True, but we are not that Juve anymore, remember our owner then?
Just look at our managers now, they cant pull this off...
Our financial status and market influence is severally damaged, Roma wasnt that powerful as it is today and that player is hardcore Roma fan, living his dream...
I don't know really if he's such a die hard roma fan. He may be, but in that case he'd have made a clear statement to the press, just as did de rossi. Up until now, there's nothing he denied or approved. And speaking of powerful roma... they have debts of 180mio euros, they have a low-ass salary cap which will leed them into a disaster sooner or later, they have failed to agree to that soros-deal and they have spalletti who prefers other players in front of aquilani (for the moment at least). So, there might be a chance. We can offer nearly double as much salary as roma (i think they have a salary cap of < 2 mio), we can guarantee
some financial securities. We can guarantee a definately BETTER squad than last season's... those are things which
could be important for a young player and which roma can't necessarily bring up.
Let's just wait and see what aquilani will say. If he is that romanista we are all expecting; hand's off and xabi here we come. If there is the slightest possibility of him wanting to come to us; get him! ASAP! i'd even be willing to sacrifice iaquinta for him (not necessarily because aquilani is the better player, but because we need a midfielder more than a forward)
