"I took it as a compliment, as a different way of describing my characteristics. I think that that's the way football is going these days, occupying the spaces that we create on the pitch. There's a lot [of comparisons], if I had to name a name, I'd say Calafiori. He starts at full-back and ends up in attack. That's how it is in general with Arsenal. I watch them, I study them,"
"and if you asked Spalletti, I'm sure he'd also say: 'Yes, I watch the Gunners'. Cucurella was also everywhere for Chelsea the other night [against Qarabag]."
Andrea Cambiaso, a 25-year-old Juventus full-back, scored in Luciano Spalletti's first game in charge and assisted Federico Gatti in a 3-1 win over Udinese. Cambiaso has recorded three assists in each of his last three Serie A campaigns and scored twice across the previous two seasons. Cambiaso is described as a '3D' player for his ability to impact all areas of the pitch. Cambiaso studies attacking full-backs such as Riccardo Calafiori and Marc Cucurella and examines Arsenal's wide full-back movement to increase offensive influence. Torino sit 13th in Serie A, five points behind Juventus after ten matches and remain unbeaten in five league games, though three draws have occurred in that run.
