I wish we go for Montolivo, he's been underperforming in the past two years, but he's obviously talented, and he would fit in like a glove in our system. He'd be a perfect addition.

David Beckham: “I am ready to play right now for the best club in the world.”

Why is he at Meelan so?
“I love my team Los Angeles Galaxy, but for me this is a great experience. Not everyone has managed to play in what everyone considers the best club in the world."

Yeah everyone at Meelan.

Fuckin idiot said the same thing about MU and Real Madrid, so...

Now Del Piero once said: "To me Juve is as great as it gets, and Real fans can cuss at me all they want" :D

If he's underperforming in the last two years, what makes you think that he's a perfect addition for your team?
In 2005/06 and for the bigger part of 2006/07 his first-team chances were limited and he was always just a sub getting some 15-20 minutes, without impressing much.
If he was underperformin after 2006/07 then it means that he was never performing well because before 2007 he wasn't even getting chances to show his worth.

Because theres no questioning his talent. I think the talent is there, it just needs to be nurtured well. I believe Arsene is the right man to do that.


You understood me wrong when i said "underperforming". By that i meant, he wasn't performing up to expectations, not that he wasn't emulating previous performances. For a player of his talent, he never really reached the expectations pinned on him, wouldn't you agree?

Yes, i agree.
Just that Prandelli is also considered to be a coach who knowns how to get the best out of his players, while Montolivo is yet to shine as everyone expects him to. It's hot/cold with him all the time. And Fiorentina is like his second home because he's in Firenze since he was 20. It's there where he grew up as a player, playing under the same coach (who gives him a lot of freedom and who has a lot of trust in him) and with the same teammates.

Lately he's very good actually, he plays as people expected him to, but he had these episodes of playing great in the past also, just so series of bad displays to follow. The problem is that he's very inconsistent and that the bad/average matches outnumber his good matches.
At 23 (24 in 2 weeks) it's allowed though, but his inconsistency doesn't make me so sure that he'll fit perfectly in a team outside Italy.
