Pepe on Sørensen:
"He has proved to be ideal. He trains well, is a serious guy. He has a personality, bordering on cockiness." In fact, says Pepe, "a couple of times I told him to pass the ball but he did not listen and crossed instead..." :D

Fine line on whether cockiness is good in young players.

It means they are more likely to be able to cope with the initial pressure of playing in the first team, but, in my experience, they are also less likely to keep working hard to improve.

To be fair C. Ronaldo was surely one of the cockiest youngsters and works unbelievably hard in training.

But I see where you are coming from, especially in Britain.

From what I saw in the Roma match, apart from a few loose passes which is to be expected from an 18 yr old playing at the highest level, this guy is definitely a solid defender

Pepe himself is clearly a cheeky fucker...so he was most likely using 'cockiness' in a warm way...as he would hope to have it used by others to describe Pepe.

Well he is only 18, and i think that for him to be able to withstand the pressure f serie A and to play decently at his young age is something wonderful. Lets hope he willonly improve because we all now is VERY rare to see youngstaers receiving more than one chance in juventus, specially unknown ones. He has been lucky because of the injuries, but if DN has seen soemthing in him, i just can hope he will continue giving him more minutes.
