Since when does pace and dribbling = more talent??
Zarate .... Or perhaps Pato who both were teenagers and their clubs (lazio and Milan) spent a lot on just to turn out to be worthless money.

Unless a young player is extremely good (young Aguero, neymar, C.ronaldo) clubs should never spent a fortune on those young players.

And I'm sorry, watched 5-6 games for Verona last season and Iturbe reminded me a lot of Zarate. Great dribbler with great shots but awful (even shiit ) when it come to his decision.

So really you're saying it is down to personal choice? :D

As an extreme theoretical example it's like comparing Robben to Nedved.
Seems like we're diverting from actually whats needed to discuss here.
I'll be honest,im not entirely convinced by Berardi yet despite his goal rush last yr which seems to be supporting the argument against Iturbe.I just dont feel he's ready yet and you cant blame me for picking Iturbe over him at this pt.I dont know how else i shud explain this.
I want Juve to be much more direct with an injection of pace and flair and lets say Iturbe is much more suited to help us achieve that than Berardi at this pt.This is not a knock on Berardi but im speaking in terms of the requirements from an attacking perspective for this Juve side right now.

thats y u have a coach...and senior players around u to help u with ur decision making and progressively weed these kind of tactical flaws out of him.

so, is that all?

We don't need Berardi at this point, we badly lack pace, counter attacking abilities and directness I.E a wide player being able to take their man on. That is simply not Berardi's strengths. He's far from a typical winger really.

The "high wages and poor clubs" excuse stands the same this year again, so what makes you think that this year MArotta will start making miracles and sell them all?
I don't expect miracles, that's the point.

With your logic, were never interested on a finisher of Dzeko's, RVP, Cavani's and Higuain class either.
No, I believe we actually tried to get these players, on our terms. The issue with left backs is whether they improve our starting line up. If we don't sign Evra then it tells its own story. You consider he will make the team stronger, so...no reason not to buy this relatively cheap option, right?

Its not htat MArotta can get what he wants, he is very limited, incompetent and always forced to compromise.
His best transfers were opportunity targets, most of the times he simply has waited for the player's contract to expire and wait for them to be attracted by Juve's fainting prestige...
Change the record.

Yep, he's more of an inside forward/SS than a winger.

I think he'll replace Tevez if everything goes well and he continues hitting double figures.

I want Iturbe at Conte's disposal for pre-season camp.

C'mon Marotta. :)

Once we sell 3 or 4 deadwood players a la Vucinic i'm sure people won't be crying over the price tag if we do end up getting him.
Vucinic, Quagliarella and Peluso are 100% leaving. That's really good and a lot of wages off the books.

Padoin will probably go too.

That's what I said in response to Badass' question. Berardi and Iturbe are different type of players even though they both play RWF. Iturbe is a typical winger - pace, dribbling and all that. Berardi is more like Tevez but faster.

Maybe Tevez comparison isn't the best one out there but Berardi would surely take his place with more success than Iturbe. Tevez won't be here forever it might be his first and last contract with Juve. He's never hidden the fact he wants to go back to Argentina - rather sooner than later.
