In one on one's you'll see Chiellini tackling, jumping and pulling like a madman, while Barzali just asks for the ball and gets it.

I think it's ironic, but I think being paired with Bonnucci has made Barzagli a beast of a player. He is more aware and focussed because of the losers incapacity.

Words can't express how stunned I am about this whole Barzagli saga this season. Its beyond mind blowing.

Our best player. Yes, I SAID IT!

You need both type of players to win the championship though.

 

[Dominic]

Certainly

 

[Gabriel]

World Champion

 

[Ahmed]

As I said in the live thread, his determination to win back the ball after a mistake is great.

it wasn't a mistake, he was messing with Udinese.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

So what do we do for next season?

Get a top CB who's intended to be a starter and let him and Barzagli compete for that spot

OR

get a solid backup player (quality youngster with potential to be a starter in 1 or 2 seasons/reliable old dude content with the bench) and keep faith in Barza?

yeah, i admire chiellini's physical utter domination style defending, but as i said, i love how barzagli makes it look so easy.

what's interesting too is how sometimes when he tackles you could swear he will never get the ball, yet it's like his feet will magically get the ball no matter what

That sliding tackle after the earlier give-away, eh?

Indeed.

Someone please make a comp of his sliding tackles.

Good complement for one another then. Barzagli seems to have a lot of poise; very cool-headed.

Makes sense. Shows good character too.

Yeah I noticed that too. He just suddenly has the ball.

Saving himself for Juve.

The opposite to Di Natale, big club mentality

With things as they are, this team should not be spending big money on a central defender.

 

[PhRoZeN]

Trying to think of the words of praise to use for this guy, just way too many words. He makes it look all way too easy, reliable, solid, beast just Simply the best. Becoming one of my faves. Keep it up.

MVP by a margin.

 

[Trequartista]

I remember in January no one except Ahmed wanted him here and before the Parma game, everyone wanted a new CB to bench him.

Oh my did he prove us wrong. He's absolutely fantastic.
