Oh man, Juve signing Diego, i love the idea of a Diego - Giovinco link up. Suddenly the midfield would just be the the most promising one in Europe with the potential to be great for a long, long time to come.
"Tuttosport claims Giovinco will be put up for a loan move in January if Werder Bremen star Diego arrives.

The 'Formica Atomica' will be allowed to find himself another club and move there until the end of the season if the Brazilian midfielder lands in Turin."

this rumor is pure bull. Ranieri doesn't even let a similar player to Diego in Gio play as a attacking midfielder, and Gio can even play as a winger too, yet he is still benched because of Ranieri's flat 442. Yet apparently we want to get Diego so Ranieri can put him on the bench.

Please don't make me laugh.

no no no.

what I meant was what's the purpose of getting an attacking midfielder, when we have a very talented one already, who can also play as a left winger in a 442, yet is seeing so little playing time because of our coach's tactics.

So in all it's almost like getting another player to warm the bench.

and what do you mean by all concerned parties? I'm just proving how the rumor is false by pointing out my point.

Yes the rumour is false.

And now I understand what you said but I think that Diego can do a lot more than Giovinco so if he come he won't be sitting on the bench.

Diego is definitely the better player, at least for now. But I just don't see a place for him here until Ranieri is gone and our defense is fixed first.

a RB and CB are needed so we could stop playing with the 2 defensive midfielders strategy.

    Zapata could be a possibility this January right? Yeah he was injured all year and still is I think but Udinese are playing real well without him and Felipe so it might not be that hard getting him. The good thing is that he could be available for the CL.

    Why are we still underrating leggrotalie? If you ask me he has been playing better than chiellini. We don't need a cb at the moment, we need fullbacks.

    Bah, we won't buy a quality CB in January. Our main Cbs Chiellini and especially Legrottaglie are great so far.
    We might get a 4th CB if one of Legro, Giorgio, Mellberg gets a serious injury (considering that Knezevic is also out) but we won't be getting a starter.

    Then again, we seem to buy players for those positions that work perfectly and we don't buy players for our weak spots, so one could never know what will we do.

    Agreed. Although I believe we are seriously after diego, our management want's to impress the fans and after 2 "bad" mercatos I think its about time they surprise us. Diego would help us tremendously and if you buy better full back, the idea of 2 defensive midfielders would certainly be tarnished.

    I'm thinking more about the future. We'll need a young CB because we're a bit old in that department(right side) so getting one of the best now that his value is lower then we should go for it. Andrade and Knezevic can get the boot any day for all I care. Next season you bring in Criscito and we're set.

    I dare say that we could use a top quality full back ahead of a CB. Preferably one who could play well on both flanks and who's not just solid, but rather one who offers a lot in attack too.

    Just look at players like Maicon, Evra and Clichy to see how much a great full back can do for the team.
