  1. riquelme-tiago swap deal?

    Talk about a guy who's reputation was ruined by a mistake in what ended up being a nothing game. In all the games I've seen with Zaccardo in Palermo, he's a very solid player. Probably not what Juventus needs right now, but still a good player, and only 25.
  2. riquelme-tiago swap deal?
