Giovinco isnt good enough to start. Conte knows that.
However, he also sees how giovinco can change games when his mind is right, when comming on against tired defenders.

We got hardworking forwards, so we can create this situation.

Conte must keep the neverstarting Giovinco happy offcourse, so he says these things.



A giovinco in the right mindset comming in at '65 - '70 can be so lethal

The issue is not that he cant defend, altho that is right, the issue is that giovinco is far to easely shut down by lesser talented defenders in a static defence.
If they are tired and holes are created, then he can unleash his potential

Is Osvaldo good enough to start? And if no, does Conte know that?

Osvaldo can do more when starting compares to.giovinco.

That doesnt take away that against a tired defence, giovinco with the right mindset is a lethal weapon.

However, how many games per year turn out like that ?

In italy teams go behind against.juve and keep playing the counter.

Conte does need to give Giovinco more chances before he says how not enough people rate him.
This is my point. Conte needs to sort his shid before blaming giovinco for not being good enought. Both are equally culprits on this. If I were giovinco I would pull his wig for that comment

*Never plays Giovinco*

Dat dere Conte

It's obvious that Giovinco sucks in a 352 as a CF. But he obviously has some quality playing in a wide position

Conte can't ever moan about not having the players to swich formations as a plan B because he's shown that he would rather do a double wingback swap than take a defender off for a wide forward/winger

Gotta say he's been in good form lately but still not convinced he is Juve standard, definitely has to be sold in the summer.

The thing that annoys me most about Giovinco is that Messi used to be lightweight but he bulked up a few seasons ago and is actually pretty strong on the ball now, obviously I'm not expecting him to be near his standard but he could go to the gym and work on it which you would have thought he would have done after last season but he hasn't now which tells me one of two things:

1. He's either too lazy to do it. 2. He's too dumb to realise that he could actually make a difference to his play by putting that work in.

His problem is not his weight. If Conte was intelligen enought , he would use his weight as a strenght instead of trying to fail time after time sending giovinco to crash into a wall of defenders with his back to goal.

Dont get me wrong... we all know gio is no del piero.. but at this stages its clear that he was never meant to be. I dont know if someday he will be juve material, but until Conte tries all the possibilities with him, we will never be 100% sure if he didnt worked because he was just not good enought.... or if he was not used properly.

Come on, Conte is stubborn enought to give a chance to skillless pricks like Isla and Bonucci time after time... but he refuses to try giovinco in other positions for some reason.....oh wait...maybe because that would mean changin formation for something else that isnt 352.

Silly me.
