The point of my post was, where is the depth that you praised Marotta for?

So if your depth players are not as good as your starting eleven, you don't need them?

Exactly.

To be honest, we have no depth to compare them with the starters.

 

[Lapa]

I put Vidal and Hernanes in the even-ish category.

You must be high.

Should have just went with an 11-man squad, then.



It amazes how me how 1 "bad" month makes people lose all perspective. Just more proof that football fans are extremely fickle, I guess.

 

[JCK]

Exactly because fielding Peluso, Padoin, Giaccherini and the likes is like starting with 7 men.

 

[Red]

Maybe but then again we lost at home to Sampdoria, one of the worst sides of the league.

Meh.

The odd loss against lesser sides is always likely to happen over the course of a season.

 

[j0ker]

Most of our starting players are just too good that's why the difference between them and our reserves is so big.

 

[JCK]

Exactly and we go back to my initial comment that no one seems to be doing anything to fix that.

I was told I acccepted losing to teams like Sampdoria when I said this.

 

[ZoSo]

Or our starters (besides fowards) are very good and our depth is less than average.

Fix what?

That players are human and go through good periods and bad periods over the course of a season?

Well, I was expecting Juve to go unbeaten every season, since they did it last year...

Because when we lost to Sampdoria you hammered us, we are leading the table, we are in the second stage of the CL and we are in the Coppa semi final. When this week we lose to Chievo you will tell us that we share the lead with a GREAT Napoli and we are in the second stage of the CL.

No because when the system is not bringing results because the players are having a bad period, you do something to change it.

That too, but we still have Pogba, Caceres who I wouldn't call average.

And there's no single team in Serie A who has better depth than us, most of them have average starters and shit back-ups that why no one notices when they miss their starters.

Thanks for telling me what I will say if we lose to Chievo. You mind telling me the lottery numbers for tonight as well?

Or have confidence the same players who brought us 8 points ahead of the rest and won their CL group, can bounce back and retake serie a first place.

Wait, we are still there. YES thats how good we were the first half of the season, and how good we will be when the right players are fit

I can't predict that because it is random, human behaviour though usually has a pattern.

There were a lot of reserves playing, but still creating more and outperforming Lazio over two legs. It came down to inefficiencies in the end, look at Giovinco and Marchisio in that second leg.

 

[ZoSo]

That too, but we still have Pogba, Caceres who I wouldn't call average.

And there's no single team in Serie A who has better depth than us, most of them have average starters and shit back-ups that why no one notices when they miss their starters.

Pogba, Quag, Pepe, Matri and Isla (in Udinese form) are our only above average depth imo.

 

[Fr3sh]

Quag, Matri and Isla are above average but Carceres is average/below-average

Anyways if Napoli do get Naingolan they'll be a force in both Calcio and Europe, Insigne will only get better Cavani, Hamsik and De Sanctis are all close to being world class players (Cavani already is). A replacement for Maggio who's been kinda meh lately and a few depth signings for the D they'll be scary competition and they'd fuck shit up in Europe too.
