    Lets just get Van Persie and Cavani! We will be a world class team with those signings. Thats 70-80m but will get at least 30m Euros for Elia, Krasic and Melo....and another 10m for selling Giovinco, Padoin, Pazienza, Ziegler and Martinez. Net spend 30-40m which = money from champions...

    Haha, or sell both Quags and Matri for 30m.....Elia, Krasic, Melo for 30m = proceeds of 60m. Buy Van Persie = 35m, Cavani = 35m, Giovinco = 7m (for 50%), Drogba (free)...total = 77m. Vucinic, Giovinco, Van Persie, Cavani, Drogba BIG UPGRADE on what we have for just 17m! Only downside is...

    Borriello leaving is a no-brainer. Del Piero already confirmed to leave unless Agnelli changes his mind. In my opinion, one of Matri and Quags needs to go - and I am not quite sure which one should leave. That leaves Vucinic as our only striker for certain who would stay. Bottom line...

    Giovinco won't and should not play as left wing back. He is a support striker or attacking left forward in a 433 or potentially within a 424. Giovinco won't be that good defensively.

    Those three players are likely to cost us close to 100m all up. However if we got those three, I would sell Quagliarella & Giovinco to help raise the funds. That could get you 20m and then you would get 30m from selling Krasic, Elia and Melo. Net outlay would be 50m. Bring in Immobile from...

    I don't think we should pay big for any central defenders given that Bonucci is staying. We have Chiellini, Barzagli, Bonucci and Caceres as viable central defending options. If we do get another central defender, it better be a loan or cheap option because that player will be a bench warmer...

    Robben only has 1 year left on his contract. I agree that he would usually cost more than 35m. But he only has 1 year left - that puts a big discount on his usual price.

    IN: Van Persie (35m), Robben (20m), Dzeko (25m), Caceres (7m), Nesta (free), Giovinco (7m for 50%) = ~95m OUT: Krasic (9m), Elia (7m), Quagliarella (10m), Melo (10m), Bonucci (8-10m), Padoin (3m), Martinez 2-3m, Others (5m) = 55-60m. NET = ~35-40m. Its a lot but we have spent more in the...

    Ok if it was entirely up to me, I would sell: Bonucci (8-10m) Elia (7-8m) Krasic (7-8m) Melo (10m - still haven't got the money till after season) Quagliarella (12m) Borriello (was a loan) Martinez (3m) Padoin (6m) Del Piero (going anyway) Total Proceeds: close to EU50-55m BUY: Van Persie...

    I don't know about you guys but Vucinic looks like a different player when playing up front in a 4-4-2. Not sure he is best used out wide in a 4-3-3.

    Key here is to think about players to sell first in order to upgrade the squad. Players I would like to see leave are: Bonucci Elia (Conte won't use him and he is still worth something) Krasic Estigarribia Padoin Vucinic Boriello Elia and Krasic as well as Martinez should net us 15-20m in...

    I wouldn't get too hung up on the Pirlo replacement. Players with Pirlo specific characteristics are rare in the modern game in any case. Marrone and Appelt are young players which have some characteristics in common with Pirlo. They are players for the future still (still need a lot of work...

    I 100% believe that De Rossi will NEVER leave Roma to join Juve, Milan or Inter. My guess is he will probably stay at Roma or will move to EPL or La Liga.

    Van Persie is sheer class - He alone would make a huge difference to the team. He can be a real leader on the pitch. Closest thing to a Del Piero heir and we need one next season.

    To be honest, I would rather sell Both Elia and Krasic as they won't be used. That would bag us close to EU20m for both. Don't forget we get the proceeds for Melo next season as well. The total would be 30m. I would also ditch Bonucci for 8m. So hopefully we should have more than an extra...

    Hahaha. I love your enthusiasm but for a start Del Piero won't be here next season. Good looking side though. Your biggest mistake in your prediction is that the only Italian player you have coming in is Leali. You know with Marotta that won't be the case....expect more average Italian players.

    Been here before with De Ceglie. Plays well for 2 or 3 games, then costs us points. He is a bit like Bonucci in that way. Just not reliable over a long stretch of time. I remember De Ceglie stringing together a few good games over the last 4 years.
