As i said in the other thread, i don't want amauri, because no matter what the final price is, he will be too expensive. He is decent, but not better than iqauinta (in high form)
If we really want another striker, why not get saviola then. He's a year younger than amauri, he'll cost 5mio or so, and he'll be a fine sub. I heard he's on the transfermarket in summer...

No,Amuari is not overrated(But his price is a bit higher though) and he will prove you all wrong if some big clubs buys him.
Saviola isn`t uderrated.He can`t keep up with a good form.His form always falls down and he`s very weak psihicaly.
Also,there`s no way Amauri can compare with Iaquinta.He`s way better.
I have same opinion as I have for Ranieri ( I don`t mean I hate him)...he`s not for a big club.

Well, one could probably get both Huntelaar and Saviola for the same price as Amauri. Saviola and Huntelaar would both probably be more understanding that they would start out fourth and fifth respectively on the pecking order than Amauri would.
I don't think Amauri is a sufficient upgrade on Trezeguet, Iaquinta or Del Piero for that price tag, I should make that clear. Yes, Del Piero is getting older, but he's still going to be capable of starting at least half the games. Iaquinta and Trezeguet are workhorses. Any new forwards should be eventual replacements for Trez and DP. I don't think Amauri really fits that, seeing as he's roughly the same age as Iaquinta and only two and a half years younger than Trezeguet without the same killer skills. Where Huntelaar is 24 and Gomez is 22. Those are the types we should be spending big on.
I also don't see 25 million sitting on the bench, and with both Del Piero and Iaquinta commanding field time with their efforts, and Trezeguet being such a requirement... Amauri might upset the mix more than a young guy like Huntelaar would, or a guy who's starting to come to grips with the fact that he's not elite, like Saviola.
Saviola is not a top striker, that's for sure... but he's solid, solid depth.
I'd rather Trezeguet, Iaquinta, Del Piero, Huntelaar, Saviola being my depth for roughly the same price as Trezeguet, Del Piero, Amauri, Iaquinta (assuming Palladino goes).

I have just read the exact same thing!
I agree with Moggi Amauri is a good player but not a world class player
He plays more in the DP position than Trez but anyway DP is better than him in his position and Trez is better than him in his position
and by the way Iaquinta is really impressing me and I think Amauri is not better than Iaquinta eigther
but you know who is better than the 3 of them..... The mighty AGUERO!!!

Bid For Amauri – Agent Urges Roma
The agent of Palermo star Amauri has again urged Roma to make an offer for his client.
The Brazilian is regarded as one of the top strikers in Serie A, and will leave Palermo for a big club in the summer. Juventus are currently seen as the clear favourites to sign the 27-year-old.
However Amauri’s agent Mariano Grimaldi has come out in the past and said that his client would like to move to Roma, as he enjoyed his stay there last year while recovering from a serious injury.
"Amauri was happy in Rome,” Grimaldi again told Tutto Mercato Web.
“He met many friends, was in love with Roma and their style of game. There is every chance that he could go to Roma.”
Grimaldi believes that Amauri’s style of play would fit in nicely with that of Roma coach Luciano Spalletti.
"Certainly the game of Luciano Spalletti suits the player,” he said.
“Amauri can be the second striker. Let us not forget that at Chievo he scored 13 goals as the second striker.
“Not only look at the last two seasons in which Amauri played as the first striker. He could combine very well with Francesco Totti."
