yeah I'm quite a Insua fan as well, so is @X since we both have a thing for Boca Jrs shame the Juve scouts are useless :sergio:
I've got a thing for River, so at times I have a propensity to overrate prospects coming out of that club. The player I wish we had signed most from them was Ocampos. He's going to be a world-beater one day, or so goes my opinion.

But Insua would be great at LB here if we do switch to a back 4. Young, talented, and with the right team and coach, he could definitely take the next step towards becoming a star.

yeah i really liked Ocampos when he was at River, shame he moved to the wrong club in monaco.

I'd be gutted if a team like west ham signs insua, he could do so much better than them

News in France says Ocampos might be moving. Apparently Marseille is interested in him as part of their planned squad overhaul. We should make a low bid, as I'd bet he'd be reasonably priced, and we need wingers. Probably around 10m, which for a player with his potential upside is nothing.

All Argentina front 3! Ha. Awesome. An old man in the centre with a kid on either side. Tevez will keep 'em in line.

Too many Argies, bound to choke when we need 'em
Dude, Omar Sivori was amazing for us!

And Trez was basically Argentine, having growing up in Buenos Aires, and playing his entire youth career at Platense.

Word on the street is that we might be pursuing Balanta, since Allegri wants someone who can play both CB and LB. Would love it if we got him.
