Rodrigo Bentancur (23 Viewers)

[Strickland]

You're right that we won almost every match when these 3 started together. Statistically, it does look good, but I'm trying to remember these matches, and on most of them we were really bad/terrible, despite the wins.

62 minutes against Spezia (2:1 with them; 4:1 FT)
27 minutes against Atalanta (0:0 with them; 1:1 FT)
62 minutes CL against Ferencvaros (1:1 with them; 2:1 FT)
19 minutes against Sassuolo (0:0 with them; 3:1 FT)
78 minutes against Bologna (2:0 with them, 2:0 FT)
75 minutes against Sampdoria (1:0 with them; 2:0 FT)
83 minutes SUPERCOPPA Napoli (1:0 with them; 2:0 FT)
Last 10 minutes against Napoli (0:1 with them; 2:1 FT)
Last 15 minutes against Genoa (0:0 with them; 3:1 FT)
73 minutes against Parma (3:1 with them; 3:1 FT)

They haven't played together in Coppa Italia.

In general we've looked good in only a handful matches this season lol - consistently good was the run that happened around Coppa Italia legs with Inter + some big games here and there like the 2nd leg against Barca. Most of those matches included Arthur and McKennie, Pirlo doesn't seem capable to work out a functional midfield system without them. And I'm not saying those 3 guys were top mids this season or anything close to that, they just seem to compliment each other unlike our other mids.

I honestly blame the Pirlo's system for it, as the midfield is put under unnecessary pressure with the ball and has to cover large amount of ground with the team not moving up and down as a unit, hence the need for Arthur and McKennie types.

Awful player

Didn't watch, but I agree.

Him and Rabiot are two of the dumbest professional footballers I’ve ever seen.

This guy is absolutely stealing a living passing himself off as a pro footballer.

 

[DanielSz]

IQ of a pinecone.

He makes Disco Stu look like a footballing genius

Honestly, would take a Sturaro-Lemina midfield pair over Bentancur-Rabiot any day of the week

Swap for Asensio

 

[Mandzukic17]

Still remeber days when people were saying he is world class.

They both won't be playing for Juventus next season?

Wat? Bentancur has a fraction of the talent and intelligence of Marchisio

That is what people called him last year

I still think he can be a decent player, but he will never be good enough for a team with aspirations to be among the best in Europe.

That's why we bought him, amico mio.

I even wanted him to be our next no 6.

I'm really disappointed, mostly from myself.

Would make for a good 8th choice CM at Spartan Moscow.

 

[Snobist]

With a proper coach he was excellent player.

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

"Excellent" is a stretch. He scored 2 goals and had 3 assists that season.

If Pirlo understood that one sentence we would still be in CL and be in first place or two points behind merda.

Pirlo is the type of guy, if a school was on fire, he'd try to save the kids one by one in alphabetical order to make sure he got them all..

It's fucking kaos already, why introduce a useless "hybrid" system to complicate shit further?
All it would take to compete with merda would be simple organization and planning. Pirlo has zero practical sense.

This whole team needs discipline.
