I actually find it annoying, it has gone too far lately.
This is bullshit, man. What has gone too far is the fierce criticism of him. A lot of it has been very undeserved. Sure, he's struggled this season but he got an unfortunate injury at the beginning of it. He's starting to get into fine shape now.

He did what had to be done I can't complain. We're better whan Marchisio is DM and Pogba is B2B. The other way around it's not so good.
:tup: He's good at providing cover and distributing, but simply doesn't have Pogba's talent and moves to impose himself in the final 3rd. I'm in favor that we start those 3 till the end of season. I like how they work together.

So what are we saying, average has to be shit and good has to be brilliant?

O sweet middle ground...
He's quiet and hardworking midfielder and in this role, when he has 2 other mids to push forward and provide cover for them, he looks good. As b2b he simply can't offer much. He still does the defensive work, but he's not quite influential upfront; can't even remotely handle situations like Pogba does for instance.

There's post somewhere, either here or in Pirlo's thread when I wanted him to be tested in this role, as I felt it would emphasize his characteristics the most.

Fierce criticism? You say it as if I am doing it every match. You're becoming like those members that are forcing me to quit this forum altogether.

I meant in general, just referring to the general criticism that has been hailing down on Marchisio for quite some time now. Wasn't aiming at you solely.

Surprised that you would take my comment so personal, proclaiming that I'm a member you dislike. You know I hold you in high regard, JCK, so that was disappointing.

I see everybody enjoyed seeing vidal and pogba take part in so many attacking moves. much more then usual, and we seriously laid the hurt onto atalanta as a consequence. atalanta, who hardly played trough the middle.

Good. That will be all.
yes, because Pogba and Vidal were going all Ribery and Robben on us with their offensive adventures.

If you don't want me to take it personal than you should have just posted what you wanted to say without quoting me. Quoting someone is as personal as it gets.
