i don't really care anymore. if he was not getting playtime because the count does value de chickenly higher, than its a lost case anyways.
playing grosso or de ceglie does not really make much difference. while de ceglie might be younger (i don't know yet what that actually brings to the table for him) grosso at least can cross and shoot and is greasy enough to slip through defences
just watch that goal and imagine de ceglie breaking the chicken bones he calls legs by trying it
de ceglie and grosso are both restricted in their ability to defend. de ceglie because he can't know off a fly with his body strength and grosso because he is probably to slow/old
