I can understand your point man, but we have to give it time... lets not forget that at his age Gattuso was a shitty player playing in Scotland so Noce is miles ahead by now :)
well lets not get ahead of ourselves here, nocerino has the potential to be better than gattuso, but isnt so yet, and besides whos to say nocerino wont suffer a career threatening injury (god forbid it happens)

Nocerino is going to be a great DM. I just hope he doesn't become too obsessed with moving forward into attack. I think he should focus on defending, because he is already stellar in that department and has the potential to be undefeatable in a challenge.

f*ck off :D

you can have marco brighi instead, see what you can make out of him, unless you got enough to buy blasi :p
The sad thing is that those shit players would look awesome in the SPL.

Our top earning player gets about £4000 a week, so even Brighi would be miles out of our price range.

Your best paid player of all time is a bald Dane. That says it all, doesn't it? :D

Nocerino Earns Gattuso Comparison

Antonio Nocerino has enjoyed an excellent preseason for Juventus thus far, so much so that he is already being talked about as the second-coming of Gennaro Gattuso in some circles.

The 22-year-old is similar in style and stature to Milan's midfield destroyer, but refreshingly is level-headed enough to know that he still has much to learn before being truly deserving of that tag.

"Some people have noticed a physical resemblance to Gattuso but we are talking about a World Champion here. I still have a long way to go to reach his level," admitted Nocerino.

Despite his obvious admiration for 'Il Rino’, the Azzurrini starlet revealed that his midfield idol is actually AS Roma’s Daniele De Rossi.

"De Rossi is one of the most complete players around,” he explained. “He can defend as well as get into dangerous forward positions."

The Juventus youth product has spent the last four years learning the ropes at the likes of Messina and Piacenza, but is naturally delighted to be given the chance to be a bona fide Bianconeri.

I guess nocerino is going to turn out to be more of a de rossi than a gatusso .
He seems to have the attacking mentality Gatusso doesn't have , I would rather if played as a destroyer in the midfield than moving forward to attack , we all ready have too many players like that . If we get lucky he may be able to play both posiions , that way , he could play well beside zanetti/tiago/almiron .
