Ciro Immobile (8 Viewers)

[Trequartista]

Would you think he'd start over one of Vucinic or Giovinco?

No, but I think he could get the nod ahead of Quag and Matri.

Immobile is Borriello-esque, I think Conte would give him the nod ahead of Matri, perhaps Quagliarella.

Are you saying that because the way he runs is funny?

Agreed.

Haha, you noticed that too?

His body language, style of play (better with the ball than Borri) reminds of Borriello as well.

 

[Trequartista]

Yes

He can also shield the ball like Borriello does.

Conte will love him

 

[Red]

I've seen Ciro play, as talented as he is, his time to comeback isn't now. He learns more from playing in a midtable team than being the 5th striker of Juventus.

I'd agree with that if I though Immobile would be the fifth-choice striker.

As things stand, though, I think he could well establish himself as third-choice striker pretty quickly.

And it's not that I think Immobile is anything special.

Matri shows no real signs of regaining his past form and Conte hasn't exactly appeared keen to play Quagliarella recently.

 

[Salvatore]

Agreed with that, and Conte has said positive things about him. He'd be alright to have now, and he wouldn't be expensive. I think this deal is realistic and could happen this month.

And he needs to be taken away from Genoa, their fans and Delneri.

Bring the boy back. I can see him playing 3rd fiddle behind our two SS's.

Do you like Immobile, Red?

 

[Joe]

I rather us look at Gabbiadini. I feel like that kid is going to be some special some day.

But if we can't, I want us to get Immobile. The kid deserves a chance and he can't possibly do any worse than what Matri is doing now.

 

[Red]

Do you like Immobile, Red?

Can't say I've seen an awful lot of him.

Seems to work away and moves reasonably well - both in regards to moving defences around and getting himself in good positions.

Touch is decent.

Not the coolest of finishers, though.

Under normal circumstances, I doubt Juve would be looking to bring him back at this point. His current level of ability shouldn't be enough to have a shot at getting close to being in the Juve team, but Juve's sub-standard forward line means he's worth considering.

 

[Deep C]

People are referring an awful lot to Conte's latest comments regarding Ciro as proof positive that he's coming, but didn't he say something along the lines of "I like him, we'll continue to monitor his progress"? Sure as shit doesn't sound to me like he is 100 % on bringing him back this january.

 

[Badass J Elkann]

well you know how it works round here, when Jovetic said "He would like to stay in Italy" people automatically assume he is on his way to Juve

Yeah, I didn't get much that he's 100% coming here from that quote.

Seems more on the end that he isn't coming.

"We'll keep a close eye on his progress"

'Continue' implies he'd be staying, monitoring him closely could mean different things. But I think it's down to being linked with him (via SKY) and Conte saying he likes the player. Nothing is certain.

@those who think he would play behind Matri & Quag

This kid's finishing is easily on par if not wayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than matri & quag




Bring him back plz.

5th striker.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

My spider sense tingles for him. He will be a pretty good striker.

 

[Hust]

But can he "open up space" as well as Matri?


Discuss.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

He's an affluent Borriello.

 

[Hust]

That's not going to win him many votes, matt.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Oh, and minus the herps.
