I will accept the "tactical" argument that Pjanic is too fine of form to even consider playing Marchisio (or 2 man midfield). I won't accept, however, the other arguments.

but some clearly have short memory, 1 fucking tackle and suddenly all the times hes been useless this season and his unforgivable performance vs sampdoria and he's kingYou keep mentioning TV. I would love for you to elaborate that because it has nothing to do with Marchisio.
His "special program" has been done for some time now. He is training with the first team and has been for some time. But go ahead and keep with that particular argument angle.

Serious matches? You're telling me in 3 competitions you can't find 20 mins to spare to get what should be one of your best CM's back to fitness?

The problem for Max is that we don't have any B2B CM backups for Matuidi and Khedira. I think Allegri would gladly have Marchisio as the vice-Pjanic, and in that sense he could get more playing time because Pjanic takes games off. But Max has to be careful to keep Marchisio in good condition all the way until the end of the season in case Matuidi/Khedira run into trouble.
So Max uses Bentancur as the vice-Pjanic since he's a young kid and most comfortable there by far. That leaves Marchisio as backup B2B but he can't do 90 minutes so his playing time is severely limited.
Now if only he would *just try ONE time* Berna at RCM against some shit team, just to see what your options are - then maybe Marchisio could get more time as vice-Pjanic.

And @Hustini, that quote was to Badass, he keeps insisting for weeks how Marchisio should be a starter even if he's half fit, because Khedira is useless. That's why I asked him if he watched the Torino game in the 1st place.
But back to the point, I dont see how increasing his minutes against fodder teams would help him in any way fitness wise. I could play regista for Juve vs Crotone and wouldn't even run out of gas for 90 minutes, not even joking. Don't see how that would benefit him more than working out with a fitness coach

Perhaps. In matches where the result is pretty much done, why not take Pjanic off and Marchisio on? Less pressure, team is in conserve mode and what better player than Pjanic to control the tempo of the game than Marchisio?
Bentancur can play b2b he has the legs for it. We can't get to March and expect Marchisio to have 90 mins in his legs if he continues on this trend IMO.

because you keep insisting playing in a competitive match is somehow the magic formula to recover his muscles. I would agree that competitive matches are different than training and it helps acclimate a player back into the side but that is psychologically, his muscles don't know the fucking difference between a competitive match and a training one but you keep arguing that they do.
Maybe Euromaxx doesn't have a mad crush on Marchisio and therefore isn't in a rush to bring to him back as fast as possible. Maybe he is actually considering what is most beneficial to the team as a whole and, in Marchisios situation, what is beneficial to the player in the long term, ie over the course of the entire season, over the short term? Maybe the thought process is that if there is even a slight chance that babying him now means he is more likely to be available in the final sprint of the season that we don't need him right now so it is worth it to take it slow?
Have you considered that option?
Have you considered that option?
Have you played and/or practiced with a professional club before? Do you realize how often the coach(es) stop a practice match to discuss the tactics he asks his players to do during a match BECAUSE THE MATCH KEEPS GOING FOR 90 MINUTES. An actual match is continuous. Why am I even explaining this? It should be pretty obvious how a Serie A/Champions League match is different than a practice session ESPECIALLY ones the day or two after where players are partially recovering from a match.
Your logic suggests that players would have need to rest after practice because its the same energy level as a full match lol

Word - wasn't sure.
No, you could not play regista for Juve against any team. No need to exaggerate that to try and prove a point. Some things, especially in football, only playing in matches can give you. I'm sure he has plenty of time with a fitness coach...but is it really doing him any good?

Marchisio is an experienced veteran with the perfect tactical understanding, there is nothing he can gain by playing 10-15 minutes a week more than he is already
