He had a very good match, it must be said.

But we know what happens next.

30M.

Really good match missed a open pass to kean which could have resulted in a goal.

 

[Lancelot]

Good game.

Obviously Aston Vila representative was in the stands

 

[Boksic]

To be fair to him, he played well against Udinese too.

He is finally playing in a role that plays to his strengths and importantly limits his weaknesses. Playing a covering role behind Dybala, Cuadrado and Locatelli suits him as long as he isn't needed to build the game from the back.

Really good match missed a open pass to kean which could have resulted in a goal.

he knew Kean wouldn't be able to control the ball anyways.

btw our best player today , Rugani was good too .

He's not here to score goals. He's here to do what he did well today. He's had some brain farts last few years but being only 24 and cheap no need to give up on him.

 

[vodka]

Ah shit, he used his 1/2 good game a season tokens. Hopefully next one will be v villarreal

I too wouldn’t give up on him. Especially after the matchup against Porto last season

You're out of luck then, because he also had a good game against Udinese.

 

[s4tch]

now that's something new.

 

[Elvin]

In retrospective, that Boca deal was one of the worst deals ever.

 

[juve123]

Yesterday Aston Villa's head scout was at the game to watch Bentancur. (Romeo Agresti)

now that's something new.

Any info on the amounts?

 

[juve123]

Juventus have not received an official bid for Bentancur, they know Aston Villa are interested. I think it's difficult to imagine that a player who is a starter for Juventus sees himself play for Aston Villa.(Romeo Agresti)

 

[s4tch]

Any info on the amounts?

there's a 2.4m payment to boca in the latest financial report...

 

[IliveForJuve]

Boca still laughing at us probably

 

[abstract]

20 mil from a PL club, that never happens anymore, they pay 30-40 mil for complete garbage players. Tells you everything about this guy.

He's doing a solid defensive job, and he's doing it quietly, but it is not appreciated because he's a terrible passer and due to his brain farts from last year.
This season (per 90 minutes stats) he is in top 10 in serie A among the midfielders in tackles (4th), interceptions (2nd) and aerials won (8th). These are excellent defensive stats for a midfielder. The other midfielders, at least in some categories, also have solid defensive stats. For example, Locatelli is 1st in the league among the midfielders in blocked shots, while McKennie is 5th in the same category. Rabiot is 5th among the midfielders in won aerials.

But once it comes to their offensive input, then our guys don't even make the top 10 in the league. This is best seen in the "key passes" category, i.e in chances created. Our best "key passer" is 30th in serie A among the mids. All our midfielders together create 3.1 chances in one match, which means they make 3.1 passes per 90 minutes which lead to a shot on target. Calhanoglu alone makes 3.4 key passes per 90 minutes, while Inter's midfield (Calhanoglu, Barella, Brozovic, Vidal) makes 7 key passes per 90 minutes. They create 4 more chances than our midfielders per 1 match.

Someone like Pogba on that left side instead of Rabiot/McKennie and, of course, a top striker, would make what Locatelli and Bentancur do defensively look much better and more appreciated.
