Capitano Giorgio Chiellini (122 Viewers)

I think we all knew this was his last year but kind of hoped he could do 25 games.

He's such an influential player for setting the tempo of the game. I think he's very underappreciated in that respect. We miss him in these smaller games where the team gets arrogant or loses focus and intensity.

Another Barzagli situation. Thank you Capitano for everything and good luck in your role as director.

Too bad. He could’ve been so important for us these last 3 seasons. We missed him against Ajax, we missed him last year and we’ll miss him this year. Still think that he’ll aim for the Euro’s but he’ll continue to struggle this season. So sad that we never saw Chiellini - De Ligt in these 1,5 year...

We need you to stay fit Capitano.

 

[piotrr]

Why can't he have Bonuccis health ehhh

 

[Alin]

Solid comeback.Think he was rested and not risked further because if he manages to stay fit he is likely going to start against Inter, which in this kind of form i'd very much prefer tbh.

Idk, he just brings an intensity and aggresiveness that we lack and it showed from the first second on, really sad that injuries took it's toll on him and you never know if he's going to be available or not, hopefully he can be ready for at least some of the crucial games like the one coming up on Sunday, a healthy and match-fit Chiellini is still an automatic starter.

yeah we (aka Bonucci) need chiellini with de Ligt out. I‘d start him vs inter over Demiral. He can pocket Lukaku

High line with Bonucci -Chiellini is a very bad idea.

You can't simply roll back the years. That kind of play requires either De Ligt or Demiral. In not too distant future probably both.

Nice assist. Never gets the credit he deserves for his passing.

Good to have him back.

Melo on Chiellini - Has no ethics (FI)
Funny this mental case allows himself to lecture about ethics... I even remember a funny post about him being mental on FM as well.

 

[JuveJay]

I bet it burns him that Chiellini has had a much better career. Lol, fuck that cretin.

 

[Elvin]

In trying to mock Chiellini for not winning an international trophy, is Melo actually holding his 2009 Confederations Cup over Chiellini's head?

 

[BiancoEg]

As much as I like him and respect him but its time for him to retire

 

[Elvin]

He is finished and Pirlo is an idiot for starting him.

He wasn't the one to blame... leave Il Capitano alone

lol literally the only guy that showed up today.

 

[Cronios]

After tonight, there are only a couple of important matches for Chiello to play before he retires...

 

[Juvellino]

He wasn’t the problem today but him starting was symbolic for a club stuck in the past.

The one starting him is.

And? This is grounds of starting him just because its his last season and "we gotta show some love" or some shit?

He and Szczesny

Welcome back Chiello, it was nice to see him, of course his off his pace but there were many of moments where you could see his class on the pitch, something none of our CB come even close to.
