IMO it doesn't either. They're either holding it close to 18 August (or 31 August?) to see how high the bidders are really going to go; or, they truly intend to keep him another year and let him leave on a free at the age of 30. Some in the Arsenal camp feel that if he is forced to stay another...

correction: Marotta's eye. :jvefan:

:inter:

Not a positive quote from Marotta. In DS speak that reads more like Arsenal aren't even the slightest bit interested in discussing a bid under 20m euros.

Won't be leaving City unless they pick-up another striker. Same goes for Tevez.

cuz it wasn't a bargain deal.

Marotta does this every summer... right before the season ends he claims Champions are ready to sign for us... then as June comes and goes it's a 'top player of quality'... by July, it's 'a player not with a big name but can improve our quality'... end of august we get a toni, borriello, or a...

interesting.

:sergio:

Yeah but when Della Valle says it, he does it. As mentioned above, he did it with Toni and Mutu and didn't sell them until a year later.

Conte has a very modest charge. If found guilty, a large fine would be the most likely outcome -- not a ban. The only Juve-associated person with a serious charge is Bonucci. Thus why Juve are on full-blown getting a centre-back mode.

We don't know any of the facts or evidence against Conte - so I can't say how likely it is or isn't. But a hefty fine for failing to report an attempt to fix a match is a very realistic outcome if he is even found guilty of that charge. Because a fine would be likely - all the more reason to...

the minimum is just a fine - not a 3-month ban.

If he is given a guilty verdict in the sporting court trial, he will have to serve any punishment that they come up with. There is no appeal option necessarily, he can 'appeal' it with the choice to sue the Sporting Justice Committee in a Civil court over their verdict and proceedings.. which...

He's not accused of anything too major. Conte's accused (as well as Alessio and Stellini) of having knowledge of a 'fix' before or after a match and failing to report it to sporting authorities. The most extreme punishment would be a 6-month total ban, but that would be highly unlikely unless...

"out of this world good" :lol:

Agreed. :tup: we're getting closer.

25m is steep -- but he fills our urgent need. The trofeo TIM this past saturday was yet another reminder that we create 5 times as many chances than our opponents but we couldn't finish any of them. It's an urgent need and 25m euros for RvP, who is a top class finisher, it's what we need to...

Reports say the new offer by Marotta is in the realm of 18M-20M euros.
