Its not a p!rl0 excuse, its a reality. If we need to drop Bonucci in order for the team to play better I'm all for it, but if they insist on playing him he needs protection.

Protection from what? He's supposed to be the best defender on the team by far. He does not have any special needs.
Think you meant BarzagliProblem is that for Bonucci to excel, he needs to play with defenders who are much better than he is like Bonucci and Chiellini.

If that is the case he is not as good as the hype and a fraud. Time will tell.

Ah the P!rl0 argument.....Yeah all P!rl0 needed was a solid defense behind him, the midfield and attack to always run into space, and a personal bodyguard in midfield....and THEN HE'S OUT OF THIS FUCKING WORLD
If Bonucci actually needs all of this stuff to perform well for us (not saying that he does) then, he shouldn't even be a starting defender for us.
I say that he was a good defender even before he made it to JuBe and while in Juve, he excelled in Conte's 3-5-2....which is why Montella's straining to get the 3-5-2 right for now.
Bonucci needs to come into better form and mark better and balance would be restored to the force.

Agreed....but again, you'd expect such an "elite" defender to at least be able to win enough 1 on 1 battles to justify the elite tag. Thus far he's gotten beaten up fairly easily and alarmingly often for an "elite" defender. I think it all boild down to form atm....but there is the worrying alternative explanation that Juve's quality team hid his deficiencies.To be fair this is valid for almost any CM (not AM or wingers). If the CM has a reliable defence at his back, then he is free to distribute balls forward properly.
Otherwise he has more defending duties, this works in reverse well for the CB's as well. If the midfield keeps getting overrun on a constant basis, this will create way more opportunities for the CB'S to inevitably fuck up.
My 2 cent are: the first 11 is good enough in terms of individual quality, its the group play that's absolutely shite.
He actually wasn't that bad today if I'm being honest..
