Never in a million years he is crucial to our team his work rate is world class and his passion and loyalty is sometimg we cannot replace. We must refuse any offers no matter what the price.

so is it settled now? Marchisio is your 4th best midfielder? the googles have been removed? :smh:

But...but...he is better than Fabregas!!!!111

Agree with all the quotes you're laughing at. He's just been in poor form lately, doesn't help when he's coming off injuries

Hes in poor form in an attacking sense, but if you dont just watch the ball youd realize that hes still alot more valuable off the ball than Pogba. Hes slowly been getting better though, and if he gets his form back then id say hes better than Pogba for sure. Right now theyre on the same level.

Un prophète

I always thought Marchisio would end up one of the worlds best midfielders, can't believe he's already 32, he won't be remembered 15 years from now in the footballing world outside of Juve fans IMO.

Got ruined by injuries. He was our most important player before the ACL tear.

Its fair to say that.

Maybe if he dabbed or had fancy hair, maybe he'd be more recognized down the lane.

Imagine bumping this thread after sustaining an injury which basically saw him miss two seasons

Ignoring the fact that this thread was made in the MVPP era and forgetting that when Vidal and Pirlo left, Marchisio had his best ever season in 2015/16 before suffering the previously mentioned injury

Making a claim that’s wrong and waiting until it’s right isn’t the same as having a compelling point in the moment

Just realized that this thread is almost 5 years old FFS

I think the Sevilla game has destroyed Frenzy more than we actually thought. Gaining pleasure by bumping half a decade old threads and calling himself the prophet ? Unreal stuff.

You've become a shell of your former self, fella.

What Firenze say is true but it seems like the word prophète is being misunderstood here.

Marchisio is a Juve legend for sure, our 1st best midfielder since many years but his career was ruined by injuries. Who could have predicted ?

Pjanic is a great player but he cannot dominate the midfield all by himself. Marchisio can. He is a boss. Sadly i doubt that he's even fit for 20% of our games Can't rely on him anymore.

@Warrior

is he still a Juve legend? maybe too early to ask in the wake of him jumping ship, but I don't think so

like me saying Owen Hargreaves is a United legend

even if there are a handful of games difference played for the teams

anyway I wonder why he left - was he predicted to have an injury ridden season again? wages too high and needed them gone?

your midfield is in dire condition so I can't imagine you would have let him go without some major issue

He didn't jump ship, the club phased him out. Marchisio is absolutely a Juve legend, a huge one. 25 years with the club, his entire life being a model professional for us and before his injury our most important player.

Ronaldo eating up the wage bill

Juve

Hope we get Bayern in the R16 so we can keep you irrelevant for another season.

Is he like the Italian Granero?

did ya boy dirty ffs

One of the most unanimously loved players at Juventus in the modern era. A Torino native, youth product, who began as a left winger/wide midfielder before dropping into the midfield and forming one of the best midfield trios we've played in Marchisio-Pirlo-Vidal (MVP). He, rightfully, was the longest serving name of the three. We really saw something special in 2015-16 when he changed his role and was our regista with Pogba and Khedira on either side of him in the midfield, it was in this season that he arguably played his best but also this season when he suffered his unfortunate ACL injury. From this moment, we never really had our Claudio back, he's struggled with fitness and struggled even more for minutes as Allegri has elected to go with other names in the midfield.

I think he was expecting another season of similar treatment as we did nothing that would suggest a larger role for Marchisio at this point in his career.

Grazie Claudio, sempre

Great player, always liked him.

It's like asking is Chiellini a Jjuve legend.

Disgraceful exit for a club legend

Juve

Numpty

His wages were 3.5M net per year. Hardly a burden on our books.

Infact Pjanic, Rugani, Sandro and Benatia are all signing new contracts with payrises.

I don't even know what to think about any living human that would connect a Marchisio exit to Ronaldo's wages lmao

This was coming from when his wife was going on twitter rampages months ago when Marchisio was continuously not playing

The only thing unclear is if Marchisio asked to leave, sensing another season of limited chances or if the club asked him to leave

Either way, it's not the ending any Juve fan wanted
