i scrolled through that profile and it looks like this is the most liked tweet of the last 24 hours
anyway, locatelli will always be controversial. it's not his fault that he's not a new pirlo/pjanic we badly need. he's not to blame for the inability of the management to assemble a functioning midfield. but facts are facts for both his haters and admirers: in some metrics, he's at or near the top of the league, and at the same time, he cannot assist, cannot dribble, cannot create, cannot score. in recent memory we're used to midfielders who can actually score and assist: vidal, marchisio, pirlo, pjanic, pogba, khedira, even that lazy bum rabiot were able to contribute in attack. locatelli isn't. so he'll be blamed for his attacking impotence until the end of his career. that's his cross to bear
from jj's pov though, he's a symptom, not a cause
