We can't really know that, and I wouldn't say Jovetic is a higher calibre signing than Nando, not yet anyways.

I just don't like that he's oldish and on the decline now, when his best was never that great to begin with. I mean, I don't expect him to be better for us than he was for Bilbao, which will mean that our attack can still do with some improving (unlike the other departments of our team).

so we'd look like this next season:

Buffon
Storari
Rubinho or other 3rd keeper

Barzagli
Caceres
Bonucci
Marrone(or new CB)
Chiellini
Dória
Lichtsteiner
Isla
Asamoah
Peluso

Vidal
Pogba
Pirlo
Marchisio
Giaccherini
Pepe
CM/DM(or Marrone)

Vucinic
Giovinco
Llorente
Quagliarella or new ST/SS
Matri or new ST/SS/Immobile/Gabbiadini/Boakye


- De Ceglie would be sold for about 5m, Matri and Quag could be sold for a total of 14-15m. That's 20m in the bag.

- Asamoah/Isla/Peluso to be optioned so that's about 22m €.

Almost even and we got the rest of the budget for a CB, CM or Winger, other half of the youngsters and maybe a good forward.

Jovetic is one of the few players who I believe would be the new Del Piero for us.

Alex is unique. There will be never someone like him.

Some clarifications?
-Why keep Peluso and not DC?
-How much can we make out of MAtri?
-Why should we buy yet another CM???
-How much Boscchetti would cost this summer?

Both of them will stay as they are good squad players. We can't have 22 star players. The wages would be through the roof.

 

[Mark]

Padoin?

I forgot about him, we could either keep him for cover or sell to Genoa...

we could then sign freebies like Diakité/Kirchhoff or buy Neto for the CB position, Moussa Sissoko for the mid and go big on a forward like Sanchez/JoJo or my boy Isco that could play SS or behind a CF.

 

[K.O.]

Going to Celtic.

Yea possible. He would want to try it at top level.

 

[Nicholas]

I think along with Llorente we'll sign another attacker.

Midfield, Goal Keeper and Midfield we're set.

Matt, have you been infected with Croncovitis or something? Stop trolling man. Llorente is 27, reaching his peak in terms of years. The last season he got minutes on the pitch he led his team to the EL final. A rather mediocre Bilbao team, at that.

- Because Juve think Peluso is better.
- ~8m
- because after Pogba we use Giaccherini there and he's not a pure CM. A cheap option likePoli/Obiang or a free Moussa Sissoko wouldn't hurt.
- He'd be free if we sign him in next year's mercato session. If we want him before 2-4m.

Both of them will stay as they are good squad players. We can't have 22 star players. The wages would be through the roof.

DC will probably ask to play more and get sold.

 

[Nicholas]

Hopefully he doesn't get called up for the confederation cup, so he can have a fully summer with us.

 

[Mark]

When is the u-20 tournament starting and what channels plan to show it?

 

[Klovn]

That was actually funny.

 

[Klin]

I can't stress enough of what an amazing this deal would be for free. It'll be difficult to get him this month though, seeing as Bilbao don't have any backup to their forwards.

Can we stop derailing the thread with personal attacks. I only come here to talk about Juve... Oops, I mean...

27, 28 is generally peak for strikers. He should be at his best now, won't be getting any better. To say he led them there is quite an exaggeration 7 goals is great, but if that's the pinnacle of his career, then you can see why I won't be excited. I'm not against it either, just indifferent.

I think his point is that Jovetic has world class potential while Llorente has passed the getting any better stage and this is his prime.

 

[Klin]

Nzoric, Matt won't be happy until we sign Jovetic, irrelevant if we end up with Messi.
