Here's what I think about the players tonight.
Manninger : He was good, can be a very good deputy for Gigi.
Molinaro : When given the ball on the attack, he seems nervous and lacks ideas. He needs somone to basically hold his hand and tell him exactly what do to. It's a mystery how this guy is playing for Juve.
Chiellini : As always, a monster at the back. A true leader, he had a few lapses in the game but always made up for them.
Mellberg : He made one error and it was in the first half when he lost control of Chiellini's pass, other than that, he was extremely solid at the back.
Grygera : He was good defensively, and all our offenses were in engaged on the right, he knows how to get the ball forward and start an attack. Something Molinaro is not capable of doing.
Poulsen : Squandering possesion and misplacing passes would pretty much summarize evening. He needs a rest.
Momo : A BEAST. Those tackles were nothing short of phenomenal, he tore Cassano to pieces and always got the ball cleanly, not only that, but had some nicemoves on the attack. In fact, I would say he was our most dangerous midfielder going forward. Although I admit that's not saying much given what the rest did today.
Nedved : He is the heart of Juve. He runs till the final whistle and somehow magically stores energy. He saved us from a goal in the dying minutes by blocking a well-placed shot.
Camo- : He was good in the first half but I did not like him in the second. He looked lazy, tired, and uninspired. He gave possession way too easilly and wasn't the Camo we are all used to. Perhaps Ranieri should have given him a break for this one.
Del piero : He was one of the better players today. He was commited and determined to make a difference. Unfortunately, he had to drop back too much in order to penetrate the 11 man Samp defense, he should have stayed on. He's probably the only player we have, along with Nedved that can create something out of nothing and win the game for us.
Amauri : He wasn't given any chances, but was able to create a little by himself. With a little support, this guy could be a monstrous threat to any defense.
Ranieri : I'm not going to typically bash him like 99 percent of the Juventus population, but really, why doesn't he put Giovinco on when it's painfully obvious that he is the only player capable of changing the course of the game. Instead, putting on IQ who couldn't do anything by himself. I also am not entirely convinced Ranieri understands the concept of substitutions, you get three, USE THEM!
General note:
It's very clear that we need Giovinco in the squad, he is our best scource o creativity and attacking power, especially when Camo is having an off-day. For some reason he didn't play today. When playing against a 5 man midfield, you obviously have to change your tactics. Ranieri should have played with three men forward, if they couldn't directly get the ball through the midfield, they could just dish it out to the strikers upfront. A 4-3-3 is the best way of facing a 3-5-2 in my opinion as it exploits the gaps in defense.
