I certainly don't think it could possibly hurt our attack to have him starting with Matri. Conte must have a reason for not starting him, though I'm hard pressed to guess why.

post #56061 has the answer.

 

[K.O.]

Yes and it's a correct answer.

It sucks to see Ale without the captains armband, and then only getting 10 minutes.

 

[Vinny Del Pogba]

the (one) correct thing the FSC commentators said tonight, Conte did not want to play Alex because he knows he will succeed and win you matches, therefore calls for him to start would increase.

I watched it on ESPN3 so I did not catch that comment during the game, but why on earth would Conte not want Ale to win matches for him? I don't understand the thought process behind this comment. Someone please enlighten...

because if Ale does well - which of course he will - then he will become indispensable to the team again.

hardly in line with all this 'new Juve' bullshit and with a player who is being pushed out.

I bet we would have won scudetto already by now if DP was playing and Conte doesn't want that - total nonsense.

I agree with you for the first time.

 

[Ahmed]

Yes you're right he's too old and not good enough anymore.

I'm not saying it. The nonsense part is that Conte is intentionally sacrifaces the title just so DP wouldn't play. DP is certainly good enough and can be a really great impact sub if given enough minutes to be sharp enough.

Have a quick scan and see who brought the word 'title' into the discussion.

Well we would have done better, well what is better ten our current situation?

Making quick subs and reacting when our team is struggling?

Well I can't disagree with that. But the notion that it is done on purpose is crazy to me.

Are you suggesting conte is dumb?

I would suggest you to reread if you came up with this conlcusion.

That's a nonsense theory from that commentator, whoever he is.

First of all, if it was true then why did Conte play Del Piero yesterday? What if Del Piero won us the match? Then again Conte would have had to play him, wouldn't he?

Conte would kill to win the scudetto and if he thinks that Del Piero is the answer to winning the scudetto, then he'll play him non stop.

At least the are some people who still make sense in this thread.

Then Conte would say:"I told you he'll help us, I know how and when to use him" and yada yada yada.

But if Ale starts, shines and we lead 2-0\3-0 in HT, people will say:"The fucking fuck...where was this guy before?", and then Conte will have to play him much more.

For conclusion- if you give him 10 mintues and he scores, you'll have to give him 10 mintues again. If he starts and shines, you must start him again. That's the difference. You can make people forget quickly about 10 mintues and one goal, but not about an impact a player had on the team for a whole match.
