Giuseppe 'The Savior' Rossi - ST - Villareal (40 Viewers)

[Vinny Del Pogba]

Yeah, so if we want him, it should be because he's a good player. Speaking the language is a plus, but it doesn't seem to hinder most good players.

There wouldn't be a 59 page thread on him if he wasn't good.

Correction: 60 pages. Going by your logic, Aguero is about 8 times the player Rossi is, seeing as his thread has over 440 pages

 

[Linebreak]

We are more likely to get Rossi than Aguero, we won't be able to complete with the richest clubs once they start aiming for Aguero - we will disappear from the race in the blink of an eye

That's not true at all.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

I believe he's trying to say the transition would be easier on him than aguero.

Maybe. And that's just one plus- one which is really overstated.

I have no idea how you came to this conclusion.

 

[Bjerknes]

I love all these little excuses to go after the Italian player as opposed to a foreigner. They speak the language, they have played in Serie A, they can slurp spaghetti through their nose, whoop-dee-fucking-doo. In the scheme of things, that's all bullshit when it comes to ability with the football. Anybody who brings that crap up is discredited by allllllllll the fucking foreign players who have played anywhere and lit the place up. So shut up about it. It's dumb.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

Palabra.

 

[X Æ A-12]

...they have a 59 page thread

 

[The Curr]

Parola.

Yes, I know, hence the joke.

It's not an excuse, but a reason why the player may fit better and adjust quicker in the long run. It is not to say Aguero would not come in here and blend into the squad right away and be great.

I think Rossi should be the target if Aguero is no longer an option.

[lev lucien]

anybody here want Berbatov or Vuci more than Rossi if we miss out on Aguero?

If we have to pay twice as much for Rossi as them then yes.

 

[lev lucien]

Rossi for 25-30 mln

or

Vuci or Berba for 14-18 mln?

It doesn't mean shit if they can't play football, dude. Look at Pepe, the wonderful Azzurri winger we are graced to have on our roster. This guy hasn't done anything and wouldn't BE anything if folks wouldn't use the same excuse you're purporting. He wouldn't be HERE, at Juventus, right now.

Your mentality is the EXACT SAME SHIT that Marotta and company adore and I don't take this crap anymore. If you want to sign Rossi, fine, argue his footballing talent. Don't purport this bullshit about him being "Italian" because he himself admitted HE DOES NOT FEEL ITALIAN OFF THE PITCH AT ALL.

 

[Quetzalcoatl]

For 30m, Jovetic and Kolarov.

 

[lev lucien]

For 30m, Jovetic and Kolarov.

jovetic is coming back from a knee explosion and would still cost 20+

kolarov 1. isn't coming
2. isn't cheaper than 18+

but I would say pre-injury Jovetic is about the same class as Rossi to me.
