Criscito really disappointed me character-wise so I don't count on him anymore.

Juventus are close to agreeing a contract rescission with Portuguese international defender Jorge Andrade.

The 30-year-old joined the Bianconeri from Deportivo La Coruna last summer, but he broke his left rotula at the start of the 2007-08 campaign.

Just as he was nearing a return to fitness, Andrade damaged the same kneecap during pre-season training and was sentenced to another lengthy spell out of action.

Juve have decided to offer to buy out Andrade's contract to ensure that they don't have to pay the injured stopper's wages until the expiry of his deal in June 2010.

The signing of Andrade has backfired badly for the Old Lady, who have invested over £8m and seen very little in return.

Every time you buy a player, there is a risk. Ok, with Andrade it was a little bigger cause he had lost the previous season because of an injury...

Another zlatan if you ask me.

Huh?

 

[Sad Statue]

Huh?

they are talking about quaresma...

wonder what would have happened if we actually got quaresma...striker three?

Another zlatan if you ask me.

 

[A͎u͎s͎h͎]

Ahhh man, 8m + 3-4m in wages down the drain...

If we are to buy a new defender in January it will be Branislav Ivanovic, let's only hope that we do well in the Group stages and he doesn't step on the pitch for Chelsea and we're off to a really good signing.

Ivanovic is quite an unproven player. Do you think we need someone like him right now????

No no, you are right, we should only get experienced players. We will get Crespo and play him as CB

 

[Luca]

crespo it is then

 

[JCK]

He's experienced and proven.

 

[Luca]

tonnes of experience means that he can play anywhere even CD better than a CB, because after all experience is the most important thing a footballer can have

What do you have with Crespo???? And were do you se me talking about experience????

I only said unproven cause Ivanovic hasn't done anything in Chelsea and i don't hink we need another Criscito-like player...

 

[JCK]

Is Ivanovic Criscito-like?

Is Ivanovic Criscito-like?

He is an unproven player that hasn't done anything in Chelsea. Just like Criscito was when we bought him...

I don't know if Ivanovic will be a world class player sometime. For now he is someone that everybody calls talent but hasn't done everything...

What did Messi do before he joined Barcelona?

What did Messi do before he joined Barcelona?

Ok, let me understand...

Our defence is our weak point. We have already taken an average player (Knezevic) for our defence. Now we say that we need someone to give more options to Ranieri for our defence, and you tell me we should take another talent, who may be the next Cannavaro but may be a piece of crap...

The difference between Ivanovic and Criscito is that the former already played for a pretty good team (Lokomotiv Moscow), with huge success and he already has international experience by playing in UEFA Cup and for his National team (he scored 2 goals for his NT, one against France and the other against Portugal).

Criscito on the other hand never ever played a serie A match in his life before he joined Juventus ( here i mean that he never played in the main league of a country. He only played primavera and serie B football) . He never played in Europe and he never represented his NT.

Also, Ivanovic is 24 while Criscito was only 20 last year.

I'm not comparing them talent wise, but you must admit that Ivanovic is much more experienced than Criscito was last year.

Do you think of Lokomotiv as such a big team?? And his appearances in UEFA cup are ok but not enough...

His had the chance to prove that he is a great player when he went to Chelsea, and he has not done everything in such a high level...
