Player expectations for next season (Andrea Barzagli)

Last year Andrea was an important part in the back three that kept one of the best defensive records in Europe. He was able to read the opponents play excellently but not only defending brilliantly he also scored a few last year and was a main target from set pieces.

Andrea is getting on a bit now aged 32 and I feel that next year may be his last year playing at the top level however as shown by other defending greats like Maldini you can still defend well at an old age. Hopefully the purchase of Ogbonna will lead to better performances from Andrea Barzagli who will have to fight for his place next season more than ever. But with Chiellini and Bonucci surrounding him at the back I am sure that next year Andrea will once again be a great defender who is part of an even better back three.
