With all due respect to Giorgio, he can barely lead the defence. Even that is too much for him sometimes. Isn't it strange that he performed best next to Legrottaglie / Barzagli? Where he didn't have to lead the defence?
That run he made after he back heeled the ball to Borriello, only for the latter to waste another golden opportunity to assist him while their defense was wide open, was such a waste to see.
