Hey... I think we should go for Adriano. There are just a few decent LWB in the world, and Adriano is one of them. He's 28 - should have at least 3 more seasons ahead.

Even Inter is thinking about this guy... so he should be affordable. Now that Barcelona got Jordi Alba this guy will be on the market and he shouldn't be very expensive.

For something between 7/10M we can land him, paying in installments....

Come on Marotta!

You don't get it.. We are looking for a LB. We are NOT looking for another LWB. I believe we'll aim to play a straight Conte-4-3-3 next season, but even if we don't we are still going to change between the 4-3-3 and 3-5-2. In any possible case we need a LB like we have Lichsteiner for RB. A LB is different from a LWB in his duties to track back and defend. A LB is good at defending and tracking a little forward while a LWB is almost a wide midfielder / defensive winger who you don't expect to defend that much since you have three central defenders to do just that. We have Paolo De Ceglie who many here, apparently, accepts for LWB and so, in that case, we need a fullback in the left - a LB. Kolarov is that. Adriano is a LWB. Solid LBs are rare these days and most top teams play with wingbacks, not fullbacks..

    Juve want Tevez and Kolarov
    By Football Italia staff


    Juventus are reportedly setting their sights on Manchester City duo Carlos Tevez and Aleksandar Kolarov.

    The Bianconeri are eager to improve their squad over the summer to become more competitive in Europe after a second consecutive Scudetto.

    According to Sport Mediaset, their first target for 'top player’ in attack is now Tevez, surpassing Gonzalo Higuain of Real Madrid and Fiorentina’s Stevan Jovetic.

    This is because his contract expires next summer and he could be available at a fairly small price-tag.

    It is certainly not the first time that Tevez has been linked with a move to Italy, though until now he has always patched up his differences with Manchester City.

    Juve are also thought to be tracking one of his teammates at Eastlands, as Kolarov would be a valid option for the left wing.

    The Corriere dello Sport claims Kolarov has already told City directors he is unhappy and would like a move away from the club.

    The Serbian is no stranger to Serie A, having arrived in Manchester from Lazio, and Juventus hope to take him for around €10m.
