Marchisio really wasn't that bad.

We didn't lose away to a strong English team. Good result IMO and if we can beat City at home then we should top the group.

 

[HAZEM]

The ref was pathetic in this game by the way.

he is gay!!

 

[Ventus]

Sissoko was MOM easily IMO

upfront we felt to sluggish and slow, IMO thats are weakest problem. Especially when Krasic ain't playing

 

[X Æ A-12]

Marchisio wasn't terrible but neither was he good. He played like he has so far for most of the season.

 

[X Æ A-12]

Sissoko was great in the first half but fell off in the second.

 

[Toro_Merda]

We were limited with options in attack, that's one of the reasons why I'm pleased with the result.

But..that is a trend, despite the numbers of goals we scored so far..

 

[CAPITANO]

Marchisio really wasn't that bad.

he was, hasn't been the same since WC

 

[Nenz]

Marchisio isn't bad but he does nothing. He didn't tackle, he didn't pass. I never notice him when he plays because he never does anything notable. I hate that people have this mentality that "oh well I didn't notice him so he's not bad". Not doing anything for the team is bad.

 

[Powis]

I love a such Momo!

 

[awit]

I'd be OK with Marchisio being invisible in the games if he was paired with someone like Aquilani. But since he is playing with Melo and Sissoko, he should contribute in attack more.

 

[Zidaninho]

Marchisio really wasn't that bad.

Marchisio gave away ball after ball and was easily shrugged off every time he received it - one of his worst Juve performances

 

[Alen]

As if the game was never played? Our 11 guys running, wrestling, striving for 90 minutes just for a game never played, as u said?

I'm saying it in the sense that we know nothing more compared to what we knew before the match.

 

[BIG DADDY!!!]

but we have the easiest 2 ties next,get 6 points from those and we are looking good

Thats the exact same position we were in last year in the CL

 

[Hydde]

well yeah, and away draw is never a bad thing.

The ref was pathetic in this game by the way.

I second this.

Talk about being easily influenced. The ref that is.

 

[Holdon]

Marchisio really wasn't that bad.

True, because that meant he would've done something to be rated as bad. Unfortunately, he did nothing.

 

[sallyinzaghi]

Well I take heart that our defense finally looked like a unit.

We need to just get through this group stage, having Aquilani and Quag will come in really handy after, I missed them today.

TBH I don't think Martinez was bad considering his match fitness, he backtracked to help out a lot.

And I thought Pepe had a lot of space but no one seemed to pass to him, what a waste.

 

[Stu]

Good result. I expected us to lose and they absolutely dominated the game after we scored so I'll take a point for sure. We were much better defensively than in previous games but I seriously think Del Neri needs to start thinking about benching Marchisio. He doesn't win balls and he doesn't influence attacks. Melo did more in 15 minutes than he did all game.

Manninger - 6
Didn't have that much to do. Made some decent saves from Johnson.

Grygera - 6
I thought he had another solid game. No major errors.

Bonucci - 6.5
Strong showing. Most of City's threat came from wide positions. Our centre backs did well.

Chiellini - 7
My man of the match. In the way of everything.

De Ceglie - 5.5
Not bad. Johnson gave him some problems and he should have been more alert on their goal but he worked hard.

Krasic - 5.5
Disappointing. Should have had a penalty (or two) but he didn't influence the game otherwise.

Sissoko - 6
Typically annoying. Won some balls brilliantly, gave away some needlessly.

Marchisio - 4.5
Did absolutely nothing. He's not a ball winner and he's not a playmaker. What is he?

Martinez - 5
I thought he started pretty well. Faded as the game went on.

Del Piero - 5.5
Not his best game but one thing I liked about his performance was his workrate. He won more balls than Marchisio.

Iaquinta - 6
Scored a great goal. That was about it.

 

[Nenz]

I second this.

Talk about being easily influenced. The ref that is.

Its clear what he thought of Italian football, he was trying to send a message. And Krasic has a reputation for going down easily which would have played a role.
