His gangsta rapper name would be MC Counter Killah.


Can't wait for when we have a proper LCM.

Forget about the counters... him and Biglia must take much bigger responsibility when we're pinned down like this and our flanks are not working.

I wonder how this game would have looked with Kalinic at CF.

nice improvement...really solid game.

I think Rino has really helped him turn his shitty games into shitty halves.

Had the most in his tank among all our attack-minded players. But so many wrong choices in the first half. Recovered well in the latter stages. Overall so-so.

remember when newbs(goodfella, I see you) said he couldnt play midfielder, cause he to weak defensively.

he s doing a fine job in the right circumstances.

Sell. We dont need an overrated italian midfielder.

We need a world class.

Upgrading his position is more pressing than even the lw

Cant remember last time a player made a wrong decision every time he touched the ball. What a trash perfomance that was.

Over the season EVERYONE has bad games...even Messi and CR7.

I think he's more of an asset than a liability

I am not saying he needs to be sold.

I agree with your assessment of "more of an asset than a liability" if he is a spark off the bench. I won't lie, he's improved defensively and has done well in terms of winning the ball back lately.

However, seeing him start week in week out and kill our attacks over and over with his unnecessary dribbling and poor decision making has taken a toll. I don't think we can become a serious team to compete even in EL with someone like Bonaventura as our starter.

Furthermore, it isn't like Bonaventura is lighting it up anywhere near the level of Messi / CR7 so I don't see what the comparison is all about. Even when he isn't playing poorly as he did yesterday, the same flaws are there. It's just that against small sides his occasional spark is enough to create / make a late run for a goal whereas against any decent sides the amount of chances he wastes is unacceptable.

- Takes way too long to make a decision.
- Has decent technique but never could really make a play with all his dribbling.
- Horrible decision making.

Also, shoots way too much like Hakan.

I agree with you that he should be a super sub and if we want to increase our level of play; he should be replaced in the starting lineup.

that's not the point though.

He's not a dependable player. Just like Hakan. Only dependable players we have are Romagnoli, Bonucci and Donnarumma.

The rest of the players are like a mixed bag every week. You don't know what you're gonna get or which version of the player is gonna show up until they step onto the pitch. We were well on our way to consistency until Thursday. Thursday was a match day. What, because it's a loss we should exclude it from empirical evidence?

Why? On Thursday we saw 11 players show up. But I didn't see AC Milan. Did you?

Let's see who shows up against Genoa.

He is ok. Good bench option in truth. Need a wc player in his position.
