He's probably coming as a vice-Mirko. We really lacked a player who can give Vucinic a rest and provide that link between midfield and attack. Giovinco proved that he can't do that specific job.
Or maybe we'll sell Vucinic and replace him with a superior AM/SS. I doubt that, though.

I like Diamanti, I think he's a good player, and I can see why we went for him. But he's not the sort of player I would look at signing, personally. We need to think a bit longer term, Diamanti has 2-4 years and no sell-on value out of Juventus.

He does have more quality than the typical provincial players we sign, he would look to be more than a sit-on-the-bench squad player.

@those who are ok with this

Dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance, to come back here as young men and tell marotten that he may steal our money but he will never steal our future!

That he has no sell-on value is an important argument, but not as important when you are a title-winning top club, like we are at present. The factor that should weigh the most right now is getting in the right players to ensure that the winning cycle continues. The rather humble transfer-fee and wages it would take to bring him here would - at a top club who wins trophies domestically and get a bunch of CL-money - be regained by the income generated by continued success.

For smaller, less successful clubs, the sell-on value argument is much more important.

If we brought him to play him as an SS or stick to 3-5-1-1, then it's a huge mistake.
I can't think on any other thing. Don't really see him as a regista at all, could play behind one or two CF, as a SS or as a LW. Assuming that Higuaín it's comming then could turn out to be a good thing looking forward to some variety in formations like 4-3-3, 4-3-1-2, 3-4-1-2, etc.
