Il centrocampista ex Chelsea ha deluso nuovamente contro il Napoli, perdendo il duello fisico con McTominay ma non solo
Another setback for Torino, the second in two weeks after the one against Como. At the Maradona against Napoli the granata failed to play the game they had in mind, going into a disadvantage after very few minutes. For the rest, it was total blue domination, also complicit in the attitude of Vanoli’s team that left something to be desired. Little grit and a lot of fear that made it more difficult for the Toro effort, which hardly ever made itself dangerous. So many failures, including that of Casadei. For the midfielder arrived from Chelsea it was yet another underwhelming game: will it be the fault of the physical condition?
Casadei in difficoltà
Still lined up as a starter, Casadei could not count on the support of Ricci, who was injured during the warm-up. The whole thing may have affected the match plan and his performance, but obviously one cannot limit oneself to just that. The class of 2003 appeared very much in trouble on the physical level, failing to excel in what would be his main characteristic. This was especially seen in the duel with McTominay, won without a shadow of a doubt by the Scottish midfielder of Napoli. As said, it is starting to be a bit the consecutive matches in which the Ravenna man appears not at his best, and this could be dictated by a drop in condition. Indeed, the former Chelsea man has gone from playing virtually never in England to being virtually always on the field for 90 minutes, something he was not used to. Perhaps, perhaps, he could use some rest.
