I don't get what people see in Boateng. His physique and athleticism are his main attributes. Ball control, passing, all the other stuff that make you a good player are missing from his repertoire. He pulls off some cool touches sometimes but so does Pepe, that doesn't mean shit. Watch actual games instead of highlights and you'll see he's not impressive.

I would play nesta in thiago silva's place . Cavani - Ibra is not a good pair in my opinion . Boateng shouldn't be up there , i would choose marchisio over him any day of the week , still he plays as a trequartista , why do people in this forum insist changing the postition of players and expecting nothing to happen (if i remeber correctly allegri said once in an interview that boateng is learning a new position as a cmf and that will take time , still not everybody can play everywhere just because they are good at playing in one position) . Boateng plays as a trequartista and it is clear as day that he is not the fantasy type of trequartista , he offers muscle and running . Playing at cmf you need to be much more tactically aware and smart . I would choose a lot of other players before him for a cmf spot and i would choose another player for a trequartista spot if i had too .
As i said before i am pretty sure that if boateng was in any other big team in europe he would have a tough time finding a starter spot , but he can easily do that with allegri seeing as he has turn milan's middfield to cagliari's middfield
