away and go for someone else. If the lad wants to move to us he'll push it through

Just watching Italy Vs Holland.

The Durch are pretty awful. Jorginho having an ok game. Very much alike to Gundo, but not as advanced up the pitch. Bit concerned about his pace across the ground from this match. Nowhere near as quick as Fern1

Good pass completion though

Hoping Mario comes on from the Bench, and scores

What a signing. Can defend and pass the ball with accuracy. I believe he's better all round midfielder than Fred and Fabinho. To be fair they are all new to premier league, fingers crossed we got the best deal out of the lot.
