Nani is pretty inconsistent. Shouldn't be going for him imo.

Thank you. Remember him doing it vs Roma (I think) for Empoli back in 2007/08. I think it was the goal for the 2-2.

I dislike the incessant chopping and changing of strikers up front.

It would be funny of we win with a non-existant penalty!:D

We played a back four last year with Bonucci and Barzagli in the middle and Chiellini on the left in a 4-3-3.

I prefer something like this: Buffon (Storari) Barzagli (Masi) Bonucci (Lucio) Chiellini (Caceres) Isla (Lichsteiner) Vidal (Pogba) Pirlo (Marrone) Marchisio (Giaccherini) Asamoah (De Ceglie) Giovinco (Quagliarella) Matri (Matri)

Since January (ish), Bonucci has deserved his place in the line-up. It's a really strong squad apart from the front line. I only really have faith in Vucinic, Giovinco and to some extent Matri and even less Quagliarella.

It's internationals next week. He did recently complete a Primavera match so shouldn't be too long before we see him play.

Pazzini isn't that bad!

Well, they're obviously not the most successful Italian team. I don't care what they say, tbh. They can call themselves the biggest Italian club for all I care.

Juve are Italy's most successful club. Milan have more international titles but we play in the same country so you include all domestic trophies. Not a hard concept really.

It's not all about Champions League. I prefer to win Serie A. That's the bread and butter.

Gio and Matri looked really good at times in pre-season. I wouldn't mind seeing them as the first choice.

Quag and Giac are squad players.

Really? We sold Zidane abroad. Used the money and our transfer kitty to get Buffon, Thuram and Nedved. The result: a better return in the next 5 years than the 5 years with Zidane. Just an example but Juve's teams are almost always majority Italian/Serie A based.

That's not what I said. What I am trying to get at why we don't seem to be busy in Latin America. I am not saying we should just do all our shopping there but a little more scouting in that region may be beneficial. At the same time, I do understand that we can't really afford to take chances...

If his idea was to get Llorente for free next year and hence only getting a stop gap player for a year in Bendtner, it might be a bit tricky because Barcelona are planning to make Llorente an offer in January (according to barcastuff on twitter). Quagliarella is better than Bendtner. I should...

Porto made 7x the amount they paid for Falcao when they sold him to Atletico for €35m. Milan signed Kaká from Sao Paolo for €7m, was it?

People seem to forget that Barzagli was highly rated in Italy before he left for Germany. Fabio Cannavaro called him the next big thing. Bonucci had one bad year at Juve from January 2011 to January 2012. Since then he has been a beast and is absolutely great when 1-on-1 against an attacker...

Just steal the scouts from Udinese, Napoli and Palermo!:D
