I tend to agree with that. The Tevez story breaking came at the worst time for Marotta - all it does is add another potential suitor to the market.

All quite possible. Therefore it becomes an argument as to whether to you agree with Marotta's analysis that Rossi + another player is a better arrangement for Juve than Aguero alone (which was debated here yesterday). I don't think Marotta's negotiations tactic are foolish - I actually...

True - he may have no clue what is going on. Which means one of two things: 1) He doesn't have any idea as to what is going on and therefore no Juve fans should worry what he says 2) It's a negotiating ploy and he wnats to get his son paid. Also, wouldn't it make sense that the Atletico...

More of a board reader than one who actually posts but here's my take: Negotiations for highly-skilled players can drive fans to insanity with all of the rumored good news and bad news. Every quote we read however has a purpose behind it. Aguero's Dad says that his son will stay in Madrid...

You're missing my point here. I'm not suggesting that the 4-4-2 is the right fit for this team. I need to see who we let go of and who we're going to bring in. My point is this: if we bring in the suitable players to run play a 4-4-2 and Diego is the only thing in our way from doing that...

I don't have an opinion on the formation....yet....let's see how the transfer market plays out and then we can make a determination. The avoiding bullshit: a coach only will develop a system to his players if his players were successful in a different formation. Diego, much like the rest of...

No - read my previous posts. No one played well enough last year to warrant altering a formation towards their style of play aka we badly need better, quicker, more creative players. I said I think we should keep Diego, I said that, but he didn't play well enough last year to justify...

That's my point - thank you for saying it better than I could!:hellyes:

Whilst it's impractical to suggest that every player be sold - there are more that should be sold than those that should be kept. My point: if Diego had a monstrous year Del Neri/Morrata would find a way to integrate him - maybe they would even avoid playing a 4-4-2 because Diego is good...

It doesn't appear that Del Neri is set to sell everyone - we don't even know for sure if he Diego is on the way out. My point is this: If Juve are selling players this offseason it may be because they didn't fit a 4-4-2 or whatever but ultimately it comes down to they're getting sold because...

I hear what you're saying - I don't have the pessimistic attitude towards the new administration that you have. Outside of Diego - is there anyone who's been rumored to exit that you'd be upset about? I'd be fine if they offloaded Camo, Trez, Amauri, whoever.

And the players at his disposal don't provide me with much confidence at this point. This was simply an awful season and a change in strategy is needed. We agree on Diego. By your logic, the issues this year were more strategy based than personnel based and I don't think you believe...

If you hire a coach - wouldn't you want players brought on board that fit the system? No coach is capable of teaching and then executing every system there is. If Del Neri specializes in the 4-4-2 then we need players who will best execute that strategy. My preference is to keep Diego no...

It's unfair to Brazzo and Grygera though - on a CL squad they are fill ins against poor league opponents. But for Juve that puts everything on the line for Coppa and Serie A - they get scrutinized way more than they shuold. Brazzo and Grygera remind me of solid role players in the NBA. On...

I'm currently sitting on the fence with Molinaro. Dude has endless energy and he makes solid runs. He can't cross for shit and his mental lapses are inexclipable. But......I'm caught up in Juve spirit right now. We just did work on Roma. I honestly thought a draw would be a great result...
