you mentioned the wages we pay our players ... and thus i am pretty sure that molinaro does earn exactly what we owe him ... some salary that is probably half of what zambrotta or another decent full back earned ... he is not good, but it is not like we're spending super high wages on him...
if the club think we need a reinforcement there, then they can buy one, because molinaros wage wont hurt so much as if we can not afford to bench him.

Of course they are not! There is a huge gap of class between them...
All i am saying is, that some ppl just see Molinaro with empathy, like he is doing us a favor and playing for free. Like he is making a sacrifice for our team, because he "tries hard", when other champions seem less...determined at times .
IMO, he should pay Juve, for having the chances, a player of his class has!
It is his duty and a great honor, of having the chance to be a regular starter, in such a prestigious club!
Since he has no skills and tactical awareness, it is only normal to contribute, with the only way he can,
(meaning running up and down without any purpose).
He is only paid to do so and probably the only reason, CR keeps him,
he is not doing us any favors, thats the least he should do!
He is getting paid enough for this, enough to keep him running
and the motivation of playing, as a starter, in team, he wasnt supposed to play at all,
should really boost his confidence, he should try even harder and daily thank God, (and CR at nights) for giving him this chance, some much better players, never had!!
Cron...
Molinaro is probably or surely not Juve's material but there's no way he can be compared to Chimenti.
Chimenti doesn't even try at times to save a ball. It feels like he's wearing the jersey just to waste his time. Molinaro on the other hand can look like a joke several times morning till noon but at least you see him performing once or twice in each of his 5matches.
I think Molinaro is a bit more respected than Chimenti, a bit. Can be more if he works on his fucked up passes though.

I rarely ever bashed a Juve player, like i did with them.
This post mentioned to provide some arguments and reveal my real purpose, for the ones who care and dont already know.
Chimenti would be a much better keeper, if he had the chance to play as a regular for more years and Moli, would be much more appreciated in a lesser team.
BUT, that doesnt change the fact, that we cant afford to use them atm.
Our defense, as a whole is very weak and we need to do better than that.
We cannot afford having a 2nd choice keeper (referring to his first spell, he is no longer a threat) , like Chimenti and a starter like Molinaro, now.
Both of these players, for one reason, or another just doesnt cut it in.
Molinaro was top-class against roma .. he was fast, passes the ball nicely, his crosses was pretty good, defended solidly .. why can't he play like this in every match? the guy just lacks self-confidence which shouldn't be a problem at this time considering the number of matches he played for us since last season ..
Now, I wish he can gain some confidence after our respected management signed a new contract with him .. he must .. otherwise, i can see him being sold at the end of the season ..

he has gain confidence and exp, he is CR's favorite player!
The presence of DC, forced him to concentrate and try to do better!
But again, his very very limited basic football skills and the lack of tactical awareness holds him back!
No matter who how much he tries, he will never become any better than a certain level. He will never become a classy player, its not his fault, its just the way it is...
He may become a nearly useful player, in 6years fron now, but can we wait for that??
And this is why i detected him as a threat from his first days here.
We own his contract, he is cheap, he is young, he is Italian, he plays in a position, where the rest of our players, can minimize the damage he provokes.
These are reasons, good enough, for our managers, to tolerate an incompetent player and delay further investments, as much, as possible!
Therefore, i saw it coming, our managers want to minimize the investments.
They want an Italian core, they dont want to pay high salaries to less fancy but efficient players, who will no create spectacle and bring more fans (and income) to the stadium. They said it clearly, that they favor spectacle over results.
Thats why we buy big names upfront and ended up with this defense.
This is our new turn, our new philosophy...
We are applying Real Madrid strategies, without their resources and in a championship, were the defense and tactics have the first word, of winning the league!
Thankfully, our age-ing champions, have been proven enough to make the difference and balance the situation, adding some extra quality, to compensate the lack of quality, our teams suffers, in the back, because of starters like Molinaro.
But how much is this going to last???
The lack of some serious investment and our very limited managerial skills,
are slowly but surely, pushing us down. When the last of our champions will retire,
our current toleration of starters like Molinaro, will come back and bite us.
A team full of squad players, without any more champions to lead them...
This decision will affect our future, but it also affects our present!
We are losing, points, matches, titles today, because we didnt invest to a better material.

If we wont fix the problem now, it will be almost impossible to throw in 500mil,
sell all of our players and buy a whole squad of quality players tomorrow.
We were supposed to add a few quality players, one at a time and build a quality team, like the old times!
Tomorrow without our champions to compensate and make the difference, what are we going to do?
We wont be able to keep our current position and slowly become an average table team.
Each and every move we have done, post calciopoli, points at this way...
We are not re-building the old Juve, we are just wasting time...
Our owners only care for their income. Not our future!
However, we, the fans, the keepers of faith, the dreamers, the loyalists, the protectors of our heritage, we ought to demand for more!!
We can be the leverage!
We must not let this happen, we suffered enough, we must not tolerate this!
We have invested enough time, space and patience to the likes of Molinaro, Chimenti, Stendardo and Knezevic.
Having rid of the damned/cursed flat 4-4-2, (at least temporary)
our greatest weakness atm, is our defense.
A small sacrifice of 5-15mil would greatly enhance our team. But this is the last thing, our managers think of!
With a better defense, maybe we could have avoided small mistakes here and there,
maybe we couldnt have conceded silly goals, like the one Muntari scored.
Our chances for a title would seriously increase.
We are wasting years, when we can easily act now and take advantage of our nearly retired champions, to form a quality squad!
Molinaro is not our only fault, but we must start from somewhere and upgrading/replacing our weakling, is the first step!
