It kind of annoys me how quickly people change their minds , if you have an opinion , by all means , stick to it . If you had a valid reason for forming that opinion , you would have no reason to back down from it .

I never said "Fuck Secco" , and I never said "Forza Secco" because I know I would be eating my words either way so I prefer to stay neutral and only judge him untill the season is over . I hope others can act the same .
I'm not the kind who changes mind quickly just because of current results. Yes, I admit that I said "FUCK SECCO, RANIERI" before, because I felt that way when we lost against small teams. But recently I realize I am probably biased by media.

So I guess you got me wrong. Let me state clearly: Because most of us can't do things like sack Secco, or take Lippi to the coach bencd then at least, despite what biased news and biased words from Media, let's stay CALM and SUPPORT.

I prefer giving out a hand so that stupid Secco would better off than continuing saying Fuck this or Fuck that.

OK? :ultra:

Secco: "Juventus" will buy a maximum of two players



Sports director of "Juventus" Alessio Secco has told about the transfer policy of club, having noted, that the command does not require a plenty of beginners, and also has dispelled some hearings.

- Clear up. The problem to get in League of champions was put before a command in the beginning of a season?
- We wished to finish in the first four, however understood, how much difficult problem we put before a command.

- As after mass outflow of leading players has passed only two years …
- Then we were before the difficult choice, in fact very much many football players wished to leave a command.

- For certain has not done without mistakes, whether not so?
- Sale Mutu was a mistake, my mistake. It is necessary to have courage and honesty to recognize own misses.



It is necessary to have courage and honesty to recognize own misses.
- What has forced you to agree to sell Mutu?
- When we have received the offer concerning its sale, the club was in a delicate situation and risked even greater, rather than downturn in series B.

- How you managed to reconstruct a command which for one year has returned to the maximum battalion?
- To us send 8-9 players capable доукомплектовать a command, to make ensemble completed. And, it is a question of the people, differing strong-willed qualities.

- Whom, in particular, you mean?
- Football players whom without dependence from, whether they have begun a match in starting structure or on a bench spare, do not spoil an atmosphere in a command. Such players as Salihamidzic and Grygera, have brought the big contribution to our success.

- What can you tell about transfer Amauri?
- I have nothing to add. This player is interesting to us also we are ready to work above details of the agreement from "Palermo".
- We do not participate in auctions, I think, it should be clearly from the very beginning. Amauri is one of ours transfer the purposes as in League of champions "Juventus" four will be necessary pure attacking. But we on what do not insist. How much I know, at us the strongest pair forwards in league, or I am mistaken?

- Whether returning Giovinco is possible?
- It plays the important role in "Empoli", we waited for it from Giovinco. It on a correct way.

- Palladino almost it was not pleased after a goal in a gate of "Parma", and upon termination of a meeting has told about the discontent with a present role spare.
Is quite predicted and explainable reaction. It was correct in the statements. It is no wonder, that any football player wishes to play as much as possible. However Раньери was frank with it: to reach successes on a floor, it is necessary to work much, completely to give all the best on each training. Палладино has followed to its advice and now has received result. I always agree with our trainer that never nothing gives "Juventus" to anybody.


- You see Palladino alternative Nedved ?
- Pavel the fantastic player, but it is not eternal. All we hope, that it remains in a command for one season. In the meantime Palladino it will be typed experience and can become its worthy successor.

- What will tell about hypothetical exchange Iaquinta on Mancini?
- It is impossible, as this player us does not interest. We never discussed transfer Mancini and I have nothing to add in this occasion.
I hope, you do not consider me as madman.


- What is necessary for "Juventus" for successful performance in League of champions?
- To improve that good, that is already created. Any excesses, we shall make a maximum two-rub purchases. And, should tell, that we have already made one purchase. It – Sissoko which we generally planned to catch in the summer, upon termination of a season.

- Despite of the young age, you have agreed to hold so responsible post …

- To me of 38 years, at me two children - to son Filippo of 5 years, and the daughter of Sofia 2 years. I know, that such the responsibility. I am in "Juventus" 11 years and firstly performed the most draft work. I do not wish something to hide, as I am proud past.

- What was your first task in "Juventus"?
- I have made the official press release about Christian Veri's sale Madrid "Atletico".

One is Sissoko, second is Amauri?
Is this guy crazy? We need replacement for Nedved and Molinaro.
To buy a classy defender also wouldn't mind.
We'll get chopped and screwed in CL with just 2 signings...

i read an interesting idea today

someone said:
Seccos primary criteria for bringing in players is their love for the club and willingness to give everything for the bianconeri ... if this is true, it would explain, why we don't go for a crackwh*re like vdv or these spain-lovers like diego ...

i agree that the players should want a move to juve in the first place and not players who just want away from their team...

that is one story ...

the other story is that he is running his ass off for juve and kissed his shirt when playing one of his first matches for us ...

you can see the other extreme ... a player like tiago that just goes for a walk instead of trying to invent something ... walkin around like he does not really care if juve win or lose

Man Secco's first career start task in Juve is mucho bad omen. His first task was announcing our worst sale ever in recent times, selling Vieri to Atletico (Even worse then Henry's, because he was only here few months and was mainly just a good winger).

i said id judge all of them when the season is over. i think our comfortable 3rd place is a pretty good ending, although we are far from perfect this season. however i'd like to see the summer transfers. i honestly think an amauri acquisition is unnecessary if that happens, but we'll see what secco has up his sleeve. if he screws this summer transfer up, as his previous transfers didnt really have a big impact, i think he has to go.

Maybe because we have a couple of players returning from loan, but I don't consider that an excuse.
i want mostly every player to return from loan as good as these kids are they are not experienced and in CL and serie a experience is needed. not only that but we need quality in other positions. if we do only only buy 2 players they would have to be utmost quality. i am hoping we get 3 as more than that is highly unlikely, as 1 of those players is most likely going to be a striker.

Secco Defends Almiron & Tiago Signings

Much-maligned Juventus sporting director Alessio Secco has defended the signings of midfield flops Sergio Almiron and Tiago Mendes last summer.

Tiago & Almiron

Almiron and Tiago were signed from Empoli and Lyon for a combined €22m with the intention of being Juve’s first-choice centre midfield partnership.

However both have struggled dreadfully, with Almiron shipped off on loan to Monaco in January, and Tiago certain to be sold at the end of the season.

"When we bought them almost everyone claimed that we had made the right choice,” said Secco.

Almiron came from two excellent seasons at Empoli. And Tiago is a talented player who has been important.”

Amauri & Flamini

Secco then was asked about the possible arrival of Amauri and Matthieu Flamini this summer.

We will see [about Amauri]. It is possible,” he stated.

Flamini is a free agent, he is wanted by many clubs, including Juve, but it is not easy to get him.”

Giovinco, Marchisio, De Ceglie

Secco also confirmed that the on-loan Sebastiano Giovinco, Claudio Marchisio and Paolo De Ceglie would be returning to Juve next season.

There had been speculation that the transfer chief was trying to offload the trio to Palermo in exchange for Amauri.

Giovinco, Marchisio and De Ceglie will return yes. Davide Lanzafame, who is on-loan at Bari is playing very well, but we will send him for experience at a team in Serie A,” he concluded. :tup:
