Fabio Quagliarella (60 Viewers)

[baggio]

And how did he do it in less playing time? Borriello: 27 games(including the games with Roma) Quag: 32 games

And why the hell are we comparing him to Borriello as if anybody thinks highly of him.

Having more games doesn't mean more playing time. Compare the no.of starts and game time. Ita safe to conclude that Borriello has had the most continuity compared to the other strikers on this team, save Vucinic. So you might wanna check the minutes since Borriello has been here. Also, its obvious he'd be compared to Borriello, since Matri, himself and Marco all are vying for the same spot on the team. As for his value, he is worth at least 10-12m, but that value is bound to deflate because he hasn't had sufficient game time and continuity in the season. Especially the first half when Conte took time indicting him into the team 4 months into the season. Next season will be a very different story if he's still here.

I think Quag is a good forward, but just good. I also believe he is way to injury prone and for this we maybe should look long and hard at selling him for whatever we can get

Way too injury prone? He's played 5 seasons or so consistently before his injury last season.

Kinda ironic you posting in the quagliarella thread, Baggio

Why so, BD?! Didn't get that.

His value will not go up. He's average and doesn't particularly excel at anything. Also he'll turn 30 next season.

Doesn't excel at anything Did you even see him play 10/11? He was arguably better Vucinic towards the end of this season. Just in case you need a reminder...

I guess Del Piero should be considered injury prone too.

apparently Quagliarella compares himself to Baggio, maybe Marcelo meant Dino Baggio

Borriello started 11 games, Quag 10.

He doesn't excel at anything. He's not good enough to be an SS and not good enough of a scorer to be the the striker. He's not a good dribbler, not a good finisher(never scored more than 13 goals in the league), not a good creator(0 assists this season), not particularly fast. All he can do is shot balls from 50 meters away but that's a skill he can take somewhere else.

Don't show me that video, he had a good spell for half a season before getting injured. So did Amauri.

 

[baggio]

Ok...he's a huge Baggio fan, he's mentioned it before. You cN tell by the way he loves Alex that he's a humble guy and for him legends have their own place. Did Marcelo tell you who we're buying this summer?

 

[Ibrahimovic9]

Quag has to be the most overrated Juve player on this boards in a long time. I dont see what he brings to the table to be given a free pass all year long. He never gets criticized for contributing little to nothing.

Why don't you translate all these starts and games played into playing minutes? You'll get an idea of what i mean. Look at Matri's stats in the 2nd half of the season. Top score in the team and he hardly had any contribution on the homestretch. It's not because he's not good. It's because he had no continuity or enough game time week in and week out. Next season might help you take off your blinkers hopefully.

And your doesn't excel at anything theory can be sold to the tourists. Quag is better than you make him out to be. And I much rather have somebody as versatile as him on the team than a rugrat like Giovinco. He wants Alex's no.10 jersey.

Basically that we are very interested in Asamoah and that we're scouting for talent in Chile, a 15 year old kid being one of them but we cant sign him till he is 18, for 5 mill

I'm sick and tired of people talking about contributions for a forward who has seen the least game time along with Alex. What are you expecting him to do, take home the MVP trophy?? When people talk about defending Borriello, they say Conte is at the trainings and seeing him working hard, but if we are talking about Quag, we have people asking why he's given a free pass. 4 goals from a striker who didn't play for the first 4 months of the season, and then played in a formation that didn't ideally suit him, shows hes competent enough to be here. And next season, when he's available from the start, he's going to be a different player.

Anything about the strikers, Suarez???

Nice work Baggio

Forza Quag!

oh the irony

He has been banned for 3 Coppa matches for the elbow on Aronica.

It seems like a lot of people are talking him up, but it's really just baggio over every thread

Personally I quite like Quag, although he's a difficult player to pin down as a striker. He's not really a proper centre forward, although he does have decent strength, and he's not creative enough to play as a centre forward. So he's useful in a front 3 or 2, but he needs the ball fed to him rather than expecting him to do it.

What does Giovinco have to do with any of this? You mentioning him because I'm a fan and he's an easy target on this forum?

And his stats are just further proof of what kind of player I think he is. He's not anything special and I'm never impressed with him at all. You're talking about continuity this and that as if he he played like 5 games, he had his fair share of game.. too much if you ask me. He doesn't even deserve continuity because he's not good enough and its not worth it for us to see him out there regularly.

Even if this was true, what would you expect from someone who has been used as a backup? 15 goals?

I don't expect anything from him because I don't think he's that good. And he has gotten 3rd most playing time this season out of all our strikers.

 

[ZoSo]

Out of how many starts?

Point proved.

10/11 = 9 in 17 therefore he could possibly have ended up with a 20 goal season

Cmon Jman, I'm just defending him from criticism when people say he's not good enough or doesn't score enough. It's ridiculous to think that he received criticism even when he wasn't playing and was injured and Conte hadn't drafted him into the squad. I think he's a better player than people make him out to be, and he's a bit of a hybrid that makes him unpredictable. I just feel bad that injury struck him at a time that he could've had a breakthrough season.

You are assuming playing time by number of matches. Borriello and Matri have both played more mins than him. I feel like you're overly critical of the player when you haven't really given him a chance to prove you wrong or right. Just because you don't think he's that good, doesn't mean hes not.

Sorry, but you can't give me any of that "possibly" bullshit. How do you know he wasn't going to go through a slump? He was never consistent as a player, why would he all of a sudden have a 20 goal season?

 

[Lorenzo Juve]

In my humble opinion Quag is a great sub and a decent starter, and with the champions league next year we'll need him, whether you like him or not.
