    Sebastian Giovinco

    ESPNs player of the week. He has started well. 5 goals and 6 assists in 11 league matches will definitely endear him to those fans.

    HEY! :D Yeah, not only a silly setup, but as far as I know teams can only carry 3 designated players. So Gilberto has gotta be on his way out, clearly they'll keep Giovinco, Altidore, and Bradley.

    I did read something on the front page about a "multi-million dollar transfer fee" as well, but I can't see how that's happening. Looking forward to the details. Well past time for this guy to be elsewhere. Set for life with that contract!

    Not extending him, and letting him walk for nothing would be something like throwing away 10M dollars. The club is not really in a position to be throwing away cash.

    As if Giovinco and De Ceglie are close to being the same class of player? Get a grip, Pedro. :P Giovinco, when he wasn't wanted before, left. If it's made known to him that he's not wanted here, he'll be willing to go again. There will be plenty of Italian teams interested if we decide to...

    Sebastian Giovinco

    You're right, he's not a youngster at this point. What I meant, was that at 27 he's not an old player, either. Still young enough to sign him to a new deal, and move him later if need be. Anyway, the entire point of the comment is that successful teams don't just let useful, desirable (to...

    You give him the contract, because he's an asset and the club wants to be able to get a decent return on him if it turns out the new coach doesn't want him. Giovinco is still young, and thought fairly highly of in Italy. If we put him on the market, there will be interest.

    Sebastian Giovinco

    Just because you repeat this a million times, doesn't make it true. He's better on the wing then he is at SS, where he too often gets bullied because of his size and the lack of space. Name me a run of games during the last two years at Juve, where Giovinco has played LWF in a 4-3-3? You...

    Absolutely. Very slick goal, plus he drew the foul that led to Mexes' tantrum. A decisive Giovinco performance in a big match? Could just be! If I didn't just jinx it...

    People need to get over themselves. Being happy one of our players is struggling... shame on fucking YOUS! :D The player is never going to be world class, but it's not like we splashed big cash on him either. All of these fantastic stories of him bashing the club are fucking silly and...

    http://www.football-italia.net/39269/giovinco-competition-healthy Sebastian Giovinco is slipping down the pecking order at Juventus, but insists “competition is part of being in a team.” The Atomic Ant was one of several Juve players who visited the Ferrari box ahead of today’s Formula 1 Grand...

    They may not want to sell him at a loss, or the club may want to hold him another season for amortization/accounting purposes, or what have you - I really don't know much about that. To me, it has always seemed that Conte does rate him higher than Quagliarella and Matri. He has always...

    It doesn't seem right, but I think they're collectively trying to give his confidence a bit of a boost. This guy had a pretty rough second half, I'm sure he'll appreciate the gesture.

    Good stuff, bud. You can definitely tell who all of them are, but it might help if you rotated the image right side up :D

    Sebastian Giovinco

    Absolutely, Baggio. You'd think we had just finished 7th for the second consecutive season, with all the moaning in here. Jesus. Guys, it doesn't seem like he's going anywhere at this point, why don't you just try to enjoy the Scudetto.

    Sebastian Giovinco

    I don't think anybody thought that Giovinco was the reincarnation of Jesus Christ. I would bet good money that he won't be sold, though; also think that if we play some 4-3-3 next season, he could be useful.

    Exactly my thoughts. I'm not a medical professional, but the first thing they taught me in first-aid back in the day was that in events where there is head and neck trauma, you immobilize the neck as much as possible, call the ambulance. You do not fuck around with head/neck trauma. I have...
