Juan Cuadrado (78 Viewers)

[Alen]

I wonder why his assists "disappeared" this season. He is yet to make the first assist in 2021/22.
It's kinda strange since in his previous 6 seasons with us, he had more assists than goals in each of those seasons. Last season he had his peak with 17 assists (and only 2 goals). But this season he's not making any assists, and he already scored 3 goals.

Now, the obvious answer would be: Ronaldo's not here anymore. But in the three seasons when Ronaldo was here, Cuadrado made 26 assists and only 6 of those were for Ronaldo. Usually Dybala, Higuain and Mandzukic were Cuadrado's main target, and last year it was Morata. Dybala and Morata are still here, but Cuadrado isn't making any assists. It's a little strange to see Bernardeschi with 4, or Bentancur with 3 assists, and Cuadrado with zero.

Is Allegri using him differently than Pirlo, Sarri, or Allegri himself from 2015-19? Are our strikers missing the chances created for them by Cuadrado? (I don't remember m(any) missed chances this year created by Cuads). Maybe just a coincidence?

Meh, no issue with his celebration. It's a shout out to his country. https://www.salsavida.com/salsa-dance-terms/salsa-choke/

statue outside the stadium instantly

He actually did, but he was humble, and didn't do stupid celebration.

You're being pedantic. Dancing is part of culture, especially in countries like Colombia and the South American continent in general.

Are we going to denigrate every African or South American athlete who chooses to dance after scoring a goal because they're not being stiffs like white Euro cucks who can't dance?

Im saying i dont like it, im not hating on him for doing that. I said in the first post, that I hope to see him do this more often meaning (scoring more goals).

So you're saying our most hated players, Berna and Bentan have 4 and 3 assists respectively.

Throw players into the box and recycle possession to a wide cuadrado was something frequently done last season when chasing a goal. Despite the mixed results this season, we haven't actually spent much time behind and haven't seen as much play through Cuadrado.

Probably doesn't make sense now without Ronaldo in the team anyway. Even if not every cross was going to Ronaldo he is drawing a lot of a attention in a situation like that.

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Just move him to the Legends section already

Cuads is amazing. His dance is amazing. Had a few sub par games in the middle of this season, but it's no coincidence that the team plays better when Cuadrado plays better. That has been proven over and over again the past few seasons.

Unless he's willing to lower his wage by a lot, I'd honestly let him go too. Apart from a few moments of brilliance he's been dreadful all year. Age is catching up to him and it's better to let go too soon than too late.

I think the issue is that quite often he is our one and only attacking player able to create something out of nothing. He is trying to do too much at times, probably because he knows nobody else will.

Doesn't look like you're handling the draw well. There are dozens players thats needs to leave, but not him.

I am handling it horribly and he should still leave unless he accepts a lower wage.

Bite bullets, cut ties, better better to be safe than sorry, better early than late...

Total agreement between Juventus and Cuadrado, together until 2023 (1 year+option of one additional).

[Karim30]

He was the worst player on the pitch in Venezia I reckon.

 

[Adrian]

Happy to keep cuads. We have a lot to offload and replace, he isnt an issue. We need to start thinking about a long term replacement but right now cuads offers versatility on that right side..starting or cover.

He was bad but the worst? There were a lot of competition for that spot, not sure if he even got into my bottom 3
