Attack/Defence Awareness Card:
BalancedINFO:Thiago Motta was a central or defensive midfielder. His career began in 1999 at Barcelona B. He was promoted to the main squad two years later. He played 147 matches and scored 10 goals for the
Blaugrana from 2001 to 2007. After an unfortunate season at Atlético de Madrid, he joined Genoa in 2008. His only season with the
Grifoni was very good: 27 games, 6 goals and near qualification to UEFA Champions League. In 2009 he left for Inter, where he played 83 matches and scored 12 goals in two seasons and a half, winning the 2009-10 UEFA Champions League. He then had his most consistent time at Paris Saint-Germain, playing 231 games and scoring 12 goals from 2012 to 2018, when he retired. In rare occasions he was used as centre back. Naturalised Italian, he gained 30 caps for Italy and scored once.
Thiago Motta was a midfielder effective in attacking plays but also able in the defensive phase. He was strong and his playstyle was essential. He had very good tactical intelligence and his passes were a mix of accuracy and speed. He was quite slow but gifted with good technique and dribbling as well as the ability and timing to insert himself in the opposing box without the ball, mainly to take advantage of his good heading. He was dangerous outside the area thanks to his powerful long range shots. He suffered several bad injuries that limited his condition and consistency throughout his career.
