The yellow was so not even his fault. It was Chiellini's man he had to close down. Top drawer player. Smooth as silk on the ball. He's almost like the Pirlo of defenders.

Possibly his best game of the year. He is getting better somehow...

Wouldn't go that far. He's had better.

However, that one time he dispossessed the Siena player by simply stepping out from behind him, all casual-like, was so fucking class.

Yeah, that was fantastic.

He did, however, play a bad pass forward that got intercepted and left him and Chiello to face counter attack.

I am not sure if he deserves the card but from the looks of his his face when he got it, I was a bit doubtful. I know how sure of himself he has become and that makes me trust him more.

blatant dive, didn't deserve a yellow.

not every faul has contact in it. If the guy didn't jump, he would have broken his leg. Of course it was a faul. The same with Pepe/Alves.

^ the art of defending

How did this guy become so good. Its like he woke up one morning and said "my brain knows how to defend and I'll use all the talent I have"

He was actually a really promising defender when he was 20/21, tipped to be one of the next great Italian CBS. His performances trailed off for a few years, seems to have finally fulfilled his potential now. He is top class. Beast of a CB for us.

 

[Elvin]

everything just fell in place I guess, new motivation, first top club. This is the player he was predicted to become in his Palermo days...

He was playing in defence for Palermo to be fair.

He is so calm and good! Best defender in Serie A this year so far.

MOM nodoubt in this game.

I'd say this Was his best performance this season.

 

[Buck Fuddy]

This was actually one of his worst performances of the entire season. He doesn't often make the kind of mistake(s) he made yesterday.

Edit: least good instead of worst would probably be better.

I thought the same. He missed a couple of passes too.

Indeed, I wasn't blown away by that Barzagli performance. His confidence got him a yellow card.

 

[MikeM]

Is the yellow supposed to be a bad thing or something? I think he was looking for it to stop the play. He was either going to get the ball or the player and the attack was going to end. It wasn't even a bad play to me.

I say this was his best because he was tested so often 1 on 1. Far more than usual and TBH I've always been skeptical of how he would perform when left on an island but he won every encounter.
