Um you realize besides a period of being unfit and annoyingly off form, he has generally been a very consistent scorer for us? How the heck was he completely useless or a failure for us when he scored 55 goals in 100 games for us?

You answered your own question right there. Most goals he scored we didn't even need him for (Idk how many times this needs being pointed out - we didn't break the bank for him to win Serie A again), and I'm not going to repeat myself, I said it a thousand times on this thread. It's not only goals he scored or didn't score. He was incredibly useless in build up, lost every duel and finished both seasons when we needed him most in just God awful form because he was a fat pig who didn't want to do what his coach told him. He was the exact opposite of everything Juventus stands for - hard work, teamwork, sacrifice and professionalism. Dude showed up fit and ready for training camp only when we bought CR and he knew he was done. A definition of a parasite who was happy enough after his record season in Napoli and record transfer to the biggest club in Italy. His mission was done.

Can't understate how important it is we got rid of him. A loser like this would've dragged CR down even.

Just all out bad post. Waste of time to continue when you are incapable of any nuance in your evaluation. Cerval was right in saying ingrate.

The opposite really - I'm very grateful. Very grateful for the fact we finally got rid of him, very grateful he exposed himself as the fraud he is and very grateful he'll never step into Torino other than an opponent ready to disappoint yet another fanbase in a row (Real Madrid, Napoli, Argentina, Juventus, Milan, now Chelsea and who knows who's next, probably a loan to River or something).

Yeah, no one is blaming Higuain for costing 90m. We're blaming him for being a useless fuck who would've been a failure if he was paid 40m too.

I can tell you have thought about this and have plenty of quantitative analysis to support such a dumb statement

It's an exaggeration obviously but one just needs to be realistic to see he brought nothing new, he didn't improve the team at all to what we already had (same number of goals with and without him, same success with and without him and same for Napoli too).

He was out of shape and unprofessional most of the time. We made a huge investment and gave him a superstar salary, he played the most minutes he could've, every attack went through him one way or another, etc etc. If you can seriously stand there and tell me that he was a good and successful signing that's your prerogative. But this is not your average PL club who overpays everything that walks. That was Juventus and that transfer was something unheard of. That was 90m before Neymar and those other guys, before the market went crazy. I remember people's reaction around the internet when the rumors first started flying in, it was the biggest joke ever, no one believed for a second we would pay all that money in cash. 40m for any player was a laughing joke at the time.

And forget about the exact number. Just think of what it represents. Juventus paying that and any other club paying that is not the same. We put all our faith in him, all our marbles in one bowl. He had exactly TWO great games in Europe in two years. TWO. And again, it's not just about goals. Ronaldo scored just one goal in CL this year and he was amazing in every single one (except YB away). Mandžukić blew him out of the water. Tevez was otherworldly good in every game. Morata was decisive 70% of the time. Higuain wasn't just average or something, he was the worst player on the pitch 95% of the time. And it's not like everyone else was shit so he had an excuse.

So no, I'm not happy and grateful that he didn't do anything Matri and Quagliarella couldn't (in Serie A) and a year-away-from-retirement Carlos Tevez couldn't.

Fuck him and his stupid whiny 'you-don't-know-how-hard-it-is-haters' face. Good riddance.

Fuck you and your stupid whiny 'you-don't-know-how-shit-Higuain-was' posts. Good riddance. Lol.

 

[IlCapitano]

Haha that's funny

 

[JuveJay]

let's not forget we couldn't let higuain go to milan without getting bonucci back. bonbon was by far milan's most costly player last season, they couldn't afford higgy with bonucci in the squad. these were separate deals only on paper.

Didn't they just spend a lot on Paqueta? I think CL is key.

 

[lgorTudor]

Selling Pogba for Higgy was a bigger crime than any genocide in world's history

 

[Gabigol]

What @IlCapitano said. We put all our faith when we paid a record Serie A transfer to get him and the first thing he did was to show up looking like the Latino Jonah Hill in a pre-season friendly. It's clear to him he already made it and don't need to put in any effort which really pissed me off. He show up when he feel like it (Monaco away, Spurs and Inter last year) but that's about it.

I want players who are hungry and fight to achieve the highest honors, not sit on a multi million euro salaries and do nothing. This loser can fuck off. Mandzu will always be a Juve legend even if he end his time here with less goals than Piggy purely on how he represented the Juventus shirt.

they are walking a thin line, though. ffp regulations must be met if they are about to enter cl next season.

also, i'm not sure they would took paqueta during this window if higgy stayed. rumors about him leaving were spreading since early december iirc.

Can't walk into a thread on tuz without falling over a treasure. Let's go loot!

 

[X Æ A-12]

People here acting like Beppe paying release clauses for Pjanic and Golzalo in one summer was not bigdick move. Strengthened areas of team that needed it and took our two rivals best players from them.

How the man had the gall i will never know. Fucked Serie A like it owed him money.

Fvck off with that nonsense, Higauin was excellent player for us mostly. It's not his fault he cost so much and they wanted to replace him with one of the top few best players in history of the game.

Why do you even try bother with these retards? They actually think Higuain flopped and here and was a failure. Lmao. Height of stupidity and delusion.

And we were 45 mins away from winning a treble after those two signings. Shit happened obviously in that Madrid final, but peeps are acting as if we got knocked out in the first round/round of 16 in both seasons with Higuain and that he barely scored any goals for us. Just brainless spoilt morons who deserve the Secco Juventus days with Amauri as striker.

One does not joke about the absence of a surface pro though.
