That's the whole reason behind my question in Marotta's thread. Can you see DN playing him? :D
He doesn't look like somebody who'd play him next to his 'all-hail' Marchisio, Melo and Aquilani. Maybe in some random and unimportant matches.

Sorensen gets to play but I guess that's because our right back options are beyond terrible.

If the kid is good, then he will get the minutes. It's up to him to show that he is worth it or not

Now, I wonder if we'll destroy him.

If we'll keep him on the bench all time or we'll actually play them.
I don't believe in all this destroying thing. If a player is good enough to perform with a big club then he will.
Giovinco shouldn't be brought in this argument, performing with Parma where there is no pressure, is different from playing for Juve where players are under constant pressure to get results and scrutinized for the little mistakes

I bet we see him in some games next year. Especially if the injuries keep plaguing us like they have been for 4 seasons now.

So, you wanna say that over the past 6 years in Italy there wasn't any good young player who could become big? That's nonsense. Young players were destroyed and still are being destroying, which is a fact.

Well Gabriel is already a step ahead of his brother, but Guilherme looks to have some great diving to win freekick potential :D
:lol:

I noticed that too...he learned the trade at a young age. Perfect time to develop it in time for Italy.

They are mostly over hyped young Italian players. If you are good to play and can handle the pressure, then you will get the chance. A lot of young players were given the chance and have excelled, Pastore, Pato, Sanchez, IIlicic, Jovetic. They are young, but they were given a chance and they proved to be worth it, so they kept playing. If you can't perform, then you sit on the bench unless you prove otherwise, simple as that. Totti, Del piero, Vieri, Canavaro, Gigi, were all starting at young age and were definitely worth it and proved on the pitch. Young players are given chances in Italy, but you can't expect them to keep playing if they aren't performing

Well, depends if he gets an honest shot but by the time he gets through all the loans (if he even makes it that far) marrone should be ahead of him already.

Yes, but are talking about Italian talents. I refuse to believe that out of all schools from every single team, there hasn't been any player worth of playing or buying. Manchester bought two Roma's kids that are supposed to be great and now they chase more of them.

Explain this. How many chances did we give to Marrone, Ekdal, Immobile, Rossi, Iago? Who exactly gives them those chances? I know some great potential that Roma had, he was loaned out to some Serie B team but despite his talent and everything he was kept on the bench. Some guy who was over 30 played instead of him and he was never given a chance, even in that shit club. So who offers them those chances?

18yo Messi wouldn't be placed in any Serie A team, neither would C.Ronaldo at that age simply because they are young and don't posses so hailed experience. You know what some guy said when Menez moved to Roma? He said he was too young for Serie A and how he should've stayed at France for two more season. To make things worse, he was/is some kind of expert. Giovinco is an example of destroying.

I refuse to believe that NO talents were born in Italy that had one of the (and still is in the top) strongest teams in the World.
