I dont get what the whole deal is here. Trezeguet just got his first 90 minute serie A start in the longest time. After having to deal with a lot emotionally and physically on the back of an injury laden season. What dont the Trez bashers get here? He isnt the trequertista, he doesnt need to be doing any of the running or falling back to help the team. I'd rather feel like we're playing a man down and be a goal up, than the other way around. The one and only job he is given when his name is on that teamsheet, is to score. Very clearly, he's not at his best. But that's a function of confidence, not physicality or incompetence. His confidence comes from finding the back of the net, not distributing the ball or helping in defence. Everything about his game depends upon his strike rate. Sure, tonight wasn't pretty. But weeks from now, only one thing will count: the goal!
Form is temporary, class is permanent. Just be patient with him, he needs to find his groove and synchronise it with the pace of this team. He's not had the continuity a striker of his level is used to, and that's what made him shaky. Once he finds that momentum and his feet find their rythmn, I assure you, he will be well positioned for the capocannoniere crown. This season marks the return of the king.
Forza Trezegol!
