In the biggest matches I’m not always dependent on him, but in the “easier” fixtures, the ones that quietly win you the league, he’s usually the one who secures those vital points.

Chivu has to take responsibility for starting him on artificial turf just days after he played 90 intense minutes against Juve. That decision was risky.

Still, I’m not panicking. With Pio and Bonny available, and if Thuram steps up, we can manage this period.

  1. Not like he’d score in the derby anyway. I don’t mean that in any offense, but truly he hasn’t scored on Napoli, Juve or Milan this season.

  2. Will be missed against Lecce, Bodo, Genoa and Como. Not so much against Milan. Definitely missed against Atalanta if he isn’t back by then.

  3. Well this is all on chuvu, not he is the time to show what he can do as a coach because until now you can argue he just following Inzaghi’s path, with little changes.

    The derby and the ucl game are the big questions that will answer if chivu the new sheriff, or he just has a good team who almost doesn’t need a coach (similar to real with arbeloa).
