By the time he retires, he'll have been with us for 8 seasons: definitely legend material.

he could retire today and be a legend, class, consistency, such an underrated player, could go another year without a doubt

 

[zizinho]

If he stays then why do we want to keep Howedes? They havee the same role, backup CB/RB and we only need one such player

 

[Bianconero81]

We shouldn't keep Howedes, especially if he gets something like 10 games this season.

Benatia, Chiellini, Caldara, Barza, and Rugani is more than sufficient, unless we are planning on selling Rugani for 40+ million

If Barzagli is gonna be 4th+ choice then I'm fine with him renewing a year. That far down the pecking order will serve him well with limited game time at his age. He will be fresh and ready when needed.

OK I think this should be his last extension and he will retire in 2019. If it's possible to be legend in 6 years, Andrea is. (bonucci is also)

Platini became a legend in 5...........

 

[BayernFan]

I had the impression he would retire in the summer? Still a class CB though no doubt

 

[Bianconero81]

It's not only about years of servitude, but also impact. Iaquinta was an epic leech-fuck for 6 seasons, but he's no legend.

A littlr of both
Pogba was great but left after a few years no legend

 

[Juvellino]

I think we will extend Barzagli and wait and see if Howedes returns to form. If he doesn't he won't return.

Barzagli definitely a legend btw.

fun fact: did u know manzukic and barzagli played together before coming to juve at wolfsburg.

Bonucci is no legend.

Do you consider Ravanelli and Vialli club legends? 4 years here each. Won the club it's first scudetto in like 10 years. Won a UEFA Cup and a CL as well. Both played huge parts in that scudetto, the UEFA Cup and the CL. Ravanelli also scored like 20 goals in 32 European Games while at Juventus.

I'd say yes to both regardless of the short spells here.

 

[Juvellino]

Not sure if Ravanelli or Vialli are legends. But Iaquinta? Absolutely.

Definitely. They guided us to a CL title, so that seals it in my book.

Pogba is definitely not a legend.

 

[Mr Chocolate]

I don't think anyone has even considered Pogba a legend, not even close

 

[DutchJuventino]

The term 'legend' is subjective and really vague. We all say players like Alessandro Del Piero, Scirea and Buffon are Juve legends, but the people who stayed shorter or played for several clubs aren't for everyone legends.

For me Barzagli is a legend, but I think for everyone he is at least a player who made part of our history, is loved and will not be forgotten after 8 years of Juve. Grande Barza!

 

[edgardavids2608]

I think Juve being their prime team is key and of course the level they played and for how long.

 

[Nedved96]

Barzagli, Chiellini, Marchisio and Lichtsteiner will all be remembered as Juventus legends.

 

[Akshen]

For me club legend is someone who was part of a winning team and spent majority of his prime at club, having good reliationship with club and fans, also after leaving the club.
For example Zidane is not a Juve legend for me, because he had his best times at Real and he is Madrids legend for me.
Bonucci is also not a legend because he left Juve at his prime and to (at least thats what people thought when he was leaving) direct rival.

Barza, Chiello, Marchisio, Licht are definitely legends.
Pjanic will be a Juve legend too if he stays for another two years and plays like he does now.
