Arthur (25 Viewers)

He's good with the ball and all, but just very little end product. We need to surround him with players who have drive and creativity.

He's not bad.

Keep the him and the gringo. Sell the rest of the mids.

 

[ElApache]

Half-player

 

[Signora Omicidi]

He needs a Pogba to pass.

 

[BiancoEg]

Only can pass the ball to the player next to him

Decent game but his passing is incredibly frustrating.

Far too limited with the ball, I can't work out whether he just doesn't see passes or doesn't have the confidence/ability to make them.

Doesnt see them, like most of our midfield players,have no vision whatsoever. Just pay attention, every single game, one of our attacking players will make a run, he wont get a pass fron our midfield and our midfielder will just lift his arm up to say sorry. Every time, tonight was such a night also. Our midfield just doesnt have the vision and skill to make long passes behind the oposition defence.

Was just saying the same in the Morata thread. He made so many off the ball runs in the first half and wasn't picked out. Ronaldo and Ramsey often do too.

When Arthur did pick him out he took too long to play the pass and Morata was offside for his disallowed goal.

Still I feel 10 times more safe with him instead of Bentancur. He had a good game imo.

Depends what you are looking for.

To receive the ball and relieve pressure from a press, I trust him 100%.

But to be a CM in Juve you should be showing more and need to be able to either pass or score. A sign of how far we have fallen if Arthur is what we accept.

 

[CrimsonianKing]

He kinda bothers me. You see his body language as he’s about to receive the ball and he’s already made up his mind to pass sideways. Kinda like a horse wearing Blinkers but in his case he can’t see ahead. No vision or intent to move forward.

 

[duranfj]

He wasn't our bigger problem tonight... can he pass the ball to the front? no... is it a new thing? no

 

[Alen]

He doesn't read the game at all. You already discussed his limits in the offensive phase, but he's also a terrible defender. His positioning when we defend is disastrous. He can't predict where a pass will go, he's late to cover etc. Pirlo and Pjanic were slower players, but class defenders compared to this guy. That's because they read the game much better. They were much smarter folks than this guy. He has a unique quality to protect the ball, but that's about it.

Oh and that moment when he was sent out of the stadium by Corona for Porto's great chance (header) in extra time

I'm sure he's great at five a side, whats odd is why he's playing 11 on 11 on a big pitch that requires athleticism, grinta and tactical discipline instead of just silky control on the ball

 

[JuvePerSempre10]

He was good. But imagine him actually having a long-range pass, he would be one of the best midfielders of his generation.

 

[bongraider]

Does not know how to read the game and pick out runs.

And he's unsellable because we wanted a big plusvalenza on Pjanic and we inflated both his and Pjanic's price. Now he's someone we bought for 80m euro on a 5 year contract. If we don't sell him for ~65M euro this summer, it's gonna be a huge minusvalenza and our directors won't let that happen.
He's staying next year. So is McKennie. Bentancur will almost certainly stay too because his price is too low right now to sell him and share the profits with Boca.
Ramsey will be hard to sell due to his wages. That leaves what, Rabiot?
I'm afraid that the only change we will see this summer is a new midfielder for Rabiot or Ramsey. Unless we hit the new Zidane or Pirlo, we will see a lot of the same in midfield next year

He was great tonight though and wa helping us control the game. We went to shit again after he left the field.

Would be a great player of he was able to make more forward passes.

 

[Bianconero_Aus]

He bossed it last night. Really stepped up a gear and took control of the game. Imo we lost a lot of control over the game when he had to go off. Shame.

I agree. He was our metronome.
