Anyway, anybody against having a player like Zhirkov at LB even if his defensive side ain't that good?
Against?

Im only for! Yuri is a huge talent and will fit just perfect in a 4-3-1-2 system. Yes, he is not the best to defend, but good enough and will just get better. I say go get him, if the the amount is not crazy!

Zhirkov would be good but we don't really need anymore LB's right now. Hopefully we bring back Criscito to give him another shot and focus on the RB because that's the side that needs reinforcements.

PS. I wouldn't mind signing him if we can get rid of Moli. I've always thought Zhirkov was more of a winger and due to this I wouldn't really want him starting game in and game out as our LB.

I'd take Zhirkov only if it meant we developed Criscito into a CB. Otherwise no thanks. But, Zhirkov is versatile, I will give him that and it could be useful to us on the left flank. The guy is quick as hell and we couldn't lose any pace if Moli leaves.

Like we realistically could purchase Xavi?? :smoke:
If we all pooled our allowances, and asked really, really nicely... you know... "Pretty please, with sugar on top...?"

C'mon Greg - it wouldn't be that hard. We could offer them proven internationals of our own, like Grygera and Knezevic...

Shit... wasn't Knezevic just on loan from Livorno? I suppose we could throw in Marchionni instead, although that does seem like a lot for Xavi. After all... I heard recently that he's overrated, and really only passes to the flanks...

:xfinger:

We could be really interested in D'Agostino, seeing that our board started to bluff with dining, making a pre-contract with Quagliarella as reported and those comments about him, which made more pressure on Napoli. Udinese could have asked us for it.

Seriously, there is absolutely no real reason to buy Dagostino.
He is no better than Poulsen and Marchisio are going to be.
He cannot defend like Sissoko, neither create like Diego, Camo, Giovinco.

We cannot be sure that our 4-4-2 will be dropped, esp if get an inexperienced coach.
Remember that both DD and CR had other plans, but did not changed Capello's formation.
In the event of a 4-3-1-2 i would rather have a specialized DM, or smth like Asamoah.
We can replace our CMs and AMFs with out current material, esp if Neddy stays.
But as we have seen lately, without the best, we do not have enough defensive coverage...


And at any case, we should only consider buying another midfielder after fixing our defense first and see what happens after the sale of Treze.
I doubt that we will have any founds to throw away for a squad player then...
Lets not repeat the some mistakes for a 3rd consecutive season.
Fix the freaking defense first and then, upgrade our starters.

Dagostino does not complies with that, neither with the quality/quantity philosophy...

The only good thing i like about D'agostino is that he is a left footer central midfielder, i have always liked a lefty in the central mid, but now that we have Diego,then i say no more central midfielders,and just focus on defense..and of course selling players..i would love for juve to also try and get a better backup for Camo or at least introduce Iago to the first team..

Juventus close in on Gaetano D’Agostino
/ Transfer news
31/05/2009
Udinese central midfielder Gaetano D’Agostino will reportedly sign for Juventus in the coming days, following the final Serie A games of the season today.

According to Tuttosport, personal terms have already been agreed between the 26-year-old and the "Old Lady."

The agreement between the two clubs rests on Udinese who are weighing up which Juventus youngsters they would like as part of the deal. Sebastian Giovinco is rumoured to be a part of the imminent deal.

D’Agostino has had a fine season, scoring 11 goals in 46 appearances for Udinese. Prior to today’s match against Cagliari, the former Roma midfielder had scored in three consecutive matches.

With Pavel Nedved confirming that he will leave Juventus this week, D’Agostino could well be one of the main playmakers in the Turin giants’ midfield next season.
