Alex - CB - Chelsea (20 Viewers)

[Klin]

He's 29.

He won't get that many more chances to get a decent move and a nice contract.

How many years has he left in his contract with Chelsea?

We should offer him more money than what's he's earning now, that's the way to go.

That would make him one of Juve's highest earners, I would think.

I don't think he's good enough to warrant that sort of wage/status.

Two.

I'd imagine Juve would need to give him a four year deal (by which time he'll be 33) to convince him to leave Chelsea.

 

[Osman]

Might be a chance for some to watch him for the first time.

How bizzare if thats true.

 

[IrishZebra]

We'll have to wait and see I guess. God knows how wrong I want to be proven on this.

If it's a loan that'll get him more playing time with the guarantee of a return to europe next season...

We have no other incentive, we can expect him to take paycut to join us.

Like I said, playing time and a relatively long contract.

And I'm not saying he should take a pay cut, I just don't think Juve can offer him more than he's on at Chelsea.

A four year deal wouldn't be bad at all.

[Tak!]

Why would Alex want to join us? Isn't he a regular?

 

[Salvatore]

It's likely he'll be a bench player when David Luiz is fit again.

 

[Juve Libnan]

Not too convinced with Alex..would rather have a young gun like Coates/Galeano instead

 

[JuveJay]

He suits playing teams like Stoke, monster. Not convinced about him and Chiellini together.

 

[IrishZebra]

Does Alex not 'play the ball' significantly more than Chiello?

Don't most defenders?

 

[IrishZebra]

Excluding Knezevic, yes.

 

[Juve_Kosova]

Folks saying Alex is not good enough have never seen him play....or are blind!

 

[Linebreak]

Don't most defenders?

I'd say so - Alex would rather remain for another 2 years paid higher on the bench at Chelsea than join the neo-Juve glory story on lower pay.

 

[Salvo]

He was a beast last game, he is the sort of defender you want if you have a team coming at you on the counter. He can play the ball rather well as well.

Exactly what Bonucci needs to improve. He had a really nice game. Tuttosport says we can't loan Alex and Galeano is the alternative. Vargas and Alex/Lugano are both relatively easy transfers. Marotta is going to get us Perotti and Galeano.
