I was so happy when they got him. It was a low risk high reward move and he was doing so well early in that season. Then Del Neri decided to have him as a deep lying midfielder and it all went downhill
Marchisio played as LM most of that season. He was "nowhere to be seen" because he had losers like Aquilani and Melo absolutely fail in his preferred position.
Marchisio wasn't good enough to claim his position where two idiots absolutely failed?
Marchisio should wake up every day thanking Conte for his career.
Who cares? That was 5 years ago. Who gives a shit anymore? Marchisio wasn't the 25 million Euro signing the previous year. Marchisio wasn't one of the players expected to lead the midfield that season. Marchisio wasn't the one that had the more robust CV up to that point.
You would hope that Melo would have had a better season than Marchisio that year.
