I can't recall every seeing Emerson play before, but I find it hard to believe that he could really be THAT much worse than Alex Sandro has been at times. He'd have to be Marco Motta level.
Classic case of the grass is allways greener attitude. Emerson has 8 years long career so far, most of them spent in Serie A, Azzurri or a big club like Chelsea, he is someone we should seen Lot. Trust me when I say he is a SPARE, just a downright limited mediocre bum. He just does the minimum alright , nothing out of the norm. He is half the player Alex Sandro is.
Emerson Palmieri belongs in the Juve of Ranieri and Del Neri. Not this one.
Besides being absolutely seen as a ugly stepchild for 2 years in Chelsea, in his 8 years he has like 7 assists or goals...this is for his whole career. And no he isnt a defensive specialist fullback. One supposed to be technical.
