He's a good talent but there are plenty of players of his ilk in Bundesliga and EPL.

It's just that Serie A as a league and Juve as a club are so primitive that every time we see a big, athletic dude taking on defenders, we're amazed. This is normal stuff in other leagues with other teams.

Look at most of the top teams across Europe. They have atleast 2-3 players of this profile.

Instead we're going after washed up wingers and fullbacks because 'experience'. What a crap club we've become.

Don’t kill our only joy right now. It’s hope and we are looking for it anywhere now

Great cameo BTW

its normal that we get carried away when 19 yo comes in as sub in CL game and almost gives us 3 goals in like 20 minutes vs strong opposition. This was a great display by him and we should really work to keep him here.

We actually lack left winger so he could really be useful and with Chiesa back maybe we could play 343 too.

Defence whatever all sucks besides Bremer
Cuad/Mckennie Loca Paredes/Rabiot Kostic
Chiesa Vlaho/Milik Iling
 

Badass J Elkann

Seriously the club should learn that our kids are better than our starters, just imagine if we put more trust in fagioli, miretti, rovella and iling jr, how much we would save by not getting di maria, paredes and perhaps selling mckennie

He's not a better player than our starters, at least not currently.
But he wants to play. He has motivation and spirit while most of the first team is uninterested at best. And I'll take that any day of the week.

    Well he definitely isn't worse than current Cuadrado. He should be starting over him at least. Cuads has exceeded his shelf life at this club.

    if people question that, they need to rewatch the game yesterday and watch how we force our attack through Kostic and completely avoid cuads on the other side...we are completely predictable with Cuads playing...they know we won't attack through the right

    We had this guy the whole time? But what do these people paid millions of dollars sit and watch every day at training. Ok fine he might not be destined to be a top player or something but surely he can make the bench when you are playing Sandro and MDS.

    he was on the bench a few times already before he actually came in vs empoli

    we need a speed merchant like him, especially when all of our wingers are out and we planned to play 4-3-3

    this case just further confirms how terrible our coaching staff is this season
