How can u pretend to know what a player is worth?
We're not pretending to know what he's worth, we're saying that since his reputation is good in world football, we'll probably get such a high price for him that it'll definitely be worth more than what he can contribute to us anymore.

It's not about recent performances, it's about innate potentiel
Innate potential? And how much of that has DP shown ever since his injury crisis'? He's not exactly young anymore, and he's had plenty of seasons to regain the form that made him one of the greatest prospects in world football, but quite frankly I think Juve fans all over the world are sick and tired of being disappointed by his sluggish performances year after year.

otherwise all those one-shot players such as mutu or denilson would be worth billions
Mutu isn't one-shot, he's total class and he was a quality player even at Verona. To judge him based on his performances at Chelsea is like saying that the whole Inter squad is crap. It's not his fault that he hardly ever gets played.

It's true performances are the heart of the game, but one shouldn't give'em too much importance when it comes to long term prospects as the DP of next season will probably be very different from the one ur now criticizing. And u'll all sing his praises!!
Del Piero is
not a long-term prospect, he's a man who desperately needs to raise his game if he's to be remembered as a true great in the next few decades.
How can you say that one shouldn't give performances too much importance!? We can't sit there and watch him lose possession and be ineffective and just laugh it off, saying for the umpteenth time "Oh, he was a good player once. Maybe he can do it again".
