Wow we owned this guy for like 4 years and he never played for us. If he was too consistently poor to make a squad that had De Ceglie in it he must have really sucked tho

Wow...that was gazillion aeons ago.

Poor man... he pactically got wasted with us in his best years XD.

I dont know who was the moron who suggested to buy him in first place
it was probably a joint decision between Del Neri and Marotta since they worked with him at sampdoria and Juve needed a left back at the time, if my memory serves me right we secured the deal months before he actually made the move by then Del neri had been sacked and Conte was stuck with this shit heap

:lol:

Thanks, no thanks, Reto!

In truth, we could have used him at the time. We spent what, half a decade without a single decent LB? Ridiculous.

How times have changed!

Didn't he get dropped for totally non technical reasons too? I remember reading that Conte overheard him complain about a training session or something and blacklisted him from the team permanently. :lol:

Conte :touched:

idk probably just wasn't Conte's sort of player. undisciplined winger who don't track back? Conte don't want none of that shit.
He played CB the last 4 seasons, so I don't think it was because he doesn't track back. Defensively he's quite solid.
I thought it has happened something different and Conte just wanted to get rid of him, because he had either personal differences with him or he wasn't happy with this transfer, so he made a sign to the Marotta clan, that he wants to have a say in transfer things. :boh:
