Federico Chiesa

This is a reliable "rumor" or your wishthinking?

Wishful thinking

That Euros in 2021 was decent but nothing amazing.

2 goals and 0 assists in 7 games and he was not one of the top dribblers/creative players there or even close.

 

[vuji_31]

Doku was amazing that year.

To bad we have reatrds that could not see young Doku was dribbling 2 or 3 opponents with ease.

I am willing to risk my life, that this forum would be much better job at picking and getting players then the retards in the board.

Saying he's worse than Torres is harsh.

Even if you take away his goals, his footballing abilities are far superior to Torres.

Torres on the ball looks like a donkey. Chiesa is at least somewhat composed. He will probably be similar to Raphinha level but likely less effective from a goal/assist standpoint.

Welcome to Barcelona and good luck on your inevitable loan move to Fiorentina in 25/26.

The only difference is that you watch Ferran every game and watch just the highlights of Chiesa and even here he's nothing special. It will be interesting to read this thread in January if he really comes.

How many injury-prone players do you want 😭

 

[DonAK]

I think people associate him too much with this one magical Euro campaign… he’s a bum.

He is a better player than Ferran.

Which doesn’t really mean much as Ferran is dogshit.

Lmao.

Well look at that.

Maybe he is worse than Ferran @mc_lovin

I've watched him more than enough to have a say - Chiesa is a much better player with lots more talent. He's better in tight spaces, he has a higher footballing IQ, better crosses, better dribbling etc.

It’s one thing to play for Barca who dominate in 95% of games and another to play for Juve’s defensive terrorist Allegri setup with 5 atb and no wingers. It’s a no brainer that Chiesa’s stats would improve if he plays for an attacking club.

 

[JamDav1982]

How does that account for him missing more big chances?

Can argue it both ways. Some players prefer more space in behind a defence and to get more chances 1v1 v the full back in a team that doesnt dominate the ball.

 

[DonAK]

If Juventus won't sell for less than 10m they should walk away. No point spending a lot of money on a guy who need his career revived and has an injury history that's scary.

Chiesa doesn't exactly solve their issues with lack of pace up front.
