Indeed I agree with the article as Tiago was brought to Juventus for his technical abilities, and even without as much playing time as the other player Tiago yet managed to get quite a lot of assists whilst playing a lot less time. He did reasonably well at Chelsea which goes back to Jose Mourinho's comments over wanting to keep Tiago at Stamford Bridge even though he was eventually sold to Lyon, after Chelsea had brought in Michael Essien. At Lyon, Tiago was starting regularly and settled into the area well, and after a very consistant season Alessio Secco picked Tiago to add flair to the newly promoted Bianconeri. A deal for €13m was agreed and Juve fans were excited by the prospet of Tiago in the middle of the park. However, a year on most of the supporters would have like Tiago to be sold on and replaced by Xabi Alonso, BUT, Secco and Ranieri decide to keep Tiago and add another defensive midfielder for Ranieri's new system as Giovanni explained. With Juve's mercato suposedly over many Juventus fans will be hoping that the second season syndrome lightning strikes Tiago...
