Pietro Pellegri - Wins eight duels in Milan game Pellegri drew five fouls, won eight duels, and had one tackle (zero won) in 68 minutes in Saturday's 4-1 defeat to AC Milan.

Impact Pellegri played a lot since Antonio Sanabria subbed off early but didn't have a lot of success in the final third, other than being a muscular presence. He's technically next in line should the starter miss time, but the coach also has the option of using Nikola Vlasic as a false-nine. He has scored twice and added ten shots (five on target), and five key passes in 18 appearances last season (four starts), often struggling to stay healthy.

AUGUST 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Vanja Milinkovic-Savic - Blown away by Milan Milinkovic-Savic made three saves and allowed four goals in Saturday's 1-4 defeat to AC Milan.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ricardo Rodriguez - Wins nine duels versus Cagliari Rodriguez had three clearances and one tackle (one won), drew two fouls, and won nine duels in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Alessandro Buongiorno - Sturdy in opener Buongiorno had two tackles (two won), four clearances, one block, and three interceptions in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Samuele Ricci - Serviceable against Cagliari Ricci won one of two tackles and had one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (one accurate), and three corners in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

Impact Ricci did a little bit of everything but didn't excel in any area in particular in a bland collective showing for his side. He recorded two goals, one assist, 31 crosses (eight accurate), and 32 tackles in 28 matches last season.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ivan Ilic - Swings in five crosses in opener Ilic created two scoring chances, won three duels, and had five crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Monday's 0-0 draw versus Cagliari.

Raoul Bellanova - Fares well in Torino debut Bellanova recorded six crosses (one accurate), one interception, and two chances created in Monday's 0-0 draw versus Cagliari.

Impact Bellanova stepped in to replace Wilfried Singo as expected and was energetic, although he lacked some touch in his deliveries. Torino will likely add another option the wings, but he's poised for a major role since they invested him to purchase him.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nemanja Radonjic - Provides spark against Cagliari Radonjic had four shots (one on goal), won three duels, and had two successful take-ons in 45 minutes in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

Impact Radonjic didn't get the start but was fizzy off the bench and paced his team in shots, although he came close to the target just once. He had started to gain pace before a thigh strain last season. He's poised for a regular role unless Torino sign another attacker, as they have yet to replace Aleksej Miranchuk, who was a staple.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

David Zima - Subs in late against Cagliari Zima (knee) had two clearances and one interception in 15 minutes in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

Impact Zima bolstered the defense late in the game coming off a minor knee injury. He's next in line should one of the starters go down since Koffi Djidji is on the shelf, but he'll likely get spotty minutes until somebody is forced to miss a game.

AUGUST 22, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Nikola Vlasic - Quiet versus Cagliari Vlasic drew one foul, won seven duels and one tackle, and had two successful take-ons in Monday's 0-0 draw against Cagliari.

Impact Vlasic had one of the best chances of the game thanks to a quick combination with Yann Karamoh, but a defender blocked him before he could finish in a one-on-one with the goalie. He didn't record any offensive stat in a paltry showing. The fact that he had been de facto frozen out by West Ham during the summer before a late move could affect him in the early going from a conditioning standpoint. Torino will visit Milan Saturday.
