Juan Cuadrado (63 Viewers)

I disagree, for 20+ million asking price, we should only buy him as a last resort, we have to aim for better player for that money.

First half normal, second half: really good.

20m is still too much imo

 

[Klin]

This was the first time I've seen Cuadrado playing for us like his Fiorentina days. He absolutely wrecked them with his speed.

More of this please.

Pretty much showed he needs to be bought tonight. We dont need him playing this well in middle of negotiation with Chelsea lol.

They don't want him he doesn't want to go back it doesn't make much difference

better than Cuadrado for 20M?

only Zaza comes to mind

 

[Osman]

It's not about wether or not they will sell him but a question of how much. Juve been in a position to negotiate down the agreed sum for the loan deal due to the struggling squad player role he has with us. It would help even more with the price if the player himself was adamant he only wants Juve and not other prospective buyers.

 

[JuveMkd]

I thought they didn't have a written buy out price thats why we are negotiating but it would be the best if we got him on another loan

 

[JuveJay]

Verbal agreement, never liked the idea of those with foreign clubs. Imagine a new coach comes in and wants a player out on loan, situation changes.

MoM according to whoscored...then again, I'm fairly sure Whoscored overrates dribbles...

Marotta: 'Juve want to keep Cuadrado'
By Football Italia staff

Beppe Marotta confirmed Juventus “will try to keep Juan Cuadrado and have a verbal agreement with Chelsea.”

The winger arrived on loan over the summer and has been increasingly pushed to the bench in recent games.

“He is on loan. In tactical terms he is very different to the other players, so it’s only normal he suits us,” director general Marotta told Rai Sport.

“There is a verbal agreement for an option to buy from Chelsea, so we’ll see what happens.

“We are happy with what he’s doing both on and off the field, so certainly he is someone we’ll try to keep in Turin next season too.”

3 year loan plus option to buy for 25 mil and we wait for his contract to expire and sign him.

players like Sandro arent being found on every corner. this is potentially (if not already) the best fullback in the world

This was definitely his best game playing in our 3-5-2. Thought he worked very hard and was solid defensively, in addition to being a live wire in attack. Really exploited the generous amount of space well -- and it was also helpful that Inter were consistently reckless in the tackle. Really ugly stuff from Inter, which is always fun.

I still haven't changed my mind about purchasing him for 20M (will take more than one great game in our 3-5-2 to do that), but he's certainly headed in the right direction. I still don't think he's well suited to playing TQ (quarters would be too tight for this guy), still don't think we want to play him in a 3 man midfield (not disruptive enough defensively, not enough presence, also turns the ball over too much), or as a RB in a back 4 (I think it would totally negate his skill set)... but if he can put in some more solid performances in our 3-5-2, he might just change my mind.

Hopefully he does change my mind, I like this guy's attitude, and when he's on, he's a lot of fun to watch!

Wise words. Agreed.
