That's why he was destroying Serie a teams for Parma and was so good that Juventus have paid 45m for him?
Yes he was world class for parma that is why we signed him for 35 million euros + 9 million potential bonuses. But then again playing for juve has different pressure to parma Or Tottenham even Bentancur is looking a world beater.

Pirlo and Allegri didn't utilise him well. No point trying to blame it on the 'openess' of bpl when he made his name here in Serie A at Parma
To be fair Parma played with far more space front of them than Juve did. It is the same reason why Gervinho would often go on long runs. That wouldn't happen here where teams often sit back.

Kulu had flashes of quality whether it was shooting or putting in the occasional good cross but often looked sluggish and took poor touches. I'm still not convinced he can break down teams that sit in and defend for the majority of the game. Time will tell, he seemed a nice guy I'm glad he is doing well.

Even with all the problems in the european tournaments, Conte is an elite coach

No point beating around the bush and pretending its something that it isn't. Pirlo and Allegri didn't/aren't getting the best out of the players, that's why last season and this season are considered failures. None of this is new.

Over time we will see how big of a miss this is. He is in the form of his life and has lots of momentum as does his team (they've collected more points than all sides except Pool & City since Conte joined).

Once things stabilize we a bit well see what he is like on average. I am not sold on him as world class yet. It's too soon
