his passing used to be the explanation, but at this point, i'd prefer chiellini and de ligt until giorgio's body can keep up. you never see chiellini lethargic, unconcerned or passive. we are simply more eager with him on the pitch. that's what i expect from a true capitano to be honest. i really hope bonucci will get his act together, because they used to be a great pairing, and last season, bonucci played mostly very well before the covid break too.
