Grosso has to be registered as a Juve player before the deadline i.e. the deal must be completed in it's entirety.

Given that it is Aulas we are dealing with, I will be extremely impressed if we get Grosso for less than 3m.

Maybe we should sign Materazzi as well, then. He looked world class for a couple of weeks in 2006 despite not being close to that level in the rest of his career.

Short term move, but he is better than any of our other LBs right now. If we have an attacking LB and a more defensive RB, but with Camo providing width from the right of the diamond midfield, it should offer a nice balance.

That just means you can't make fun of that transfer. The likes of me who never thought he would get close to his former greatness can chuckle all we want.

Congratulations. You are less stupid than a hell of a lot of people.

I don't understand the question.

That would tie in with Gigli's comments today about waiting to strengthen the defence.

I was wondering that the other day. I couldn't come up with any logical explanation.

Genoa had/have the rights to buy one half, which messed things up. Assuming there is no unknown clause in the co-ownership agreement to Genoa's advantage, we can come to an agreement with Genoa to buy back their half or just out-bid them if we can't reach an agreement.

I said if. If he doesn't appear to be what we need, we don't bring him back. We can't have him just now because Secco fucked up, so we find a short-term alternative this summer.

We get Grosso for a year and then we can bring Criscito back, if he has done well, next summer. I fail to see the problem.

That you love being proved right. It's never happened as far as I can recall.

How do you know?

:tup:

Criscito-Chiellini-???????-Motta has the potential to be good, but it certainly isn't as good as many of Italy's previous defences.
