a fucking joke that Ekdal isnt in that list,
What's the big deal?

It's not like he'd get in the team ahead of any of Poulsen, Zanetti, Sissoko, Marchisio and Ranieri would move Camo into the centre before using Ekdal.

Do you really think Ekdal is ready to play against Real Madrid in the CL?

exactly, there's a hierarchy at the club which cannot and should not be ignored...Marchisio et al. deserve their chance...Albin isn't going anywhere anytime soon

As good as Ekdal has shown to be, let's not forget that he was playing with Brommapojkarna just a few months ago. He has a made an amazing leap as is.

After 1 season, there is probably less pressure on Tiago and his on-field performance is less scrutinized as compared to when he was Juve's biggest signing last season.

Hopefully this can help him but there's Poulsen, Sissoko, Zanetti & Marchsio in front of him. His chances may be very limited ...

Ranieri said:
Tiago Mendes made a rare appearance in the second half and Ranieri has not given up on the midfielder who refused moves to Everton, Monaco and Tottenham.

“Tiago has great technique and has shown himself to be open to helping out the team. Who knows, maybe this year without pressure he will be able to prove his quality.”
Whoa, you took the words out Ranieri's mouth.
