He'll fit in just perfectly, just give him a bit time and he'll be just like Giaccherini.

Regarding Caceres, he had a great game and his second goal was simply stunning. but let's take a look at his defending shall we? i'm not criticizing him i'm just stating that my comment about him leaving gaps in the back holds it's ground. he left el shaarawy a couple of times back for Barzagli to handle him and was causing extra work for the CB's, while if Licht had been playing i'm almost 100% certain that that wouldn't have happened, and that's the reason i can't see him playing as one of the 2 CB's in a 4-3-3 (he could fit nicely in a 3-5-2 though).

oh and i expect that some of haters will start calling us cheats again because of the Ibra goal and the non-called offside when Vučinić had that clear cut chace...well haters gonna hate....

I noticed that to about caceres and tbh I don't consider you as person who lacks knowledge in Serie A it was some ex posters :/

but ppl will argue that caceres was playing RWB something that he adors and he is great at.

We have to see more from him in a formation with 4 at the back to judge

cale1991 wrote:that's true, that's why i said that i'm not criticizing him. every player needs an adjustment period (some shorter, some longer) when he changes teams and comes under the guidance of a new coach, it's only logical.

also a fact is that IMO Licht is better at defending on the flank because he can keep his cool (despite constantly arguing with the ref's, which by the way doesn't affect his game) and doesn't get carried away by other circumstances and happenings on the field, while Caceres is quite prone like BonBon to lose his cool and forget what his primary job was. But those are things which come with age and experience, and shouldn't be a big obstacle for him.
