I never rated him to begin with. He was never that good - for there to be a decline, there needs to be some level of consistency at the highest level. We've never seen that from him - he's been consistently shit.
Of course Failegri is to blame for a lot of things- asinine formation, zero progress or development in the attacking phase, ridiculous substitutions, deploying players out of position, and passive approach to games for example, but I'm not sure Suckatelli's overall level of play is one of them.

He might be viewed as good enough if he was to be considered mainly for depth or as the 1st option from the bench to close games out as defensively he usually puts in a decent shift but otherwise should surely not be the main man leading in midfield given how wasteful and inconsistent he is, lesser so as an improvised regista, guy is just not cut out for it as he has too many limitations.
The absolute drizzling shits. One of the worst performances I’ve seen from a Juventus midfielder since the Tiago and Almiron days. Got turned constantly, kept passing the ball to the opposition, looked slow as a tortoise. I don’t think he’s a world beater and never will be, but I refuse to believe he is this bad. He looked semi-competent under different coaches in his career. And I’m convinced we have ZERO coaching in terms of positioning, tactics, passing, schemes etc this season.
Tbh a good chunk of his best games here came mainly against midtable teams or relegation level opposition, can hardly ever remember him putting in a semi dominant performance against top quality teams, not that the rest of the team actually helps in those games but just by judging his individual performances he often is a weak link when it matters most, far from being a leader in midfield.
Locatelli 5 – Juventus didn’t move the ball quickly enough. Should have helped the defence more when Juventus took the lead.
Read this from one of the player ratings for yesterday. Appears this is the MO with this team in general. Especially hurting us in the midfield where I believe that's the most important area to be quickly decisive offensively. Defenses have that extra second to defend. If anyone like to differ/add, please do so. Not near the most knowledge poster here.

Locatelli is terrible.
I have to laugh at myself now for hating on Khedira, Matuidi and Pjanic.
Although they were the beginning of our also decline in midfield they were still miles better than what we have now.
A major issue over the years has been that anytime we sold a player we never replaced them with anyone better except for a small number of times..
