He doesn't have to be negative Nancy. Just a solid rotation, back up mid with experience. Take him any day over Khedira.
For anyone who doesnt have the game... here is a clip of Buffons save on a pk after a handball. http://i.4cdn.org/sp/1517343779255.webm Here is a clip of Gonzalos goal... i think it was Sami on the assist. http://i.4cdn.org/sp/1517342230409.webm Clips wont work on phones... well it may on android.
It was the right call because even tho it was unintentional, that ball was bouncing to a atalanta player for a potential 50/50 ball. Getting calls against Juve can be good thing anyways because it adds more pressure and adversity for the team to over come, There are a solid 5 teams in the CL that are very much for real this year. And Juve needs to be ready for that. Nice to see Buffon read that shot, they need to let him come back for one more season because he has not shown hardly any regression. And it was nice to see Gonzalos first touch be on point when he recieved that pass on his goal, pretty much every step with the ball maintained close distance to him and a decisive purposed cut that resulted in the goal.
Use to be that Buffon could not save a penalty to save his life. He has gotten better in the later stage of his career with penalties.

So let me get this straight, two losers who some here have advocated getting rid from the team paired up today to give us our winning goal. Complimenti to the naysayers once again.
