Well, at least he got to warm up the whole game, thats another way to look at it.

Sebastian Giovinco
2010 - 30 seconds of playing time.

He should've come on instead of Trez. We had no creative or even capable of giving a normal pass midfielders on the pitch, so we needed his pace instead of Trez' poaching abilities.

I can't help but think about that time when Trez got the ball in the middle of the park and had no defenders infront of him. He was easily caught because the lack of pace, whereas Gio would've been able to run straight to goal.

Dude, we're beyond all of this right now.

There is something seriously, seriously wrong that we have no idea about. This isn't right, he's not even benched. Benched players are players like Brazzo or Zebina, but they get to play sometimes from start or as subs. Giovinco is COMPLETELY forgotten.

And I know I sound like Giovinco's bitch right now but this whole situation makes me angry and a bit sad.

What a shame..

It's not about sounding like Giovinco's bitch, it's about having a fast creative player on the bench who could really help us out up front.

Especially with that lame formation we ended up playing to defend the 1-2 ( Over 20 minutes before the end of the game would you believe.. ) we should've had someone with pace up front.

Nope, but how do you justify to include Giovinco into the lineup when were winning?
Winning? Yeah, sure, why not. We're like Inter or Barcelona, a wonderful winning team.

How do I justify including Giovinco in the lineup? We're 6th in the league and we're playing in the Europa League.

But tbh, I don't even expect him to play from start at this point. I'm just wondering why one of the world most creative talents is totally forgotten in a team full of hard working, uncreative players?

How do you expect people to take you seriously when you say such a thing?

Why not? You don't think he's one of the most creative young players out there?

He's always been ranked as one of the most creative young talents. He was excellent in the U 21 Championship in Sweden(behind 3 out of Italy's 4 goals) and was voted as one of the best players. The 10 assists he created last season in the short amount of minutes he got was a great achievement too.

Look, I don't want to go in to deep about how good he really is. But he surely deserves more than 30 seconds.

Let's not start about whether he's good or not. Thing is he was our only good option to play upfront after we decided to play 4-4-2 with 8 defensive players, simply because of his pace.

When you have the likes of Messi, Aguero, Fabregas to name three all young than Giovinco how does one compare him up there with the best in Europe?

He is a flair player and I do want him to see playing time but I see him more as a 30 minute man as opposed to a 90 minute.
