Manuel Locatelli Thread

[truant]

True he is no legend but just a reminder of all the missteps these long years. May not even be Ambrosini level, who by the way would be a Serie A titan in this day an age, but would have given our team some identity moving forward.

Yes I look forward to our rising from the ashes again. Maybe minus the false prophets of a false dawn like Kessie and even Ale and Gigio if they leave. I still can't get over Ale linking up with Raiola. He's as good as gone, although I hope he proves me wrong.

I feel you...

And yeah ale taking on raiola was like fuck this team for me.

Just look at the interviews coming from the players.

No respect, nobody wants to bleed for the shirt.

But i guess that what you get when you stack your team full of kids with no direction.

I will give our all star management this summer to prove they are not all talk.

After that if we dont get 4th...i will just join the hate squad.

Btw where is loca? Is he any good?

I can't even fully hate on our guys, sure Gaz is fair game, but Maldini and Boban? I can just shake my head and cry.

Apparently Loca is doing quite ok in Sassuolo. Playing more regularly now Sensi left. He's still young. But yeah, with all the cancerish players on the team now who's to say he wouldn't join up with Raiola too if he had stayed.

 

[Goodfella]

After watching him against Lazio today, his marking is better, he is far more athletic, and his passing is solid. If I had to pick between the two of them, it would be Locatelli hands down.

Isn't he an AM for Sassuolo these days?

He was playing a bit further up, but didn't seem to be playing in a purely advanced role. Once he went off, Lucas Leiva was able to get a lot more time on the ball the momentum flipped over to Lazio

 

[Goodfella]

Doing well defensively as an advanced mid is not the same thing as doing well as the anchor.

There's nothing to be upset about here. Loca is the one who pushed for the transfer, and it was the right decision. He needed to play regularly, but he wasn't good enough to bench 2017-2018 Biglia or Baka.
Biglia and Baka were good. We didn't fail to make Top 4 because of them.

Biglia is no longer good enough and Baka is no longer here. But if Loca was here then it would be after a whole year on the bench.
Also, he's still not good enough as anchor, and we have better mezz'ala options than when he was here. He's barely even a starter for Sassuolo.

Being heavily linked to Inter and Juve.

Yet another talent we let walk away for next to nothing

Hi

If you follow ITALY VS POLOAND, Locatelli is doing a great matches, tackles, passing and drribling skills, he thrives in both defensive and attacking field.

 

[VooDooDoll]

poland looks terrible
even poli would look like world class there.

Yup. Now I see what he's becoming. I'd like to see him return, but having rejected the buy-back clause in 2018, my feeling is he's destined for Juve.

 

[fray]

He's becoming a really, really good player. What a stupendous assist to Berardi.

It's no fun when FNF isn't summoned to defend Poli in moments like this.

 

[Jasper]

Can someone locate the interview where he said he wanted a permanent deal? (Or was that someone else who clarified it?)

 

[Polotelli]

His price went up yesterday

I hope ladri can't afford him anymore now

 

[Sasha]

Sassuolo gonna make bank with him. Do we receive any percentage of the sale?

 

[Stitches]

Nnnope. #LeonardoUomoDiMerda

 

[Casualista]

Awww little Primavera snakeling.

Dream move for him. Dream start for the rest of us.

It will slowly hit him that he hasn't moved up in career.

He's sharing a team with banter era milan players like de snakelio and bonucci anyway.

 

[sheva]

lol it's weird and yet expected to see him with the Juve shirt

get fucked pleb

 

[Mario]

Meh he can enjoy

I can’t see juve going on a mad run like in the 2010s

Hopefully no silverware for a bit

I like him. His football brain is impressive.
