He's fast and he can pass which basically means he suits that position more than anyone we have bar Alvarez who still hasn't delivered. I don't think many people are claiming that his natural position is AM

Strama said that he'll never play him behind the striker(s). So expect him to play either in front of the defense (with the liberty to move up the pitch, Verratti style) or on the left side of a 3-man midfield where he could accelerate the play and move the ball forward.

Well one thing is to challenge Browha is that, should know he always types behalf with the facts

What on earth are you trying to say? :chan:

Perhaps you meant to say "Well, one thing to keep in mind when challenging browha is that he always has the facts on his side."

Or maybe "It is one thing to challenge browha -- it is another to have the facts acting on your behalf [when you do so]."

Or maybe "I accidentally half a bag of flour. Is this dangerous?"

Perhaps "Somebody set us up the bomb."

Anyhow, I'm inclined to think that Inter is not a club that prohibits players from developing properly, even up to the highest potential (I'm very much an idealist when it comes to the positive qualities of Inter). Kova is doing well now, the fans seem to like him, and we've already shown an ability to develop some good talent in Rano and JJ; that said, it could go for the worse since Inter is, as always, traversing difficult times, to which any player can succumb, young or old.

you're missing the third possibility

or strama gets sacked and the new manager plays him at amc

If I'm not mistaken, he's naturally an AM but over the last few years he's been played as CM. So he's capable in those role.

He's too small to play anywhere infront of the defense. That is the definition of madness! He can't play on the right or left because whatever side he is on expect NO COVER to be provided to the full backs.

It's best to play him high up the pitch so he can either;

A. Receive the ball and run at defenders with pace and dribble them
B. Distrubute.

Those that want him infront of the D' are looking to make his career a short one. When he gets absolutely golly smacked by a mid field bruiser.

And I am saying, he is playing OK as a CM, but he will shine as AM.
Why? Because he doesn't have strength like Boateng Marchisio or Vidal for CM, but he has skill and vision like an AM (remind me of Sneijder though, but he is stronger than Sneijder)

Wow, are people here forgetting central midfielders like Pirlo, Xavi, and Veratti exist? If you're good enough on the ball and capable of making quick decisions you don't need to be very strong. It also depends on the other central midfielders in the side.
