I'd be more than happy if we'd be able to field something like this next season.

---------------Buffon
Vrsaljko Bonucci Chiellini Alex Sandro
-----Khedira Marchisio Pogba
----------------Oscar
-----------Dybala Mandzukic

Would be ok with Lichtsteiner at rb still tough and we definitely need to think about Khedira cover if Sturaro/Lemina/Asamoah don't impress enough in the coming months. Ideally I would love to have Sturaro in the starting lineup but he hasn't really improved as he should have this season with all the game time he has been getting. Hopefully he will start to offer something going forward soon enough defensively he has been solid can still improve on that also.
One does not simply bench our best defender...

I don't see Bonucci or Chiellini benched either and Barzagli was the one benched last season when we played four at the back. I absolutely love the player though and don't really matter to me which two we play as I trust them all.

is vrsaljko juve material anyway?
Yes imo but it's hard to say for sure before he has featured for us.

Lots of similarities with Lichtsteiner. Loves to run down that right flank all day long. It will be fun to see how he copes with Alex Sandro on friday.

It depends what's juve material. Licht sucks big time offensively this season, but he still our main RB. Sime is better in this division, but not by margin. So is he an upgrade – yep, is he good enough to be our main rb for years – I don't think so.

Btw, what do you guys think about play a risky game and take Fekir? Potentially he is one of the best AM's in the world. And his price would be affordable.

Incidentally, some peeps i know where discussing about a distant possibility that maybe Bayern would try to lure cristiano ronaldo out of Madrid.

Personally i think that Cristiano as a real madrid player is done..and he enjoyed a lot to work under ancelotti. He (carletto) could make him return to his best again in a real team like bayern. And to be honest... a front line of Robben,Lewa,Ronaldo would be fukin nuts.

Improbable, but who knows. I dont think Ronaldo would return to the EPL or anywhere else. He needs to go to a major team with pedigree...not only with money. ManU is a madhouse and he won everything there already, PSG...nah....City?...noup....Chelsea?..nah. Barcelona? no fukin way.

Bayern is the only team that makes some sense for him.
Wherever u hear discussing the possibility of Ronaldo to Bayern, its BS from the highest order :lol:

Bayern would not even think about buying him and I cannot imagine a more unrealitic transfer. If a bookie would offer a bet for Ronaldo not moving to Bayern, then I would bet every penny on it..its just laughable to think that.

Seems Bayern r close to agree a deal for Croatian kid Brekalo, who is playing LW. http://www.transfermarkt.de/josip-brekalo/profil/spieler/293169

vrsaljko hasn't convinced me so far. sandro is a classy player, licht was probably the best rb in the league when we bought him a couple of years ago, and i don't think vrsaljko is already in that league. of course i trust marotta and paratici on this one, too, but i'd rather pick fabinho or aurier if they were available.

fekir :tuttosport: i dunno shit about his injury, though. we don't want an other isla case when the guy never fully recovered.

Defenitely :tup: But I dont think Lyon are stupid enough to sell after long injury, they will sell Lacazette (tho not too good this season), and keep Fekir to make him dominate again and then consider to sell. Just total loss to sell after long injury.

Aurier and the likes of him shall inshallah never play for this Club.
Haha its truly bizzare people want him to become after proving what a total fukwit he is.

Do you watch Serie A?!
Vrsaljko is a very good
Is he good enough to play for Juve? - YES!
Is he good enough to be our main RB for years? - His Sassuolo displays suggest that he is but since he never played for a great team it would be premature to say he can definitely be this guy!
Assuming on his Sassuolo displays alone - yes but as I said its too early to know! He is playing at RB and sometimes it seems to me like he is a playmaker in the RB position for them which is a very positive sign!
I`d bet on him!

FI talking about Sensi as he is going to be the next big thing anyone know anything about him part for youtubes?

did we ever sign players based on their intellectual background?

sure aurier is a douche, but also a great player. i'd take a gamble on him.

.

He is a good player not a great one. And its not about being stupid in general or not (tho we clearly avoid troublesome type of players with our discplinary routines). But his kind of stupidity is the kind that directly effects sense of team and unit, he litterally insulted his coach and teammates in severe way and isnt playing because of it. Why would that make him desireable for a club like us?

Gotze will benefit from Ancelotti's arrival IMO. No point in discussing him.
I'd be happy if Götze made it with us, but the truth is the spot he would have to contend for is Müller's, and "Müller always plays". I think we just don't have room for Götze. If he goes I hope he does to a decent team, like Juve or maybe Liverpool, but not to one of the ugly EPL teams.

If we sign Aurier I will personally walk to Turin and beat the living hell out of that prick. Don't want him anywhere near our great team.

I think we know to keep clear of those cases so I'd say yes we take the intellectual background to consideration when making signings.

ok, let's forget aurier.

what about fabinho vs vrsaljko?
Prefer Fabinho, total tower of a player, huge for a fullback and has kind of Yaya Toure kinda runs thats hard to stop. More versatile too since he can play DM quite well (and adept with the ball due to experience in midfield, for a regular fullback). Actually makes sense to have him our squad since he can do 3 roles even if at best in RB. Would be more balanced choice since he isnt that hyper attacking kind.
