I just fail to see the comparison here. Iaq was perpetually injured. He didn't play for us, for what 3 seasons in a row, on much higher wages than Quag. Iaq was the one who had retired mentally, that's also another reason why he didn't get many offers either. Quag agreed to move to Lazio last mercato window, we blocked the move then. Thats not how you treat an unwanted player. And if he is so unwanted, i wonder why he has '200' minutes more than Gio, and has even featured ahead of Vucinic at times. He even agreed a move this window, we didn't agree a fee. He offered to move to Samp, and they couldn't afford our transfer fee. He didn't want to move abroad, which is where most of the offers came, and so many offers wouldn't have come for a player that showed nothing on the pitch. Don't see why he's not within his right, to prefer staying in Italy than moving abroad. I think we are being a bit unfair in this case. But whatever.
did iaquinta do anything wrong, technically?

I understand your point. I believe the likes Valencia and EPL teams that were interested would have gone close to his wage, albeit a loan move. If he didn't have these offers then I wouldn't have anything against him for earning money by sitting on the bench.

When a time comes that you know your not needed by the club, and knowing others want you, then its a question of their morals. Not matter how you try to defend them, the likes of him are leeches.
:lol: I love the high moral ground some people take. The contradiction is funny, cos first you say there are teams who would match the wage, then you say, he's a leech and has no morals. Lol, who are you or who am I to question Quag for wanting to earn the wages he's entitled to? He's somebody who has earned the right to be in that position and he's earning more than you or I perhaps will over the course of this lifetime, whether at Juve or elsewhere. So I just don't see what gives you the right to question his morals, when faced with a similar situation, you too would've perhaps made the same choices. Also, of he wasn't needed or wanted, the club wouldn't have held on to their price tag. They would've cut their losses and let him go.

Not at all. The point here though, is that they're not similar cases. Quag has contributed more, and has given it his all. He is nowhere close to the wage Iaquinta was on, and had options to earn that wage or close to it in another league, but it seems his preference is to stay in Italy. I just don't see the need to insult him or call him a leech, coz quite frankly, it's not to the deterrent of the team, nor is it blocking an incoming transfer. Even if one is not a fan of the player, I think all of this is a bit uncalled for.

Baggio would defend Quagliarella even if he somehow was able to become dictator of the world. He'd be like a mixture of Hitler and King Ferdinand. If you don't have an ass chin, you have to have surgery to obtain one or otherwise you'll be taken to the concentration camps, burned into ashes and turned into ass-chin soap.

But hey, it's not such a big deal guys. Just have surgery to get an ass-chin. There's "technically" nothing wrong with it. We don't want il duce Quagliarella to be inconvenienced. Just shut up, get the ass-chin and get fucked in it.

Yes, him receiving similar wages, yet rejecting them, because he likes to earn from the bench instead of sweating for another team, when clearly he's not wanted by his current club, makes him a person with sh!tty morals.

Get off your Quag fetish already, its getting ridiculous. Its almost like your brainwashed to defend him no matter what.

i have nothing against quag, but you cant sit there and tell me it's ok for a top competitive player to not only be ok with the bench but also be unwanted by coach and club. I dont insult our players, but i do lose respect. Why would anyone train knowing fully they wont contribute? by definition that is a leech. I really do wonder how much more money hes making to do absolutely nothing, instead of playing at high level.

Then perhaps don't sign shitty players and give them massive contracts.

Quag is doing nothing wrong. We gave him the contract, he's seeing it out.

Nothing wrong with that!

If he doesn't want to sweat for another team, then why did he accept the move to Lazio last mercato and this one too? If he's not wanted by our team, why does he have more minute ps than Gio, and why did we block his move to Lazio last mercato? isn't there the slightest chance that he wants a bit more stability and has personal reasons and would prefer to stay in Italy, than move to fucking Cardiff, Arsenal, Villa or Valencia? No of course there isn't. Because youve taken the moral high road, and you can't see it from up there.

You don't have to be a fan of the player. But please hold on to a little bit of objectivity before deriding someone when you would've done pretty much the same thing in his place. This doesn't hold true just for Quag. But Gio, Vucinic and anyone else we choose to sell.

We got lucky by selling Matri for decent sum. Quag will most probably eventually leave for nothing next season or year after. There is still some hope to make a decent money out of giovinco.

Juve should limit the wages of their italian players, unless they're WC, so they could sell them easily since most of them dont like to leave Italy.

You have it all wrong bro. You don't have to be a fan, but I think some of the haters here are deriding him in a pretty unfair manner, and I'm just trying to reason wiht that.

We don't have to agree, but I genuinely don't like it when a player of the team is insulted despite not having done much wrong here. Scroll through the last couple of pages to understand my stance.

This is not what I'm telling you. I'm saying that it seems that he'd be happier to stay in Italy and it didnt work out for him in this mercato window as most of the offers came from overseas. It did work out last window, and we blocked the move. So where is the question of him not being wanted? And even if that's the case, why are we all jumping the gun, when essentially, the player in question has bought himself 6 more months to evaluate his future, rather than make a mid season move most likely on a loan that would've left him unsettled in the long run, if the loaning team didn't buy. Is Vucinic a leech too by this logic? And he oerhaps has more reason to be a leech coz hes not even got his head straight after the collapsed move to inter. Of course not. Both their contracts expires in 2015-16? If theyre still here, let's all judge him and Quag assuming that he especislly remains 5th or 6th choice.

Or we can all see it for what it is, and within reason figure that he's probably looked out for himself to make a better decision 6 months from now. I think he's competitive and good enough to make a difference elsewhere. He perhaps will wait for June to make his move. That's all it could be.

quag wasnt shitty, and he doesnt have a massive contract. Hes just not part of our plans anymore. He also happens to have one of the best jobs ever, and all of us would kill to play at that level, but instead he chooses to see off his days training and contributing nothing.

Iaquinta also refused Bordo, Westham and the likes.

I guess it's okay.

He didn't like the weather and culture, nothing to do with being a leech.

Quag is much more useful to have than vucinic or Giovinco


I am suprsied to hear people think he won't be utilized. Maybe not this season, but next season with CL and Coppa schedule again he will be needed. Especially in CL since he is Juve only performer there

The cure to this forum cancer will be found when the 3 of quags, gio and Vucinic are sold. Matri already departed.. so the other 3 are left.

Then and only then..peace will return to the Tuz.
