Sebastian Giovinco (34 Viewers)

[vimo]

No , our goal is to establish a well competitive football team , not a wannabe Arsenal Kindergarten . You saw what happend to the Kindergartners this year .

that's it! great post. People need to understand that a 20 yr-old so-called "talent" is worth NOTHING. I mean, count the players who are under 21 or so and who play in a cl-final. Those are exceptions. That's exactly what i'm trying to say about all 'our guys' around in italy. I like the idea of lanzafame being the new ___ (insert super star name of choice) but fact is that he simply is not (yet). Look at it that way; if giovinco was 29, playing for empoli, with the exact same performance this year. I bet half of the people here could enumerate dozens of 'better' alternatives. You're right of course that he can grow and after all, i'm a great admirer of giovinco, don't get me wrong... but we can't buy a dozen 20yrs-old in this transfer-window, when we got a starting-IX to reinforce. Of course, giovinco is different, i just wanted to give you guys an example. I'm all for bringing back gio, but the people who want all of our guys back just don't know what they are talking about.

We're going to play with 2 players less next season?

Actually, we could take A LOT of advice from Arsenal as to how to run a damn football club.

An advice but not a big one for sure. Arsenal, Wenger specifically, know how to nurture a youngster, but on the expense of experience in my opinion. A balance between both is required.

Milan, on the other hand, is the opposite of Arsenal. Both teams have failed this season.

The two factors are essential; Experience and youngsters.

Exactly.

The right balance between youth and experience is the key to success in any football club . Man U have done exactly that , look at their results .


If there was a club we could learn anything from , it would be Man U ( as much as I hate them ) not Arsenal .

Even Wenger himself has stated that he will abandon his policy of having only young talent in his team .

Milan have all ready started with signing the likes of Pato etc...

Liverpool, Chelsea and Bayern Munich are good examples as well.

Experience: Del Piero, Buffon, Camo, Nedved, Zanetti

Youngsters: Giovinco, Marchisio, De Ceglie, Sissoko, maybe even Chiellini (plus potentially Palladino and Nocerino, if we don't sell them)

So what's everyone problem with our youngsters?

I don't have any problem at all. As I always say; one of the advantages of the disastrous Calciopoli was us selling some aging players and giving us the chance and space to promote some youngsters who would never play in the 1st team if the Calciopoli didn't happen.

I'd like us to keep as much Bianconeri youngsters as we can; Nocerino, Palladino, De Ceglie and Giovinco.

Also there is a kid in our youth team called Carlo Vecchione. I hope we'll promote him soon. He does everything on pitch a matured sane footballer can do.

as opposed to insane footballers?

Yes I forgot, football is insane, bro. :rulz: :toast:

I dont agree.. With his performances this year, If he were 29 and Empoli had a bit more luck added that Cagni started Seba every game, i seriously think Donadoni would be calling him up & he'd fringe player as his performances has been mesmorising, better than say a Marchionni ever displayed at Parma or Semioli for Fiorentina.. Ur first argument applies to Lanzafame, Criscito, Marchisio, De Ceglie but i think Seba is exempt from that.. I'm not saying seba is the proven article as yet but forget the fact he only 20 years old, he is still turning in great performances

 

[cublinks]

does seba often get injuries??
considering his style of play, he sure is a target for brutal defenders....

 

[CORVETTE]

Giovinco this season got an injury just once for one week .

 

[Gazzo]

Giovinco this season got an injury just once for one week .

Which is suprising given his tiny frame.. People often think he's injured when it's just that prick Cagni benching him

 

[Dominic]

Marchisio, worryingly, is injured quite regularly on the other hand.

 

[Elvin]

Who cares he's gonna be a sub anyway, kind of like Ambrosini has been for Milan and Tacchi for us throughout the years, at least it seems like it.

Momo - Flamini baby.

 

[Dominic]

You're fickle, aren't you? Until only very recently you were sporting "Giovinco- Marchisio- De Ceglie" in elephant letters in your signature.

 

[Alen]

Marchisio, worryingly, is injured quite regularly on the other hand.

Yes, i noticed this.
I regularly check Gazzetta's page for the line ups and i lost count how many times i've seen the name Marchisio among the Indisponibili.
And i'm not talking about 1 injury that kept him out for a long time. He plays 2 matches and he's out for the next 2, then he plays 3 and he's out for the next 2 and it goes on and on during the entire season.

Such a shame i wasn't checking to see what were the reasons for this. Was it one chronical not healed injury or is he simply injury prone !?!

 

[Gazzo]

Marchisio, worryingly, is injured quite regularly on the other hand.

He sure has been but i wouldnt class him as injury prone, it's his first year in the serie A spotlight, thankfully when he has played IMO after actually watching him play (more than some of u who i know havent even seen 1 empoli game this season) i can say that he has impressed
