Gonna be our capitano often this season according to Sarri...

@Sarriball
Thoughts?

Only if he starts he will be a captain. Don't worry De Ligt will bench his ass.

I don’t know. Sarri might be worse than Allegri for trusting new youngsters.

He'll have no choice after Bonucci causing most of the goals.

@Post Ironic I did dislike Allegri in his last two seasons but I no one can take away that from him, he did start youngsters, Coman, Bentancur

Dybala too. He was the only bright spot in that disaster start to 15-16. And Morata for that matter.

See I forgot Dybala and Morata.

Dybala is by far the player I’m most curious to see under Sarri. I’m hoping he can get a bit of his pace and energy back that he had in his first couple seasons here. He looked slow and lethargic far too often the last 18 months.

Big teams have done this fairly frequently.

Of course he will start, and I believe fairly soon, but expecting him to be full-time starter from match day 1 shall just lead to much irritation here.

I'd say we shall see a lot of rotation on the backline this season, even with Sarri the non-rotating manager, both due to injuries and because of having so much quality to choose from.

Bonucci and rugani are not "quality" theres 3 good CBs to pick from.

Oh please. If Bonucci gets back to his best he’s one of the top CBs in football as he was from 14-15 to 16-17. Obviously that’s the hope as long as he is here.

Big IF. Bonucci of the past two seasons is a liability. By the end of the season, I suspect Demiral to stake a claim for a starting spot next to De Ligt.

For the love of god please leave

Are we now hoping that players pick up the form they had 2-3 years ago?

That's pretty bad planning IMO.

Not to mention the only reason Bonucci looked good is because he had Barza and Chiellini at a time they were still in their primes. He’s a mediocre defender.

Mentioned it last week. We are hoping that a 19 year old WC talent can manage not only the backline, but the blunders Bonucci & Cancelo are bound to make. That's risky. Let's hope Chiellini stays fit and Demiral stays.

Demiral looks like a real defender, a man in defense, a solid rock. None of that pussified shit Rugani serves us on a consistent basis, or the typical Bonucci brainfarts that we are exposed to every once in a while. Like I said, by season's end, I anticipate the CB order to be Chiellini, De Ligt, Demiral, Bonucci, and Rugani bringing up the rear.

I'd sell Bonucci. Older and high wages
The difference with Demiral would be 11years and 4m net wages
So Sell if possible.

Bonucci and De Ligt are both great with the ball on the feed.
Demiral is a beast defensively. But how good is he on the ball ?
