thats the best part

untill today, tracking back is unneccecary, and we need a rightwinger that has offensive skills !

when its elia who fails, its still good because he "tracked back"

fuck that shit, we lost the rightflank when pepe went off
I just think it's funny that it is used as a stick to beat Pepe with, yet a positive in this instance.

Either way, I like to see wingers do that when required, so I'll credit both Elia and Pepe for doing so. Other than that he did what I expected from the player in the time allowed, not a lot.

He offered no less than Borriello or Padoin, I would actually like to see him get a game from the first minute. Or at least consecutive sub appearances.

His very first involvement in the game was exactly that. Stop complaining.
OKAY


elia fans, make up your fucking mind

is pressing efficiently, recovering balls, a part of the tasks of the rightwingers or not ?


if it is, pepe can be credited for it aswel

if it isnt, it cant be brought up as an argument for the defence of elia when his offence is total shit

make up your minds

20 matches, 20 minutes or 2 minutes, it was enough to confirm again that he's one of the less intelligent players in Juventus. It was obvious even at the WC when half the world was jerking off while watching him.

I can't blame Conte for playing him today. We needed a goal and we had to try something new. But I surely won't blame him for not playing him this season. Conte actually did him a favor because the Juventini would have hated this kid if he got to play more often.

P.S: The only valid question here is: Why did we buy him at all?

Pressing and tracking back is two completely different things. If you have offensive skill then pressing is the way to go, but if you have nothing to offer with the ball on your feet than tracking back and spending time around the defense is the only thing you can bring to the table.

From what I've seen today, he has terrible positioning and no sense and understanding of the game flow. I don't like where from he starts his runs and he is very reckless.

I want a winger who can press and not track back. If we had someone like Robben or even Messi, we wouldn't be asking him to track back. We'd surely expect him to put pressure but not spend time next to the defense. Pepe can track back and spend time next to Licht because his offensive game isn't good enough.

Do you even watch Pepe?
