Encouraging to see but I think the stats are showing how reliant a team is on each player rather than how good they are e.g. Rovella creates 19% of Genoa's chances, which would be impressive if they create a lot of chances. I genuinely don't know if they do or not but I suspect probably not.
But impressive to be a key player in a Serie A side at his age.
This is true. However, you need to watch him play, he's literally their engine and he became one while being 19 years old.
He clearly stands out over there, all the players pass to him all the time, they trust him a lot. His passing and style is actually suited to playing forward a lot, even if he tends to start from very deep positions.
This kid has proper papers to be a top mid in Serie A IMO. His downside is lack of physicality but he runs a lot/covers a lot of ground. He's hard to dispossess, good crosses (right foot) and good corners/free kicks from longer distances (I mean here crosses, not shooting).
Juve and Max really need to plan a place for him here next season. He cost us a lot in the end but with low wages and long contract (+Italian), we have one of the most exciting young CMs in Italy. I can easily see him being Locatelli's deputy and we're badly missing one right now.
