Because its not real, its a psy ops. Then they can do the whole “couldnt get it over the line” spew.

Its not real. Doesnt exist. And the fans will lap it up as per usual

This is a very weird thing to fall out over lads. And that's coming from me.

Focus your angst on the bald one.

Aye, it's a bit weird. I was just making an observation that we have a young back line with minimal experienced cover, and one of the best CB's of the last 20 years has gone to Berlin for next to nothing. Obviously you wouldn't pick Boncucci to play in a high line - even in his prime he wasn't exactly mobile, but I would have him sharing his experience in training and coming on at 1-0 up in the last 10 minutes if minute to close out a win if we're penned in.

One important consideration is that Bonucci has only ever had 1 red for Juve - which is testament to the fact that he very much knows how to defend without making rash tackles. He also knows how to defend a set piece like few others.

All of which is academic because he's gone elsewhere, and quite possibly because he wants to remain a starter.

He was deadwood at Juventus, he'd be deadwood for us.

They rated his workrate a little too highly and missed the fact he couldn't hit his boxers with a fart.

Wonder where his work rate has gone ?!

To be fair I remember seeing him play out wide a few times and I thought he was a lot better in that position. And against us a few times he looked really dangerous . Playing up front with his back to goal he’s an unmitigated disaster.
