Many fans preferred Nicolo Fagioli to retain his starting position, partnering Paul Pogba and Manuel Locatelli in midfield.
Juventus are unbeaten in Serie A with Manuel Locatelli and Nicolo Fagioli at the helm, with four wins and one draw.
Juventus with Nicolo Fagioli and Manuel Locatelli starting from the beginning in Serie A:
✅ Juventus 2-0 Inter
✅ Hellas Verona 0-1 Juventus
✅ Juventus 3-0 Lazio
✅ Cremonese 0-1 Juventus

Paul Pogba is set to make his official debut on Sunday against Monza, having been out injured for a long time. Once he is 100% fit there is no doubt that he will start from the beginning.
On the other hand, there is Adrien Rabiot, who had a very good season but since his return from the World Cup he has not maintained the level he was at before.
Leandro Paredes is also another option in the midfield, but since he arrived at Juventus, he has not been playing at the expected level, where it is expected that Juventus will even not keep him next season.
So many Juventus fans want Nicolò Fagioli to keep his place in the team after scoring three goals in 12 appearances in Serie A so far this season.

Yes, for now with Rabiot and Loca. As soon as we are sure of Pogba level, I'll bench Rabiot
