Claudio Marchisio (107 Viewers)

[Zacheryah]

Zach, you're out of breath and you need to put a sock in it - that analysis doesn't hold up. Honestly your attempts of giving Marchisio too much credit are nauseating. Its basically means this, assuming Pirlo is playing:

If Marchisio is starting on the right, then Conte has told him to play a defensive, covering dacdicality role.

If Pogba is starting on the right, then Conte has told him to play an offensive role.

Damn, if only Conte would stop hating Marchisio and just let his talent flow freely. The issue with Marchisio is that he definitely has the talent to shine, both defensively and offensively. He's a hard worker even when he doesn't play well, but that's where it stops with him. He reminds me of Matri in that way, in order to truly flourish and do everything he is supposed to then he really needs consecutive runs of games where he scores to boost his confidence.

Marchisio is a confidence player, that i agree on.

But the bold part... italian coaches are very known to tactically limit their players. And i've seen conte instruct marchisio with many diffrent things. He allways does it reasonably well

offcourse, if you say "sometimes, he does better things with the ball", then you are right offcourse. But its far from his most important task.
Against real madrid, he was brilliant. Just, brilliant.

A shame the defence let him down

You mean, nothing was understood (by you)

You need to pull your head out of your ass. I'm telling you this straight up, one asshole to another. You need to tone it down.

Zach's ego is so inflated that if it was to burst we would be gone like the dinosaurs. Boom.

Don't you dare cop out on me like that, I've smacked people in discussions way too many times to allow that. Don't mention the Madrid game as Marchisio was playing the role of an extra midfielder with the clear purpose of shutting down Ronaldo and then cutting in during the attacks to open space for Caceres relentless runs forward - which goes fine in hand with what I said about him, that he always works hard and is good defensively.

Again I ask you: Why is Conte limiting Marchisio but not Pogba? Why is Marchisio starting one day and he is being instructed to sit back and do a purely defensive job (if we are to follow your line of reasoning that Marchisio is invisible offensively and has been all season since Conte is asking him to), when Pogba start the next day in the same role, in the same setup and just takes on the entire world? Again, why does Conte hate on Marchisio like dat?

The brother has private access to the dressing rooms, stop questioning his ideas guys!

Most definitely.

I wonder what his mama told him to make him feel this good.

 

[Hust]

I'm gonna get a lot of use on the Tuz out of this for the daily moron feed in various player threads....

 

[Trequartista]

Most definitely.

Well, Zach has often bragged about his large schlong...

Because Pogba has 4x more talent offensively

Once you reach his level of dacdical etucadion you just read things like this from the game, paesand

You came up with good discuttion points. Now dont ruin it

and defensively, too.

He's also Belgio-Italien, football expertise is in his genes.

Well, you called him a member of the inferior peasant race in the first place.

 

[Nzoric]

Because Pogba has 4x more talent offensively

Which makes the entire point of starting Marchisio obsolete as only a madman would argue that Pogba's relatively small defensive downside when compared to Marchisio (and I would only consider this to be true in games where Pogba isn't 100% in the game as a result of his lacking experience) outweighs the fact that he is as you put it, 4x better offensively.

Like when Conte clearly told Caceres to pass the ball back?

and defensively, too.

And everything too.

Marchisio shouldn't be sold at all, he needs to remain for depth.

I'm not ruining anything. You keep setting me up with these ego inflated postulates regarding your own supreme knowledge and I'll keep knocking them out of the park. That's separate from the discussion.

 

[Trequartista]

And everything too.

Marchisio shouldn't be sold at all, he needs to remain for depth.

And the homegrown CL rule.
