I don't get the people who said he had a great game. He was decent, nothing more. Vidal, Vučinić, Pirlo, Marchisio all performed better than him.

I just wish Pepe had some type of a finishing product. Fuck he works his ass off and does not stop and did his job well enough but you can see our wingers are all not doing what they should be doing. They all run their butts off to the 18 or by line but end up messing up the final pass. If it wasnt for our midfielders creating chances so well right now we'd have a hard time creating goals. IMO anyway.

Di Livio (quoted from goal.com):
"Pepe the 'new soldier'? I have to say I see much of myself in him: he can play in defence and attack, and always finds himself in the right position.

"I enjoy the comparison. I do not know if he [Pepe] is pleased!"
:D

Di Livio enjoys Pepe comparison

Juventus midfielder Simone Pepe is again being compared to Angelo Di Livio and the latter understands why.

Di Livio, an industrious right-winger, was a key figure in Marcello Lippi’s successful Old Lady side of the 1990s.

“I have to say that I do see myself sometimes when I watch Pepe play,” Di Livio, an Italian World Cup player, told Sky Italia.

“He knows how to attack and how to defend,” continued the former Fiorentina man. “He’s always in the right place at the right time.

“I’m quite pleased with the comparison between myself and Pepe, but I’m not sure if he is,” smiled Di Livio.

As well as the Di Livio-Pepe link, this present Juve side as a whole is being associated with that of Lippi’s 1994-95 outfit.

“I have to admit that Antonio Conte’s present side is reminding me of my Juve,” Angelo continued.

“There seems to be a different kind of motivation at the club this season and that has to be thanks to Conte.

“Juve had lost their hunger, their bite, but Antonio has worked hard on this aspect. This is what the club needed.”

Thumbs up to the legends of the real Juve doing whatever they can, even lying and denigrating themselves, to give the current crop a psychological boost.

Pepe the new Di Livio? LOL
Marchisio the new Conte and Tardelli? LOL

Any minute now we're going to get Ravanelli saying he sees himself in Iaquinta or some ridiculous fuckery.
