great, hope we don't rush him in like we did with Pato though

To be fair, the risks are unlikely to be comparable to Pato's, however I only expect him to be used as a late substitute - though does Max have any other type - for the next few matches, perhaps playing with the youth team still if he is unused and scheduling allows for it.

If we put Fiorentina to the sword it would be a fantastic morale boost to see Cassano play the last ten-fifteen minutes, though I'm in no rush as long as he's brought back at the right pace and is able to develop match fitness for the Euros at his own pace.

He should only play 20mins maximum.

on the game... we need to put Fiorentina to the sword to send a warning out and to boost our confidence. At the same time, the less we look like slipping up, the more demoralised Juve will get (and the more likely it is that they will draw or lose). We have control of the league and we need to take advantage of it.
