I've stopped bothering, he's clearly trolling Patrick. Have you read his comments in the Notts' game thread? Laugable from someone who tells others to grow up. :lol:

Had a decent game, nothing special though, but you can't really expect players to go all out in a game like that. Didn't get as many balls as he would've liked but didn't lose possession often, unless he ran the ball out of play. :D

He's been travelling all week and has spent 1 day in Turin before this game.. it'll only get better. I hope, and think, he'll perform for us. Atleast some people were able to see he's rather skillful on the ball and doesn't have that heavy first touch Pepe or Krasic have.
I have this thing called man crush on you Ken. :sheik:

Most skill on our team besides Del Piero. It's rare to see someone get such separation from his marker while dribbling like he managed to do before that cross to Pepe. He really left his marker somewhere else.

    i wasn't all that impressed with elia, his reading for potential off ball runs were poor, when matri had slipped a nice through ball for elia, he stood there and made the run late. estigaribia looked more lively and linked up better.
    that was a very weak ball of matri

    With all these new non-Italian players, it makes you think it would be hard in your first few weeks of training not understanding what the heck your coach is saying

    Spain and Germany are ahead any other NT at this point.


    Vision, pass, intelligence, ball control, technique... really? Seriously, really? And I'm sure I'm forgetting some aspects. You can say he has more pace, explosivity, athleticism and probably some more skills, but that's not everything. Anyway, this is stupid, because they're not even the same type of player.

    What's Giovinco's wrong attitude? Being kicked in the ass by his club and still begging for a starter spot when he has quality to have that starter spot? Or is it the NT statements where he states the truth (he's there thanks to Parma)?

    Will people please stop fapping Giovinco? This homegrown player worshipping has to stop. If Giovinco was as good as people here make him, he wouldn't be playing for Parma .
