Can Giovinco step into Del Piero’s shoes?

Now with 22 years, Sebastian Giovinco is on his way to prove himself to the world of football. This highly gifted player as on ball control and speed his main arguments to trash the opponents defensive lines. Good with the ball, his also capable of good moves off-ball, giving his teammates passing lines in front of goal. A cornerstone in the Azzurra younger categories Giovinco his facing this season the ultimate test at Juventus. Del Piero’s recent decision to leave la vecchia signora in the end of the 09/10 season gives this forward a new responsibility - is he ready to be the new ‘10’?
Back to Juventus from loan in the last couple of seasons, Giovinco has been a good sub, rarely on the starting eleven, as been used like a shake-up factor, when things look nasty they send him to the field. That’s a good credential, but my main worry is the lack of pace, he seems to get always with a cool start, but after 15/20 minutes he tends to disappear from the game. Luckily in this summer we can see him play on the Italy Under 21 squad, and my biggest worries are being put to sleep as he played the whole game with good pace.

Tip: A real shake up factor, Giovinco is a highly gifted player with the ability to crack up any defense. With Del Piero ending his Juventus reign the young Sebastian need to prove himself within the team. From what I’ve seen he’s up for it.
