First real match on right now, the Coppa Italia matchup vs Novara. 2 - 0 (Ljajic, Pasqual)
While it's only Novara, the passing has been downright awesome even with Aquilani out, easily the best midfield we've had since Montolivo, Liverani, Kuzmanovic, the potential is there to be even better.
Borja Valero looks as good as he did with Villarreal, obviously too soon to see if he will break the curse of the Spanish in Serie A, but he looks plenty comfortable to me. Ljajic is on fire goals wise, perhaps the Delio Rossi incident really did wake him up. Mati and Cuadrado came on in the second half to put on a dribbling clinic. The defense hasn't had to do much but Roncaglia continues to look like a steal.
Of course Novara is a Serie B team so the lack of finishing and an untested defense might be exposed against better teams, but that level of possession domination is a good sign.
MOTM for me is Valero.
