Now I don't know how to vote. If there is even a sand of truth about not wanting Ibrahimovic then we should fire him today. The Van Persie deal is also a big negative. But on the other hand he is probably the main reason for our transformation even more so than Conte.

If you truely think we afford ibra's current contract, or could sign van persie on the therms man utd did, then you should consider another sport. like cricket

FI reporting that RVP had agreed a deal with us but we penny pinched and asked us could he go to Utd :(
That's pretty respectful if he did, which also perhaps means we had an agreement in place in terms of salary. Given what he's earning at United, I'm pretty sure Juve were offering 7-8m plus bonuses, so clearly we fucked up with the 30m, which would've been well spent IMO.

I don't know, I'm happy with the work he has done overall but I don't think he's exceptional; I think we should aim for better for the DS role if we can but keep Paratici.

I agree. What he has done is acceptable, but I sincerely doubt he can take us to the next level. An extension wouldn't be the end of the world, but I'd prefer to try something else.

"Paratici and Nedvěd"

I'd like a solid reason why they deserve to kick Marotta out of his current role though.
Before Marrotta's arrival at the club, who would you choose for the role?! He has been par for the course. People dont know who to identify as a successor, but the network around the club with guys like Conte, Agnelli and Nedved is much stronger than it has been in recent years, so if it came to a new DS, that guy in all likelihood is going to have to match Conte's sporting ambition. For better or worse. Irrespective of Marrotta here, I'm just saying, that's perhaps how people at the club would choose the DS.

a few people expected us to end 2010/2011 without purchasing in januari, finishing the season with only del piero

Considering the economic climate for juve, that most of you flowers dont really understand, (but here is a butterfly send with love so you do) , marotta did exactly what the board asked.

we are a selfsustained team, with an own stadium, going positive balance next year, domminating serie a, competitive for europe (esp with llorente)

Now is the time, for managing players demanding higher fee's, and getting a premium quality asset every season.

You make it seem like all of it is Marrotta's doing. Believe it or not, a lot of it is down to the spadework the triade did in their time too.

We didn't have to reshuffle an attack that consisted of Diego and Trez in the first place, but we did, considering the 'economic climate.' Trez was replaced saying we had to bring down the age of the squad. He was on our wage bill and we bought Luca Toni in the January mercato along with Matri, on a salary similar to Trez. Same age, same wage pretty much. There's been a lot of contradictions in Marrotta's tenure. He's fucked up chasing big players like Aguero and RvP, and we have realistically been pursuing them, whether on our terms or not is another matter. But he has been after player's demanding higher salaries, and failed to get them, don't see how things are going to improve drastically this season vis a vis last season, because we did offer 30m for Jojo and failed. We failed to offer 30m for RvP which Marrotta himself regrets. Point being, he has been in this territory before and not measured up really, I don't blame the club for that. We ended up with Bendtner as champions of Italy last term. The problem is not Juve or their lack of buying power IMHO, the problem is Marrotta's incompetence/unwillingness to sell the Serie a to a world level player.
