Alex Sandro (33 Viewers)

And i thought that Allegri was great at rotating...

Right now he seems to be still shellshocked by the disastrous start of the campaign... so he will be using the same best players week in week out to start getting points. I dont mind that... but dybalas, sandro and ruganis case gets my attention.

For the amount of money we paid for him, dybala, mandz and zaza...i see very little impact.

The benching of this man, rugani and Dybala is are criminal. A little less in ruganis case...but anyways

Dybala is playign more than enough. Rugani and Sandro should be playing more, but i also agree with what @Boksic said, when we start winning games in series again and the team finds the chemistry, i think we will start seeing more of them.

as for the 1st part and the pic JCK posted. its still too early to call anyone a flop or to say we wasted money on him. we arent even halfway through CL group stage yet. also, Sandro, Rugani and Dybala are investments for the future. you cant treat them the same way as proven players that are expected to perform immediately. in 3-4 even 5 years we can talk about if Sandro or Dybala are failed investments or not

It's a joke. Dybala is our top-scorer. Alex Sandro was our best player in his first match for us, and one of our better players in his second. Has played a total of like 15 minutes since.

Evra, I like him, he's good still, but he has obvious limitations, which you can see by how little we attack on the left side of the pitch. We're becoming stupidly imbalanced to the right side with Cuadrado and it's allowing teams to key in on stopping him. Alex Sandro with Pogba on the left, would provide a much bigger attacking threat.

I mean, it's pretty obvious that Alex Sandro is better than Evra at this point. Maybe not quite as tactically sound, due to less experience, but better in every single other aspect of the game.

It's inane on Allegri's part that he isn't starting regularly in rotation with Evra.

This guy looked solid.

 

[Boksic]

Good game, not convinced he is the attacking player people make him out to be though...

 

[j0ker]

Some of his crosses reminded me of Molinaro.

 

[Ocelot]

Decent, nothing less, nothing more.

 

[The Curr]

He posed absolutely no attacking threat whatsoever. He doesn't seem to be able to cross or dribble. Evra would have been far more dangerous.

 

[X Æ A-12]

was surprisingly average tonight. Had some good linkup play but his crossing was terrible

 

[JCK]

 

[Inglip]

He wasnt that bad

 

[The Curr]

Is there anyone here to who actually saw a lot of him playing for Porto? Was he good going forward like people seem to think? I just don't see it. Solid, yes. Attacking, no.

Shouldn't this be considered spam?

Why is that? I am expressing my opinion with a photo considering that I think we paid way too much for an ordinary player. I totally understand why Evra has been getting the nod ahead of him.

Because you've been posting this image a lot of times without any comment, let's face it, if Rus or Zach did the same they'd have gotten infractions every time.

And this guy wasn't a waste of money, not even close. He'll still lock down the LB spot for years to come after Evra's inevitable retirement.

To be honest? He is slightly better than Peluso, that's how good he is. So if this is our future for LB then we'd better change our ambitions in the coming years.

 

[Cronios]

as long as we have Marotta our potential is limited...

I actually don't know how to respond to this. I mean, this is signature material.

Then my advice to you is to use it in your signature instead of replying. You said it right there before I did.

Give him some time.
