Matri had also two good seasons and both were better than Osvaldo's. :)
Based on what? Osvaldo had less games in Spain.

And they were in Italy.
When this is being used on Rossi we get ignored.

So I'll ignore it now too.

I've watched almost all Roma games so far I've never see Osvaldo dribbling or taking on his opponents.
It's not about dribbling, but having a much better technique. Matri doesn't move much while in the box, he's easy to read IMO but still very dangerous. Osvaldo has better technique.

I think they are both good players, it's a matter of taste IMO, we'll see how they do this season.

Solely statistics.

I don't see any other thing to compare strikers like this two. Difference between them in technique, speed, finishing... is minimal.
Matri doesn't have any technique but he's a better finisher.

Am I saying he is better than Inzaghi?
No, it's just that your argument was weak. His goals were tap ins? And what was Matri doing, scoring from their half?


They are similar strikers but Osvaldo is also 2 years younger.

I don't think he's average lol, but even if he according to you, then so is Matri.

Being younger doesn't justify Prandelli's stupid decision to keep Matri home and take Osvaldo.


Cesare Maldini: Prandelli has to explain why he picked Osvaldo ahead of Matri.

You were the one saying that Osvaldo is better because he can beat his man, does that make him better than Inzaghi and Trezeguet?

Matri has no technique?

Matri shows up in big games.

Prandelli is turning into a prick.
And disappears in lesser games? I don't like those players personally.

I'll defend him here. I don't think Prandelli even rates Osvaldo higher here, but Italy's place in that group is secured and they don't even need points now. He can test now, he doesn't need better players against Serbia. Italy pissed on everyone there, and they are simply replacing some players and resting them because there is no need to play them now.

But Inzaghi and Trez couldn't beat their man :frown:
I never said it's only because of that, Jesus. I was only saying how Matri looks static in the box and I don't like those players.

Oh and I do rate Matri higher than Pazzini for example. I'm not saying that Matri is bad, not at all. But I think he can be cut from game much easier.
