Re: Bonucci is the best CB in the world now hands down.

Agreed Doc. I think its just been a tough year for him. Losing the CL final was heavy, then he joined Milan for an exciting project and a fresh start and it went about as bad as it could. Combine that with Italy not making the World Cup and his season has quickly been written off as a failure.

I'm sad because I've always been a fan of Bonucci, even when he joined us from Bari and looked completely out of his depth.

Pepe the only standing veteran left Proud

Milan should go rescue him from that nothing team he is playing for though

Fabio Capello gave a damning description of Milan and Italy star Leonardo Bonucci. “He’s great with the ball at his feet, but he can’t defend.”

He made 2 CL finals playing in a back 4 though.

and you were shattered in both finals, the man has a point. it's not a badge of honour

Meh, Bonucci was an immense defender with Juventus over the last 6 years, undeniable truth.

He's been worse than his first season at Juventus with Milan though, and he was bad, like really bad, that season

haven't heard much, but since Milan's 'resurgence' (just checked and they're currently 7th lmao, this is what they hype was over? christ) have his performances picked up too? or is he still potential worst big signing of the season?

Yeah, he's been great. Looks worth the transfer fee, not sure if he's worth the wages he's on though

I think he makes double what Chiellini does, for example
