[Fillipo Simone]

So, not a bad match allover, but for me there are two clear groups of players who played well and those who haven't.

Our fullbacks were top on today. Especially De Sciglio made a few very good passes and runs. Abate - needless to say - was good as well but had minor defensive problems. Alex and Bonaventura did also very well, Menez was okay. It's a bit hard to tell who's MoM because IMO no one was that outstanding. So my vote goes to MDS.

The bad group - starts with Muntari, who would be flop if he hadn't score that great goal that saved him. But my pick will be Rami; too many individual mistakes - unbelievable errors in passing and positioning.

Torres could have done also much more. Honda was okay, but his finishing leaves much to be desired. Nevermind the good free-kick, but he wasted 2 good chances with a bad miss. Nevertheless, a good game.

I remember that Zaccheroni interview. He did say though that Honda gives his best in the center. The thing is that I don't expect him to change drastically if played there. I actually said that in another thread. Honda has shown all the quality he has, and regardless of where he plays he won't become a better player. But at least his impact will be different. Pippo, just like Seedorf, plays him too far wide, and that affects his contribution to our game. He's not fast, he's not physically strong, he can't beat his opponent or make long runs. You see him many times isolated on the right, or in situations where he can't do more than the simple pass due to his incapacity to utilize the spaces as a natural winger would. So, either play him centrally or don't play him at all.
