Rubbish, rubbish, complete rubbish, nonsense, perhaps.
Camoranesi is not the fastest player on our squad (Zambrotta or Appiah takes that title) however he's not the slowest. He's no Robben however he has good enough pace to be a Juve player. Camoranesi used to dribble the ball too much however this season he has improved greatly and he was always able to earn us freekicks with his dribbling ability. Camoranesi's certainly a better dribbler than Nedved in tight traffic and we need his skill to draw defenders towards him and open up space for others.
Camoranesi could possibly be our best passer on the team. His longballs have set up numerous goals this season and has made some stellar crosses into the opposition box. It's just that we have missed Trezeguet's heading ability to meet those crosses he sends. But there is no question over Camoranesi's passing ability, long range at least.
And to call possibly our best midfielder on the season "not good enough for Juve" is absurb if you ask me. Just imagine if Olivera was our only option...
