Edu has Juventus option (5 Viewers)

[Desmond]

Edu would be a waste of time and money.He's not a significant enough upgrade and he's not even that well proven against EPL opposition.

I'm not so sure we should get him,even on a free.

I don't think Valencia is stupid enough to trade Aimar for Edu, especially since they already have the super-duo Baraja and Albelda.

If you dint know Aimar and Valencia are not happy with each other and they have been chasing edu for some time now...Maybe Edu and some cash will bring us a player from Valencia.

if valencia want edu, why wouldnt them sign him on their own ?

Edu came on as a sub for Arsenal today in their win against West Brom, scoring a goal in injury time. He was given a role on the left flank by Wenger and did not look all that bad, linking up nicely and making some good passes around the pitch. He certainly looks like a good player in the EPL, however question still remains would he fit the Serie A and will his injury problems persist..

Looks like we made contact with Edu.

There are more stories in Italy on Friday which suggest that Juventus are keen on signing Arsenal midfielder Edu.

The South American is a free agent in the summer and that has interested transfer guru Luciano Moggi.

The director general is always on the lookout for Bosman players and Edu’s quality makes him especially attractive.

Inter and Valencia have also been associated but the Brazilian, 28, seems to be in favour of a Turin switch.

"Juventus are a great side and I’m happy to be of interest to them," the central midfielder is quoted as saying.

"I have already spoken to (international teammate) Emerson about it but I’d prefer to keep that conversation private.

"I am certain that I won’t be playing in England next season and I want to continue my career in Europe."

Whispers suggest that Edu would like a contract worth just under £2m a season but Juve are not ready to offer more than £1.4m.

The Bianconeri are also expected to sign Bayern Munich stopper Robert Kovac on a free at the end of the season.

To me, both Edu and Kovac are useless.
That Bayern has lost their CL clash, you can point your finger to Kovac. The poor guy didn't won any air battles with Drogba

edu is the last resort imo...he imo is a link passing player...not much more.

 

[A_LAcki]

They will both give us a lot more depth. Romano, you have seen Kovac in CL but I doubt you follow Bundesliga. He is a great sub for Thuram and Canna. Edu IMO has very good passing skills and could help us to keep possesion of the ball.

..

Edu is expensive for free.

 

[baggio]

I wouldnt mind Edu on the bench. Especially considering we'd be getting him for free.

Edu is good but is he defensive or offensive midfielder

I always thought he was offensive,but here on the forums everybody saying he is defensive.

 

[Mr. Gol]

He's a two way midfielder really. He can tackle but also pass the ball well and come forward.

 

[bianconero]

Surely we can find someone just as good and a little bit older. After all we have to plan for the future too.

 

[Geof]

younger you mean?

 

[bianconero]

Yes. I was being, sadly, sarcastic to the general policy we

On a free he'd be an excellent buy, only downside to his game is that he tends to be a little reckless. He really plays frantic epl-style and runs forward at every chance, neglecting the defence, even when his own defence is in little numbers.

Yeah, but that's still better than blasi playing world-class balls... to the opposing team! I really don't like Blasi.. Edu would be a welcome replacement for me..
