Yeah, the options do not seem to be active in the January window, so Real Madrid would in theory have to negotiate with Juve as they would for any transfer - meaning Juve could refuse to negotiate or ask for much more than is provided for in the summer options.

Juve's 4-3-1-2 was strange last season because the creativity came from Pogba and Pirlo. You almost needed a non-traditional trequartista to make that midfield work. With Marchisio playing as the regista, Juve are back to having a much more orthodox midfield three, so they don't need as...

Didn't seem impossible when Juve were trouncing them last season.

You've rather missed the point of the article if you think the article is talking up the importance of Mein Kampf.

Certainly worrying stuff going on. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jan/11/mein-kampf-returns-to-germany-world-awash-with-hatred

So far all the talk has been of David Cameron’s demands. But the EU would hold all the power in post-Brexit negotiations, so it should spell out how it would make an outgoing Britain suffer http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jan/11/europe-turn-tables-bullying-britain-david-cameron-eu

To show he's still pure.

Congrats on finally getting a good keeper.

Combined issue between Bonucci and Rugani. Bonucci gets drawn towards the ball when Cassano plays it to Carbonero and so isn't able to recover when the ball is played back. Rugani is serving no purpose in his position and should have been up closer to Cassano to give himself a chance to make a...

Meh. Style's fine - not a fan of that colour.

I thought he did fine. Overplayed a couple of times and got caught on the ball, but he's an attacking player and hasn't played in ages, so I don't think you can be particularly critical of him for that. He was in the rather awkward position of always having the danger behind him. His primary...

Thought it was 5 this season, but they have mucked about a little with the rules in the last couple of years.

All they need to do is find another Suarez. How hard can that be? Klopp is good, but I don't know how effective his pressing will be in England. While it isn't the dedicated long-ball country it used to be, there are still plenty of teams that are very hard to press because of how happy they...

If I was in Rugani's place, I'd be pretty miffed that Caceres played.

Triumphalism at the perceived plights of Louis van Gaal and Jürgen Klopp is regressive, paradoxical and does little for the domestic game in England http://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2016/jan/07/louis-van-gaal-jurgen-klopp-manchester-united-liverpool-foreign-managers

Has anyone signed for Juve three times before?

This month the phoney war over Euro membership will get slightly more real. The Electoral Commission is to issue guidance for groups wanting to register as official “campaigners” in the Brexit referendum, and an outline of the rules. We know the Conservative party will not register, remaining...

Haven't seen it. This is about me trying to look like a Black Panther.
