He's only 16, seems to have considerable potential. I didn't watch the game but believe he played DC in the first half and DL in the second. It's actually ridiculous how much talent they are producing in Barcelona at the moment, next Thiago and there are another 4-5 kids at U18 age now who look like first team potential even for their side.
Interestingly I was reading an article on TMW where they spoke about Juve having their own 'cantera', mentioning guys like Camilleri, Giannetti and Büchel, even though they were loanees and have been sent back to their clubs. And also no-hopers like Bianco who are continuously loaned and destined to leave.
We have managed to help bring through players like Giovinco, Marchisio, De Ceglie, Criscito, Cassani, Mirante, Gastaldello, Konko, Palladino, Lanzafame, Ariaudo with mixed success in terms of ability and how they were handled. We have another batch of Pasquato, Giandonato, Marrone, Sørensen with some regular first team games under their belts, then all those on loan trying to make a name, then several highly rated hopefuls in the current Primavera who have been plucked from all corners home and abroad. But we simply have to have more faith in them and integrate them better in our team. Of course it's easier for Barcelona to do this as they are in a continual winning cycle, but it's also harder for their youth to win a regular place, which is why some leave. What they do in Barcelona is the only thing I admire about that club, Juventus also have to find our own system and way of playing which transcends down to youth teams from an early age. It seems that with every chop and change at the top of the club, every new set of youth coaches, we start again with different ideas. Last year the Primavera rarely played the same formation as the first team, for example. Pessotto seems to be doing a good job in his role but we need something more uniform throughout the club.
Hmmm, I waffled on a bit there.
