at best, he has some dog of war potentiall, and is able to pass in a straight line. For free, on low wages, in place of a departing Momo, would be a decent move. We lack bite the team over. Ites been a worsening, unaddressed problem, for many years now. And it ties in with some of Tachinardi's recent words in an interview. I take most thing he said with a handful of salt, but still, he was spot-on when referring to the arrogance, the embracing of been despised, of his former Juve from his playing days.
Those players felt above all other teams, on an equal playing field to only the leading clubs from england, spain or germany. they oozed well earned pride. And there was a defiance in their single spirit, pulsing as one, in the face of any hint of defeat. THAT was what solidified my larval love for the club in the 90s. And its been ebbing away since 2006. slowly but surely.
We lack players of that station. Its something that costs huge to purchase, and is equally expensive, in terms of time, to fashion out of those with potential. for now, we need more heart, quality, passion and awareness of what the shirt means. Pepe is a layer who always gives his all, but in the positions he plays, thats rarely enough to make him competent. Pazienza, is a player who seems to give his all, regularly enough to make him competent in the position he plays. Momo is finished with us. Perhaps he can prosper elsewhere, i hope so, as i like his style...pure beast. often taking out his own players with a tackle that also crunches two opponents, yet wins the ball...only to then overhit a 5 yard pass, by 50 yards to the left...
