I know, two games played is also a non-indicator . I have a friend who watched last year Avellino, and he told me that Rodrigo Ely was head and shoulders above Vergara as a defender. Of course the jump from Serie B to Serie A is a very big one.
I mean, people are praising Koulibaly right now but they forget how he was playing last year. Barzagli is one of the most complete defenders currently and yet he was sold for pocket change to Juventus. It's too early to throw Ely out as trash. The fact that Miha started him not once but twice tells me that he sees something in this guy. As long as Miha trusts in him, I do as well.
Mihajlovic might not be the best coach or the best motivator, but he knows defensive coaching. This is the same guy that got Shkodran Mustafi to the World cup winning team and Romagnoli to where he is today.
Anyways, we kinda hijacked the Calabria thread
Good post
