His playmaking skills do not amaze me.....he didnt do anything special by now in Euro(Neddy and Poborsky do all the work). Even his form in Dortmund isnt something they hoped for.
Guy is fast(i have to admitt that),good technique but no real dribble ability and he is an average passer(from what I have seen,maybe someone can correct me) and a lousy shooter. Plus to that; he is fragile,he misses 1/3 season over last two seasons in Dortmund. Considering how tough SerieA is....I wouldnt give that guy a chance(IMO). And it seems that Neddy is playing a tournament of his lifetime....lets hope he will repeat it in next season. Rosicky can be his sub,nothing more.

Deco is class above.....and if anyone watched Diego few times he would say the same. Comparing Diego to Rosicky is like comparing Zidane to etc...Perotta???
It seems he has been told to work more on the defence during this euro campaign... If U had seen him i.e. the friendlies/q-games U wouldn't question his play-making abilities, nor his shooting and his passing skills!!! :rolleyes:

he is fragile and misses 1/3 of the Bundesliga?
well going by that I guess even we have to sell many of our players!
heck many players in serie a should move!

Deco, great player I agree! but one day great the other like he has faded!
Everything needs to go by him when he is on the pitch...

Dammn....even Igor Tudor was great in q-games and friendlys but NOW is a time when you have to perform and all that Ros does is looking for Neddy and Poborsky. I watched all the games of Euro and onley one time he tooked the ball and acted like a playmaker.

My point was: If he is injured so much in Germany...how would he handle 100% tougher leauge??

For Portugal maybe(after all,he is not a Portugese) but in CL...he did wonders. And also to be mentioned: Portugal started to play real football from the moment he entered the game. Even RuiCosta sits on the bench in his favour

Do you mean tougher or rougher? Because i think it's 'rougher' in Germany but 'tougher' in Italy.

And, I personally feel that Rosicky has been playing great, especially considering he's had to play as an almost DM for most of the tourny for the Czech's. His playmaking and passing have been very good IMO. No, he hasn't made the final critical pass to Baros for the score but he has been vital for the early build up for most of these scoring opportunities. Plus his work rate and stamina have been phenomenal. And, I have been very surprised by his solid tackling ability.

As for Deco, there is no doubt of his skills. However, he is a turnover machine as he always attacks at players and looks for a foul. If he doesn't get it, the opposing team goes on the counter attack. And, he's definantly not as complete as Rosicky despite him being 3 years older.

I've always been a fan of Rosicky but his injuries have worried me.


Then i started thinking about Juve's luck with injuries.

The injury list last season before the Depor game was worse than normal. We just got unlucky.

Del Piero, Montero, Trezeguet, Tudor and maybe Thuram are the only players who get frequently injured - Montero and Tudor will be replaced this season and Trezeguet will probably head out as well. One more striker will be signed in that case who will most likely be young and injury-free.

That leaves us with Del Piero and Thuram whos injuries we just have to put up with. Theres no getting around that. Its almost inevitable that Del Piero will be injured seriously at least once during the season and will end up missing a month.


But we have Miccoli as replacement and hardly any quality is lost.

If Jankulovski is signed, we won't miss Del Piero's freekicks either (Nedved can take some pretty good ones as well).

That leaves us with Thuram ... but we have Zebina as replacement. He may not be the greatest but he had a good season with Roma last time around and I think Capello can get the best out of him.




Moral of the story - We can afford to sign one more player who is injury prone. He has been subjected to some pretty nasty challenges during the course of euro 2004 but is still going strong (touchwood)


A "fragile" Rosicky who misses 1/3rd of the season is still better than Camoranesi or Tacchinardi who don't miss a single game.

As long as Rosicky has a bit of luck on his side and manages to be fit when it really matters, it will be fine.

Rosicky and janks would be just be great. once that is done, all we need is emerson to join and of course maybe one class defender and just one more younger one such as bonera.

if we can swap di vaio for cannavaro, i'd be happy and of course if bonera joined that would be good.

bring in one of gilardino/zlatan/cavenaghi for di vaio's replacement and we suddenly have an awesome team.

i also dont quite impress by Rosicky...i was a few years ago... but now he seems so fragile...not someone i hope for if we want to take away some burden of Nedved...
I may agree with you and that's why I prefer Aimar

I'm not keen of him either, was very-very promising, but he is so injury prone, and seems to lost some spark as well. Maybe the god of football punished him that way for playing too many years in the german bundesliga.

Can't see Zambo being converted to a right back though.

diego is top of the pile for potential playmakers...rosiky would be good also, but shocking i have to agree with bark on one point, can he handle this league??

Deco...no thanks, he is good, but right now with all the hype he is over priced for what he can do.

Thats because Rosicky hasnt been playing as aplaymaker in the EURO, he's been playing much beeper, in an almost defensive midfielder role.

The czechs can play with 15 playmakers you know, and to make room for all his best players, the Coach had to put some of them on different positions. Thats why Rosicky is playing as a defensive midfielder with Plašil IIRC, while Neddy and Poborsky are in front.

That's my dream team too, I'm sure that Rambo could play as RB too... Even though I'd pick Cavenaghi instead of Gilardino or Zlatan because Cavenaghi is the only one of them who could sit on the bench too... And I don't want Bonera...

why not?! After all, Zambrotta is mr.versatile, (yes, I loaned that one from Graham, but it's still true...) surely it takes a bit of time, but still it shouldn't take too long...
