yeah that is silly. He would be one of the most talented and goal-getting scorers in the Euro's if not the most.
We all expected Lamela, Bojan and Osvaldo (not much from Osvaldo from my side) to be our attacking force at the beginning of the season. Few or maybe none expected Borini to be performing like this! Amazing player with bright future.
Cheers once again to Borini for proving to be the only real positive thing to come out of this season thus far.
I expected him to have some big games, but nothing like the form we are seeing from him. He is still only 20, pretty incredible. just a baybe.
alright the both of them! i think the youngster is making the osvaldo purchase look ever worse in my opinion he is so much more noble then osvaldo and he is showing what L.E system can really do.
I completely agree, for me Borini is by miles the best purchase of our transfer market. The only one that completely saves himself in a disastrous season. Osvaldo has done okay, but I can't stand his attitude. While I see it impossible to upgrade that area this summer. I think in the long run we could do better there. Although it will never happen, I also this Prandelli should play like this come Euro2012: Giovinco - Balotelli - Borini
Giovinco would work well at Roma should ask parma about him im sure he would rather go to you guys then to juve.
IMO, he's very similar to Bojan(without the mental problems), so I don't think we would gain that much for a hefty price I believe we'd have to pay.
yes but bojon is more expensive and should get sent back to Barca to be honest if they really thought he'd be something they wouldn't of sent him off...
He has to potential to be great, but his fragile mind is destroying him. If he could mimic what Borini does, he could surpass him easily because he has more talent.
Even if Bojan were to leave I see little room for Giovinco at Roma. I also don't think he is as good as people make him out to be. He's too small, and he's no Messi. However for the Euros with the absence of Cassano and Rossi I think him and Balotelli are our best bet.
i dont see it he doesn't have the mentality and mentality is very hard thing to change. also the ammount of money that you guys would have to pay for him wont even be worth it you guys have Lamela who i can see becoming a better player for Roma than Bojan if Bojan didnt come from Barca nobody would of ever of heard of him...
Giovinco would be amazing in Rome. He is not similar to Bojan at all, and I have no clue where anyone gets off saying that he has a weak psyche or anything of the sort. If you don't agree that he is what people make him out to be, then you have to ask the question: "What do people make him out to be?" Is he an extremely talented fantista (spelling?) second point player that is extremely fast, has great passing, and is very composed in front of the net? Then yes, yes he is. I pay particular attention to his games, because I am a big fan of him and have been since when he played at Empoli.
For starters, I never said Giovinco is weak mentally, I was talking about Bojan. And I said they are similar because they are both small and explosive players who are best on the second striker or the left side. Also, both of their goal scoring records are not all that impressive so far.
I had just quoted your page but I was referring to another post. Bojan is not a playmaker, and Gio is. Gio has consistently put big teams down or at least scored against them and has a further record of assists. 9 goals and 5 assists in 23 games is not bad for playing on a not-so-great team. Give the boy the backing and he will flourish, he just got a good rating on goal.com (take it for what its worth) against USA, highest only behind Borini.
Only at this blog I hear things so stupid. He was cap on the spanish national team when he was 18. They wanted him to play for the 2008 spanish euro team. It's stupid for people to say he wouldn't be known if he didn't play for barcelona. Borini played for Chelsea. What is Chelsea a team in the United States or something?Barcelona didn't get rid of Bojan he asked to go on loan to follow LE. I want to see Borini break into a squad that has: Villa, messi, pedro, Fabregas, Alexis Sanchez. Borini couldn't get off the bench at chelsea.
