Sascha Britschgi
Gets the nod in Torino match
Britschgi had four crosses (zero accurate), one interception and three tackles (one won) in Monday's 3-0 loss against Torino.
Analysis: Britschgi got significant minutes for the first time in three fixtures and tallied new season highs in crosses and tackles, but he lacked precision and struggled defensively, like most of his teammates. He routinely competes for a spot with several options. He has put up five crosses (zero accurate), seven tackles (four won) and four clearances in six showings (four starts).
Takes one shot in Como clash
Britschgi (undisclosed) had two clearances, one cross (zero accurate) and one shot (zero on target) and drew one foul in Monday's 2-1 loss to Como.
Analysis: Britschgi didn't face limitations after a small physical problem and played almost the entire game, but he wasn't particularly active on either end. He has registered three tackles (two won) and four clearances in his first three appearances (all starts).
Selected for Como fixture
Britschgi (undisclosed) has been called up for Monday's clash with Como.
Analysis: Britschgi appears to have avoided any particular consequences after leaving a little early last week and could continue starting if the coach stuck with the same scheme utilized recently. He has recorded three tackles (two won) and two clearances in his two recent starts.
Forced off late against Monza
Britschgi had two tackles and 10 passes and won two of two tackles in 77 minutes in Sunday's 1-1 draw with Monza before exiting due to an injury, coach Carlos Cuesta announced.
Analysis: Britschgi drew his second start in a row but was pretty quiet offensively and will need to be assessed ahead of Monday's clash with Como. "It doesn't look to be too serious, but he'll have to take some tests," the gaffer added. Parma changed the scheme when he left, as they don't have other wing-backs besides Enrico Delprato, who usually plays as a defender.
Serves supension
Britschgi completed a one-game ban in Saturday's 1-0 loss to Cagliari.
Analysis: Britschgi will return for the second round against Juventus on Saturday and will be in contention to start as a winger, where Parma don't have a clear first choice and have been rotating players, including him, in the pre-season. Otherwise, he'll back up Enrico Delprato and Emanuele Valeri on the defensive flanks. He assisted twice, contributed to seven clean sheets and notched 49 crosses (11 accurate), 33 tackles and 38 clearnces in 29 appearances (22 starts) last year.
Will miss next season's opener
Britschgi had one cross (zero on target), drew one foul, committed one and received his fifth yellow card in Sunday's 1-0 win over Sassuolo.
Analysis: Britschgi resumed starting after a few rounds as Enrico Delprato wasn't fit, but didn't put up numbers on either end and will be unavailable for the next match due to yellow-card accumulation. He fell out of favor late as Parma switched to a more defensive-minded formation, tallying two assists, 49 crosses (11 accurate), 33 tackles and 38 clearances in 29 displays (22 starts).
Serves disqualification
Britschgi cleared a one-game ban in Sunday's 1-0 loss to Como.
Analysis: Britschgi will return against Sassuolo and resume deputizing Enrico Delprato on the right wing. He has tallied four clearnaces, three crosses (one accurate) and two tackles (both won) in his last five showings (two starts).
Booked twice in Roma tilt
Britschgi registered one clearance and picked up two yellow card in 16 minutes in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Roma.
Analysis: Britschgi had a very poor stint off the bench, committing two avoidable fouls and causing a very late PK. He'll be unavailable for next Sunday's away game versus Como. He has been deputizing Enrico Delprato on the right flank in recent fixtures.
