Yup like Chester says, He preffered England because he is affraid for the rascism and the double marking but never said a bit thing about Juve or not want to come here. The Telegraaf said we got him, so does the other football gossip sites.

I will only be excited once i see it on the Juve page.

Did he actually said that he prefers the epl And that he is afraid of the rasicsm in Italy??? And that the serie a does not suite his style?? Or was he misquoted again???

I guess He really wanted to join an epl Team but out of options he will sign for us.... Tells you alot about this Player..... Gosh i really can not stand him... Hope He fails The Medical!

I am already excited
hate the hate he gets from dutchies for choosing italy :sergio:
SerieA has a bad name in Holland, the defensive football, the scandals from the last few years all didn't do much good to the reputation of the league.
If the rumour then appears that a Dutch player can also pick an English team over an Italian, it is normal that many Dutch people think the Dutch player made the wrong choice.
IF Elia performs well, this will change.

The articles state that his manager said Elia thinks this stuff, but for what you know, he was just trying to get an EPL club to make an offer so he can negotiate bigger deals with us, you don't know how people deal with stuff like this.
I am sure he'll give his all since he wants to keep his selection for the NT, especially with Affelay not playing and with Robben injured more of the season then fit, he knows that, if he plays, he'll be called up for the NT.

yes but everyone want him to go to england even the expert are saying how he needs to go to england asap
chester is 100% right only i think the image will never chance also not when he shines here.
their will always be stories about how he should go to england or spain.

Chester also the boerrigter in orange talks are already started so elia actually has a lot of competion for the winger spot in
dutch nt
that is why i think he will shine for us.

He's right about racism but shouldn't have made a comment about the EPL better suiting him.

Imo the guy has a lot of potential, its his character which needs to change. You're going to have to give 110% if you wear our black and white shirt

If he's worried about marking in Italy then he should train harder and become better until he can unlock Italian defenses. it will only make him a better player.

The real risk with Elia is his seemingly immature attitude and apparent lack of mental strength

Sneijder didn't want to go to Inter either, but changed his mind about Serie A after a few months in the country. And then he won everything he could win.

This will indeed be an advantage, with Buffon, DP, Marchisio, Pirlo, Chiellini we have leaders in the team that will definately won't be afraid to tell this young guy how it works if he doesn't behave. And technically, with DP, Vucinic and Quag, he can learn a lot here, I am positive about this deal.

I remember that, he wanted to move to England also but after he came to Italy he said how much he likes it here etc.

There's no way we'd agree with Hamburg if Elia did not want to come here.
