Conte, Pirlo, Pazienza, Ziegler = Masterpiece of Shit
:lol:

After the game yesterday:

“Last summer we were in a downward spiral and we had two choices: renew the team by looking for a couple of Champions samples to insert into a deeply flawed group or be revolutionary. There could not be a mix of the two, it would cost an unsustainable figure. We preferred the second option because I feared that with the first we would finish worse than when we started and despite the disappointment of ending once more in seventh place, we are not repentant. This year we start with a base ready to progress.”
“We were able to move fast, with a greater choice this year. We need motivation and motivators in the squad. Delneri achieved 80% of what was asked of him and it was not easy. Now we need to introduce a new mentality, we were among the teams with the lowest number of defeats but we paid a high price for too many ties, we have thrown away games that were already won. We must again be referred to as the Juve Franco Causio told me about, which once 1-0 up gave no hope to anyone.”
And this summer we are still in that same downward spiral

Juve have appeal, insists Marotta


Director general Beppe Marotta insists that Juventus will be able to attract top class players this summer.

The Old Lady did struggle to sign new faces a year ago when Antonio Di Natale, Nicolas Burdisso and Marco Borriello all rejected a switch to Turin.

To make matters even more complicated, Juve have no European football to offer targets this summer after finishing seventh in Serie A.

“Juventus will conserve their appeal, despite the lack of European football,” Marotta responded. “All the great champions that we have spoken to are ready to come here.

“Obviously the talks will be difficult because clubs are asking for mad amounts of money, but the players are at our disposal.

“Last year we had to move within smaller margins. It is different this time around. We can move quite early and we can sign a few players for free.”

Juve have already swooped for Andrea Pirlo from Milan on a Bosman and are close to doing the same for Sampdoria’s Reto Ziegler.

Marotta had a busy time 12 months ago radically changing the playing staff, but he insists there won’t be so many moves this time around.

“We had two roads in front of us last year – one was revolution and the other was to spend all of our budget on just two stars,” he added.

“There is no proof of how we would have done had we chosen the other path. Anyway, I’m convinced that what we did was right.

“The problem was the environment here, it was depressed, and we opted for big changes.

“What mattered though was to lay the foundations for the future and I think that six or seven of the players we signed can go on to form the base to which to add a few champions.”
Does he really think people buy this nonsense?

What base ready to progress is talking about ?
Martinez, Toni and Barzagli? Because the rest still need to be bought...and if we buy them, we wont have cash for the starters he is speaking about (they better be a LM and RB)

Considering our tragic situation and the fact the next season is already wasted, a starter RB and a starter LM, among with keeping Matri, Quaq, Sorensen, and one more wouldnt be bad...

Funny thing is how Marotta always stresses how we will keep 6-7 of the players he brought (without including Pirlo, Ziegler and Pazienza) and ppl are still expecting a revamped new starter line up with 4-5 new starters:crazy:

I wouldn't really complain about Pirlo and Ziegler for free. Ziegler will be backup and Pirlo will replace Aquilani and save an extra 16 million which could go towards a star signing.

Now let's see how the rest of the mercato pans out.

Yea I'm not going to criticize him for making free moves. But lets see if he really addresses our needs and how he allocates our spending budget in doing so

Juventus eye a top striker

Juventus director Beppe Marotta says the club are targeting a top striker, but he refused to admit any interest in midfielder Gokhan Inler.

Talking to Sky Sport Italia on Thursday, he was asked whether one from Carlos Tevez [Man City], Karim Benzema [Real Madrid] or Sergio Aguero [Atletico Madrid] would arrive.

“Let’s say that we are looking for a player who is similar in profile to those,” he responded without naming names.

“We are looking for some important players, no matter what role they play, even if the attacking department is the one which the public gets excited about.

“We’ll continue to target players who have achieved important results during their career so far.”

Some whispers today suggested that Juve were also thinking about hijacking Napoli’s bid for Udinese ace Inler.

“Inler is a player who everybody is talking about, but I won’t commit myself,” the director general explained.

“All I will say is that despite the fact that we will have no European football to offer next season, a lot of players are ready to wear our shirt. This is significant.”
