The combo of Marchisio-Sissoko in the middle is just terrible. It's not been looking good at any point with these two on the field at the same time. I know you are "the" Marchisio fanboy right, Ahmed? :tongue:
Sorry mate but it has to be said...

I would actually opt to at least give Marco - Sissoko - Camo - Nedved/Giovinco a shot.

definitely a fan, certainly not a fanboy...Claudio can definitely play the same role Tiago had in the recent weeks, he is just a bit inexpreienced and rough around the edges...the biggest problem is that Juve are not willing to play passing football through the middle of the park...our attacks are always long passes to Ale or Amauri, or Nedved and Molinaro bringing it down the left flank

Marchisio can play upfield on occasion. But IMO, his best MF strength is on defense. And we know where fielding 2 DMs has gotten this club... :frown:

There is no place for Tiago in the starting 11 with C. Zanetti around.
C. Zanetti >>> Tiago

That doesn't mean Tiago won't be useful for us though...

well he's finally back and i honestly tink if continues to improve he cud take the starting spot next to momo. yes zaneti is good & is influence is heavily felt, but i tink tiago wud add a bit more offensively to the team than zanetti.

Nah, not really.

Zanetti is the better passes offensively, Tiago is more about keeping the flow of and spreading it around to keep the beat so to speak. But decesive opening passes (like the one against Monaco to Iaquinta), I go with Zanetti. Not to mention he is in general better.

100%.

When it comes to passing, Zanetti is right there behind Ale.
