I never ever liked his free kicks and corners in Bundesliga, I can't believe he takes all of them when Giovinco is there who is simply brilliant when it comes to this.

He will do well for us if he's given an easier and more precise role in games like this one. Not only that, the team will function better.

Winger, support striker or central midfielder.

I prefer a 4-3-3 with Diego farther down in central midfield in the CL.

just one question...

why on earth diego never runs forward?! this has been ticking me for so long now..
he recieves the ball, runs there, then stops, goes back to run even more then he did run forward.. and passes it back..
if he dribbles he stops.. and goes abck again..
i never see him running forward with the ball into the free space ...

Maybe because he's too well marked and doesn't get support from his team mates.

Also possibly because he's shite?

Because he's a play maker and they usually don't run but Diego is being placed in the middle and far away from where he should be playing. Don't blame the Diego, blame the one who told him where to play.

How can you bring in a playmaker and then give him no one to pass to on the outsides?

Outside of Iaquinta we have no one that can make a run towards goal and outrun a defender.

Was he that bad last night? I only see 5 minute highlights and seemed he was the only (somewhat) dangerous man on the pitch.

Remarkable really, because he does have a sweet right foot.

He was pretty bad, but at the same time he was pretty much involved in everything we tried, offensively speaking.

exactly! we need players who can bring the ball forward, and diego was brought in to do so. Only giovinco is able to run past the midfield now a days. Its stop and pass football all the way. awful!

The chance he missed was just :sergio:
Ale did very well to deliver it
If that was bundled in, everyone would be praising a new partnership in world football Diego-Del Piero. Even if it was one thing the whole game, the media would've jumped on it.

DIEGO! WHY OH WHY DID YU MISS THAT CHANCE! FUCKIN GUY! SO CLOSE!

His questioning Ciros abilities:

Diego: “It’s not a fitness issue, it is an organisational one,” he told Tuttosport before apparently calling into question boss Ciro Ferrara’s methods.

“Ferrara must identify these problems and explain to us how to solve them because we have to get out of this situation.”

Its not a good sign that he says that publicly. Unless the media stretched his words.
He was right that it's an organisational issue and the whole world can see it. There is absolutely nothing you can call organized, nothing you can call a plan in our game.
Diego just said what most of us here said yesterday. And he said that it's Ferrara's job to fix this.

Nothing scandalous at all about what he said and I support him for saying the truth publicly.
