Only way I'd bet against Juve is to play reverse psychology against fate, to communicate to God, this is how much I'm giving up for this Juve win. It's the story of Abraham and Isaac. But I still don't actually do it. Stop it. Also, you can't bet for Juve either, then you kill the karma by...

FSC is showing the match! I'm not like you guys I don't have a functional internet this is huge for me. Day = made. I don't know why everyone is down on Rupert Murdoch he's very good to me.

Thank you for saying what should be said. I love this guy too, worker who can play multiple positions, some better than others obviously, but productive wherever you put him. He's fragile, and is it me or is he a bit of a hothead? maybe that explains some of the inconsistency. But he's...

A week later melo's words are still in circulation. Posted 9 hours ago: http://blogs.bettor.com/Felipe-Melo-and-Luigi-Delneri-to-leave-Juventus%2c-Alberto-Aquilani-to-move-back-to-Liverpool-a65754 "Luckily" the article goes on to note that no one is willing to come here to replace Delneri...

Do the Qaddafis still have shares in Juve?

Yeah, I asked whether he would start for us, and you explained why he doesn't start for Spurs. I already knew why he doesn't start for Spurs, and I don't share your apparent assumption that quality in front on another club means starter status on our club, even if our MF isn't as good. I'm...

I never asked why he doesn't play, so no, I don't need an answer to a question I never asked lol. My point is he doesn't play. What assumptions can you make about a guy who doesn't play? I like him just fine, if we can get him cheap, do it. But I'm not assuming starter/impact status for this guy...

When he does get to play the impression I have of him is brilliant moments, not stable play throughout. But he doesn't get to play. And maybe this is snobbish but the clubs most interested in him are the likes of Werder Bremen and Everton. Would he start for us?

Someone mentioned Kranjcar but he never plays, and lots of middling/poor teams are interested in him. Some impressive moments when he does play no doubt. But he seems like a project, not an impact player. I've seen numbers from £3-£10 million for him. The high end of that makes me think of...

Seriously though, I said the same thing. I can't believe we're striving for mediocrity. I'd much rather we consider it a failure by several spots.

So I looked up some valuations of Modric. Seeing £40-50 mill tossed about. Jesus-! Every few years I find myself stupefied by how much fees have inflated. I seem to be always working from numbers from 4-5 years back. Anyway -- never mind about Modric, even as a prop for a more generalized...

Wasn't Wenger going to come here, you know, before the unpleasantness? Is that route closed to us forever? Could we at least try? I really like his charts and graphs, I'm superkeen into the econometric approach to sports.

No doubt. But my big thing is the same is true of Marchisio, and I just want whatever moves him back to the middle. I'm not wedded to Modric, give me another name.

I've seen him play on the left plenty.

Well I disagree that Modric is a waste of space on the left, but he's the only name I've heard even mentioned that I recognize that's on the left.

But it seems like you could compile a list like that for most of the names discussed on this sub-board, and most would command even more money, no? I have a hard time believing Neymar is coming here for example. I'm not arguing for Modric btw, I don't like the thought of going after any big...

Are you talking about Giorgio's comments about wanting to stay here? I've heard that a lot, right before that guy gets moved.

Is it certain it'd be Mazzarri? And what are some of the benefits to keeping Delneri? The only thing I've heard in favor of this guy so far is continuity and our roster is going to change a lot anyway.

Well I was first and foremost talking about him in comparison with Nasri. But would Modric command a bank-busting fee? And I would not mind having quality on the left, especially a guy who could play middle also.

I don't want to get into a Baggio debate on this forum but I want to at least note that I beg to differ.
