Diego Ribas da Cunha (88 Viewers)

i wouldn't call it an unbelievable performance, but he provided the assist and was in the centre of everything, a decent first game. i hope he can keep his level consistent throughout the game in the future, seemed a bit tired in the second half, just like his teammates. can't wait to see him combining with Alex in front of him and Camoranesi behind him, gotta be the hottest thing Serie A has expierienced for ages.

Nice first half from the brazilian. He's what have we been missing for a long time. Very talented and comfotable with the ball, It would be nice to reduce the amount of joga bonito stuff he tries to do through the match.

Diego really knows how to win over the crowd.

Apart from being involved in every single play, there were 2 moments where he ran his ass off to keep the ball in and prevent a Chievo throw-in, and both times the crowd voiced their appreciation loudly

Great first match from Diego.



Dude, your head is up your ass. That's awesome!

By the way, noticed how much slimmer Diego is now?

The commentator brought this up as well, he said that probably the training in Italy is very much different than in Germany because he looks lighter and fitter.

Italian coaches are known for making players run until they fall over. Zidane in particular has said a couple of times that the precampionato with Juventus was horrible .

Decent performance by Diego but wouldn't go overboard in calling it excellent. He had a few nice dribbling moves and assisted the only goal. A 7.5 from me.

He's so good at delivering the ball to the box and with players like Amauri and Iaquinta waiting like rabid dogs, it's just what you need.

i would call it decent but not excellent too.

The truely excellent stuff will happen when he links up with Camo, Melo and ofcourse Del Piero. Why can't it be Sunday right now?

Not to forget that he's a real impact power midfielder that will get into double figures,something this team needed real bad & that will make the difference in winning the league.

More than decent I'd say, especially for a debut, but not as brilliant as some say. Though I hardly blame him for it, the whole midfield and attack went down in the second half and took Diego with him. But he was full of ideas even in the second half and the only one trying something, but the attackers were not following him enough. When he gels with the attack, things could get fiery. I just fear how we will fare when he gets injured.

But the biggest plus I'd give him, is heart. I don't know was it the atmosphere and the fans that kept chanting him, but his work rate was impecable. I like to see that in a fantasista. If not for Canna, he'd probably be my MOM.

That's what I like about him. The type of player that returns back to either get the ball/kill his opponents counter attack.

 

[Ken]

In that match last night, I remember this scene where he was basically playing RB after someone lost the ball and Chievo counter-attacked.
Grygera came running/jogging back from midfield...

Guy's a monster in our midfield, with great vision, great positioning and a superb touch. We just need the likes of Melo, Momo behind him to form more of a wall so he gets more freedom. Then having Camo beside him pretty much, DP upfront...
