Pereyra will never be a starter material for juve.. people here overrate da shit out of him.
Im not his biggest fan either, but he has a lot of energy and can add something new to that role.

I think he shouldn't play too close to the other teams goal. Not decisive enough in that area.

All I really want to know after all this is over is, is it because of Marotta or did Vidal go to his office and requested to leave like Marotta stated just after the season ended "Only way we would sell our key players is if they walk into the office and ask to leave". Don't know if he said that as a cover up for safety, so they'll be no riots against him or what.

Can Pereyra play in Vidal's role, albeit a little differently. But without Pirlo, we can afford it maybe.


Pereyra Marchisio Pogba
New ten

OR get one or two good wingers. We should seriously consider playing a different style without Pirlo and Vidal, the engines of the team the last years.

The thing with Pereyra is that if our management want an AM why they signed permanently Pereyra?Yes he is good and can play in the middle but why to expand the costs?14 mil for him and at least 35 for AM?

Juve store should give refunds to anyone who bought a Vidal jersey for this season. I feel bad for the people that did but this is why always wait till september to buy the new kits if u want to put a name on one.

Very disappointed if this goes through.

Not only is he a crucial player but the quoted cost is way below his value when you see other players on the market.

Why waste a year nursing him back to form only to sell him at the end of it at a lower price?

I'm also not convinced our centre midfield is complete if he goes. Khedira is a big risk and shouldn't be seen as an automatic replacement for Pirlo or Vidal. If we were selling Vidal I would have liked to have seen us going for Kondogbia or Nainggolan.

Getting Cuadrado now that we sold Vidal would be quite depressing, to say the least.

There's no way Vidal is a Juventus legend. It takes more than being a good player to be a legend at a club like Juventus. A Juventus legend doesn't shit the bed like he did in the CL final. A Juventus legend doesn't drink drive. He's a very good player, but mentally fragile. He gave a few years good service to Juve and now it's time for all sides to move on. If Juve sign a real number 10 as his replacement, I think the team will have been improved.

When I think back on Pirlo's career I mainly remember 2006 and his AC Milan years. Only this Tumblr fanboy culture that has developed around him in recent years leads people to think he is primarily associated with Juventus. His Juventus era was an epilogue to his career.

Honestly if we get a great Lb move Asamoah to cm and buy an AM I will be ok with him leaving but otherwise im pissed. Khedira will fullfill th box to box role great but not sure what we are going to use this money for. Keep oinvesting and making us more complete and better and im fine.

Sorry Zach, but I disagree with this. Zidane's last 3 seasons with Juve were (below) average and some of his seasons with Real could actually be considered the best in his career.
I agree. I wasn't even that mad about Zidane leaving back then. I was really frustrated by his amazing games for France while his Juventus games were subpar.
