Giovinco

He thinks he's too good to track back or go for simple passes

instead he will run around doing tricks and failing

he needs one lucky break and the resulting confidence

Lucky break: goal in late sub appearance against Bayern in a 1-1 draw

what I would do for that to happen :'(

I mean dude, do you think its wise that after Del Piero left, he IMMEDIATELY starts celebrating like him with his tongue? talk about original brother.


Dude needs to be Giovinco and be more of a team player.

I mean he wants to be Del Piero in the sense of importance, emblem of the club, the lost prodigy who returns to juventus to be Del Piero's heir in greatness. Of course they play differently in style of play and capabilities, but i meant it in a more psychological way. Do you understand?

This is the problem: people compare him to Del P and think he is trying to be Del P. There is nothing wrong with striving to be like a great player. People are too hard on Giovinco. What you see is what you get with him. Maybe he needs to move on to another club, but he shouldn't be criticized for wanting to be like Del P or not playing up to Del P's standards. It's unrealistic to set such standards on any Juventus player. People like to turn Giovinco into a villain, which he certainly is not.
