When it came to recovering balls or hustling opponents , yes but his technique lets him down way too much to become a regular Juve starter. It's a huge drop in standard from the likes of Vidal and Pogba as far as B2B midfielders go.
But, he would definitely be a useful option when we want to pack bodies in midfield and soak up the pressure, just not when controlling a game which we do most of the times in the league.
Rincon is definitely a more ideal option than him imo.
