I watched him play against Newcastle last week, he's amazing! He would be the perfect foil to Del piero...

Drogba has everything in his locker. He has pace, strength, skill, technique, goalscoring ability...not sure how good he is on his head though.

This should be our main purchase for attack in the summer. I reckon Marseille would be eager to cash in on him. Maybe if we get Deshamps, he will get Drogba for us.

my Juve for next season:

Buffon

Bonera Thuram Ferrari Zambrotta

Camoranesi Tacchinardi Perrotta Rothen

Drogba Del Piero


Am I being unrealistic?

Why would we need him if brought in Gilardino?

He does score in France but I never liked him. His inconsistency was crealy shown in the CL this year. He scored 2 or 3 in the first two games and then he stopped...

And I've had him in my UEFA Fantasy team up until they were knocked out! So it's personal between me and him!

The fact that he is French worries me though :)

    The big word there is IF

    but saying that I think Drogba is better than Gilardinho....

    Drogba has scored loads...in the CL, Uefa cup, French League

    and Drogba is NOT French, he's from the Ivory Coast..

    But he is a French citizen, isn't he?

    So what, Zidane is from Algeria...

    I don't think Gilardinho(he comes deep) would be the perfect foil to Del piero though!!

    Drogba would be...

    France team=Africa, France just take the credit!

    Haha and i can not imagine Drogba scoring 19 goals in Serie A, he is simply not good enough for that, so i vote Gilardino too ;)

    We will regret not getting Drogba, if we don't get him now!! Did u not see him play against Inter and Newcastle in Europe?
    I bet someone like Arsenal end up signing him and he becomes the next Henry!

    How do we know GILARDINHO IS NOT GONNA BE A ONE SEASON WONDER?

    Gilardino hasnt only been good this year, its only when Mutu and Adriano left that he captured the most attention. And a player like Gilardino doesnt just loose his talent suddently, at least not if he is handled right by a good coach as Prandelli.

    Has there been any rumors linking him to Juventus? Other than the fact that someone went to France to spy on Drogba?
    yes they were..and there are rumours linking him with milan and inter.

    So u two obviously don't like him.... u obviously haven't seen him play much..
    True, I don't watch French leage games.

    I've seen him play in the Champions League.

    I've seen Gilardino play since Adriano's departure, so I have something to compare :)

    But again, opinions about players are very personal and vary.
