Too early to say anything. He could become another O'Neill, Baiocco or Camo... I hope he wont tho.
IMO he looks better than those, except for Camo. Man, I had such big hopes about that guy a while ago.. and I actually I still have if he would just be a little consistent.

Juventus attacker Ruben Olivera has thanked coach Fabio Capello for handing him a lifeline in Turin.

The Uruguayan struggled to establish himself under former boss Marcello Lippi and spent the second half of last season on loan at Atletico Madrid.

But, following Capello's appointment as coach, Olivera has been given the chance to stake a claim for a prominent role in the side.

He featured strongly in pre-season and also in the UEFA Champions League qualifier against Swedish side Djurgardens.

Capello has deployed Olivera on the left wing and he admits he is grateful to have the opportunity at Stadio Delle Alpi.

"I've the coach's and my team-mates' faith and this helps me to give more day by day," Olivera told Corriere dello Sport.

"My chance has arrived and I want to take advantage of it.

"With Lippi, I had problems finding a place so last year in Madrid, it was a season lost.

"With Capello, I talk a lot and he only asks me to have good training sessions and to follow his suggestions.

"I've never played on the left wing . Undoubtedly, it's more difficult but I thought I would have many problems, instead match-by-match I found faith."
Isn't Olivera playing on the right every match so far :rolleyes:.

yeah, im thinking it was all in italian and whoever has translated it has got mixed up with left and right.

he has played on the right in most games but can easily be switched to the left if needed. thats the beauty of having olivera and nedved on the wings, both can swap if need be.

Olivera seem to replace Camonaresi ~~
Fantastic, maybe it'll be a kick up the ass for Camo and he'll start playing better; that way we have two good players battling it out for a role on the right flank

olivera is a playmaker by trade. but i think starting him off on the right is good to ease him into serie A a little more.

as for Camoranesi...he is in real trouble. the days of playing 1 in 5 decent games and still starting week in week out have gone.
