Contested, but irreplaceable: without Vlahovic Juventus doesn’t win

The late goal against Venezia, with subsequent discussions with their fans and apologies at the end of the match and the subsequent peace sanctioned by the goals in the Italian Cup: Dusan Vlahovic confirms that he is always at the center of attention when it comes to Juventus.

On the other hand, as he points out La Gazzetta dello Sport on newsstands today, “he has an average of 0.6 goals for every match played this season for Juventus; Juventus, on the other hand, did not go beyond 0.33 per match in the period in which the Serbian was unavailable”. In short, behind him, although he is certainly not a player free from criticism, there is no one who can worthily replace him, even for reasons of role rather than performance.

“This data would be enough to explain how much the offensive production of Thiago Motta’s team rests its foundations on the performances of its centre-forward, but the importance of the man with the number 9 on his shoulders is certainly not limited to a statistic”, underlines the newspaper then , who explains how for someone like him “leadership, role in the maneuver, consistency, commitment to training and so on” also matter a lot. Tonight at 8.45pm the Bianconeri are on stage in Monza, to chase away the draw and relaunch their prices.
