Better CM indeed, but he won't provide any width or quickness.

MArchisio can at least push up on the right side somewhat.
:tup:

Anyway, here's hoping that Zanetti can remain healthy... he's been fragile for too long now, and the years will start to really take their toll soon. He would be a class substitute, and if he and Camo are coming off the bench, WOW. So deep.

I actually like Marchisio on the left, momo on the right, of that 4-3-1-2, but I'm extremely biased towards our youngsters (in most cases). Claudio is part of the future, and the future of Juventus really feels like it's beginning this season...

New cycle here we come, some massive, youthful acquisitions we'll have made... (If this Melo deal gets sealed...)

well holy shit. i told my friend to piss off when he said goal.com was claiming we got Melo.

sweet baby jesus if this son of a bitch signs for us we will be insane this season. What a gift for Ciro too by the way: Diego, Melo, Canna and ?? Man what a midfield, we wont need to sub them as young as they are:)

I already have a headache trying to guess what the lineups will look like each game with the crazy depth we have for midfield. Lets sell Poulsen/Zanetti or Tiago/Zanetti and keep one of the 3 and use that money for defense. Start incorporating Ekdal into the team, I'd say we have a pretty strong enough midfield that would support a youngster coming in every not and then.

Secco definitely blind sided us today if this is true. Honestly, where the hell did all this money come from? I now Alen, Mark or JCK said who cares where it came from if we had it...I am just curious, I wonder if the Elkans wrote a nice check to help us.

Guys, this year is going to be really exciting. I hope Melo is a done deal and mega props to Secco for wrapping this up in very little time. Great move if it is true as he didn't give any clubs a chance to react.

Is it me or are 25 m € quite a lot for Felipe Melo?Good deal for Fiorentina as well.
it is a lot but when you are signing top players that clubs are in no hurry to sell you have to overpay.

I guess not.

My guess is that we paid the full 25 m € and the Marchionni deal is seperate.We'll see.
Yes that can also be it, but in that case it would have played a great part as well.
