Stefano Sensi

[YoramG]

He'll last 2 months, break something, and then be sent on loan/spend the rest of the season in the physio's office, before leaving on a free.

 

[Meysam]

played 28 games last season and missed 5 or 6.....

This is a good number to consider him as 6th mid

 

[NimAraya]

You meant after his first injury in the 80th min against Monza? Sure, he'll probably get injured again in a month.

He will stay injury free when the mercato is still open. Right when it's closed he will get injured and we start insulting Inzaghi for overplaying our starting midfielders. The same issue can happen upfront if Correa stays put. Arna and Thuram are not very trust worthy when it comes to injuries either. Same can be said about our aging defenders too.

 

[vex]

Yeah, I wouldn't give him another chance tbh. Good guy it seems, great player, but we need certainties. I don't buy for second narrative that we can take the risk because he is a sixth midfielder. Exactly in that position we need someone who can reliably eat up minutes from our main mids.

 

[Alex de Large]

Max he will take is the Gagliardini role, and how time did he get? maybe 5 min every 2 games and a couple of games as starter in Coppa Italia.

Gagliardini role last season isn't a good representation of how much time a sixth midfielder should play. Inzaghi didn't trust him at all, hence constant insistence on barella, hakan and mkhi even when they desperately needed the rest.

Just compare the role gagliardini had during conte tenure when he was a proper rotational midfielder and under inzaghi where he was used as an absolute last resort option and late substitute.

 

[Wobblz]

Gags has played 1038'... that's ~8.5 full games or around 35 minutes for the 29 stars he had in all comps.

I know man but there must be a scientific explanation for that right?. nowdays many clubs/players are struggling with that. there must be a way to reduce these injuries.
Maybe trying traditional medicine or whatever this shit is called wouldn't be a bad idea. If I were Sensi, I would try every solution I would find to fix this shit at all costs.
I recall a player said in his interview that he almost recovered from , I think, his knee injury by running a lot. I'm not saying what he said is true or proven but, at least he was trying to fix his injury by a new solution which maybe is not so scientific though.

There are genetic differences here. For example I have always been in good condition physically, like muscles plus oxygen uptake. Yet I had to stop playing football at 19 because of too loose joints. My knees aren’t built for football, and absolutely nothing would have changed that. My body simply cannot take it.

And I bet if it wasn’t the knees, it would have been something else later. Recently fucked up my shoulder because of genetically having these shit joints.

Oh boy... here is our new signing for the midfield.

That or normal procedure before loaning out because no one wants to buy him

I think it more like insurance in case he performs well this season and stays fit. I don't know how long will be that extension, but if it is one year hopefully with the same salary or even lower.

 

[nurko]

Yep, I don't think we can go wrong there much.
Let's see if he can stay fit, may be a blessing in disguise missing out on Lazar and retaining Sensi.

 

[magnesium]

Sensi is worldclass. Just get him proper playing time. I am sure this season he will become best super sub just like Sanchez.

 

[Strale]

If someone told me few months ago that I would be all in for Sensi's comeback I would have ignored it as madness, but here we are...my club

 

[brightbackground]

This thread is overdosing on hopium. You all know damn well he's going to break himself as soon as the mercato ends. I'd say I hope the club isn't dumb enough to renew the contract of a player who was rejected by Sampdoria and Monza, but unfortunately I know better than that.

 

[StefanNedelchev]

well i prefer to have sensi as 6th midfielder than fucking gags.. i think our midfield is improved this season.

If Sensi can stay fit yeah I agree

He's world class tho!

I don't know what this club is gonna do with this guy, but even he stays we should find a cheap or free midfielder as I don't want us to suffer from the lack of reliable players on the bench like we did in the last 2 seasons. The season is long and injuries will come, specially to those who have a rich history of suffering them. If Pereyra is still available go for him. Sensi can compete with him if he stays and remain uninjured.
