Yes, he was.
He just cannot function in a 4-4-2, so there is no point in keeping him.

Well I dont think any club will want to make a bid for him, a loan is out of the question. I believe he will remain here.
Now we all know what his capable of but how do you bring the best out of a player who seems so demoralised?
I saw Ranieri tonight giving him some advice but it almost seemed that Tiago was just nodding his head away without really paying attention.
Despite this I still think its a do or die and I think its still worth giving him a chance before we get rid of him. I doubt we will be playing a 442 throughout the season, despite it looking likely. I think Ranieri still believes in him and thats sometimes useful for a player to know.. but really Tiago needs to shake up or puts some make up and leave.

I never seen Almiron got his chance as much as Tiago last year..
So i see that why Ranieri didn't give Almiron to play together in pre season
Almiron seems doing not bad in pre season last season when we beat Roma 5-2 (He makes assist) and in the opening season when we beat Livorno 5-1 and Parma (Coppa) 3-1
So till now, i don't understand why we don't try him to play again
Almiron has experience play in Italy
Why gave only Tiago a chance to play although he doesn't fit with Italian league style of play

Tiago vacates Turin home Thursday 31 July, 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus midfield outcast Tiago Mendes could be set for an immediate exit after he moved out of his house in Turin.
The Portuguese international suffered a miserable first season in Serie A despite arriving from Lyon with high hopes.
And he hasn’t made the grade in pre-season, missing a penalty in the Trofeo TIM against Milan.
Coach Claudio Ranieri has hinted that Tiago could be on his way and admits that he has been a flop.
“All over Europe he is considered to be a great player,” the Juve boss said. “But calcio throws up some strange mysteries.
“There are flops in Italian football and sometimes it seems to make no sense. But there are lots of fans who want me to continue with Tiago.”
Tiago has reportedly cancelled the lease on his house in Turin and is in a hotel while his family have returned to Portugal.
The 27-year-old’s next destination is still unclear but he has been linked to Benfica in recent weeks.
