another poor half
who is playing as a LM for us ?
Well, not
that poor. I honestly think we got the better of Torino in this half. We created some good chances, and a couple of massive ones only thwarted by the heads-up play and perfect placement of Torino's keeper. Otherwise, the only threats Torino has made have largely come from a misplayed ball (Molinaro's lame header to clear) and general confusion on the part of Manninger and/or Chiellini in tandem.
Amauri is playing great. In fact, the problem later in the first half was that we didn't get him enough touches. There was one play where he got quadruple teamed -- and unlike what a Zlatan would do, he kicked it out perfectly to a charging Momo who just skyed it over goal.
There's not too much I would change with this setup at this stage. De Ceglie is playing LM and not too effectively, so Giovinco, if healthy, would be a great sub.
Otherwise, Momo and Amauri seem to be playing best for us. Behind them being Nedved and, surprisingly, Marchionni is having one of his better games (which is about 10% the quality of an on-form Camoranesi).
