Got them of that sport.virgilio website. The one that's supposed to be accurate & has been mentioned dozens of times already. Making them up? What do you think I am? Some kind of "guru" claiming we have a deal with Aguero? Good call on the fasting thing though, Jack. Kinda forgot about that...

But if Momo's passes are indeed too hard or bad for the receiver to control, wouldn't said receiver fail in doing so? Hence not counting as a successful pass? Fact remains that his passing stats aren't that bad. I guess there's a difference between what the fans & the public see and what...

Seems to be some kind of myth that everyone started believing. Last season's percentages of successful passes: Melo 85,7% Marchisio 84,4% Sissoko 82,9% Aquilani 82,2% Considering the kind of game Sissoko plays (when not injured :D), I'm perfectly fine with this percentage.

Meh. Considering his recent injury record, maybe it is. Guess I'm just sad to see players leaving who were a vital part of our best (performing) post Calciopoli squad.

Too bad he's leaving. Probably should/could have gotten a little more for him as well.

Same here. But he does usually end up doing the right thing. I can't quite understand why he's getting criticism after the Inter game.

There you have it. And Momo really doesn't strike me as a difficult person.

What does that have to do with what I said? I don't know what exactly the problem is with Momo. Of course, if he's not doing what he's supposed to or, even worse, faking injuries, then that is inexcusable & measures would need to be taken. But going to the press & saying: "I don’t know...

Keep this shit to yourself, Marotta. Whatever the exact problem is, you solve it indoors. Not by bitching about it to the press.

That's not entirely true. But I am well aware of his deficiencies. Both Melo & Sissoko get us in difficult situations way too often (the former even more so), but Momo's constant hustling (when he's on his game at least) puts a lot of pressure on the opponent, breaking down their play...

:tup: I thought I was the only one who noticed it. But that's not really true :D I still see Momo as an important player, but playing both him & Melo at the same time is suicide. They're just not clever enough, plain and simple.

We're going in circles here. You think Sissoko hampers our play & ultimately does more bad than good. I think he does (a lot) more good than bad & was absolutely vital the last time we actually performed. Let's leave it at that.

You really don't seem to understand what I'm trying to say. The proof is not in the matches, the proof is in the results at the end of the day. We scored more & conceded less with Momo in the team. And that's a fact. And for the umpteenth time, I'm well aware of the fact that it's not only...

Of course there are multiple reasons. I don't think I've ever said there aren't. Andy is the one who said that Momo is partly to blame for us creating (and as a result scoring) little. Again presenting it as a fact, I might add. Yet the numbers seem to tell us a different story. Don't...

I would think that is included in the "we also conceded less" bit.

Is it really necessary to belittle other people's opinions? Gets a bit tiring after a while. We scored & created more with Sissoko in the team than we did without him. We also conceded less. Now this obviously isn't only due to Momo's presence, but it does kinda undermine your point...

Feel free to disagree with me, no need to call it horseshit. You're not talking to a 12 year old kid here. Amauri gets a lot of crap as well, especially last season. Some of it undeserved. And Sissoko was indeed useful over the past season, sadly only before the winter break (that little...

Yeah, it's odd. Some players seem to get a free pass when they make a few mistakes, while others are heavily criticized for every small mistake they make. Human nature, I guess. Even more odd is the fact that people seem to be overlooking the fact that he was arguably our most important...

Definitely one of the most underrated players on this forum.

:tup: Melo & Sissoko both had some problems with their sloppy passing. Difference is, when Sissoko screws up, he'll try to make up for it (and succeed in doing so many times). The same thing can not be said for Melo.
