Julian Draxler - AM LC - Schalke 04 (46 Viewers)

[JuveJay]

I just want a CM/AM, thats all I wan't Jay

But really he is a wide AM, not a trequartista. With Cuadrado and Pogba pretty advanced, and Dybala looking to play off the striker I don't know how this is all going to work. It's like playing FIFA career mode with a financial takeover bonus.

I think we need a CM more than anything now, someone like Allan would have been perfect.

That's not how you do it.

You're meant to now demand Juve sign him whatever the price so that you feel less silly for devoting so much time to thinking/positing about Juve signing Draxler.

what do you think about our mercato till now?

Cuadrado on the bench of course

I am pretty sure Allegri said he seems him as more of a Mezz'ala

 

[RAMI-N]

Because officially we did

We officialy got 10 mln last season from selling him to Sass

A Demi-God?

 

[JuveJay]

€10m was for Berardi, we got €7.5m for Zaza.

Unless you are a mod, that won't work .

And the last time I insulted a mod, I got so pissed that I ended up leaving of my own accord


So that won't $#@!ing work for me either.

Maybe murder is the way out. Solitary confinement no TV, no internet, no human contact.

But I have faith in Beppe our lord saviour to exorcise the 3-5-2 demon.

The power of beppe compels you!

The power of beppe compels you!

Not for a 3-5-2 in my opinion. None of them have the defensive workrate that Vidal has. Granted, Arturo's offensive capabilities have slipped a little in the last 18 months, and his passing was never good, but his defensive workrate was absolutely top notch for this club.

Asamoah is possibly the best suited to fill in for Vidal (they need someone with a true defensive backbone in that midfield lineup) but who knows when the hell he is coming back. Same for Khedira

Khedira defensively is different, but not inferior imo.

Very slow tho

 

[RAMI-N]

€10m was for Berardi, we got €7.5m for Zaza.

Fine, that means we spent 10.5 mln on him not 18

It's harder to justify selling Vidal if a good trequartista doesn't arrive.

Good other than that, though.

 

[JuveJay]

Yes, basically. Just like we spent €7m bringing Giovinco back (€1m loan + €3m co-ownership), rather than the €11m we paid back to Parma.

Dybala, mandzukic, khedira, cuadrado, alex sandro

Yet people complain cause tevez and vidal wanted out

 

[zizinho]

Fine, that means we spent 10.5 mln on him not 18

and if we loan him with that option to buy as rumored (2+16M), we are returning the 18M we invested this summer, so we will be positive for 6.5M on the whole Zaza operation

 

[KB824]

I've never heard of a slow defender not being inferior to a fast one, if I may be perfectly honest

 

[RAMI-N]

Exactly.

[Nicholas]

3-5-2 is like being raped in the eyes.

Allegri at no point has said that's his preferred formation, he's always maintained, 4-3-let's see. Marotta shouldn't be trying to shoehorn him into that.

Rightfully so. The quality remains unreplaced

 

[Zacheryah]

Rightfully so. The quality remains unreplaced

Yeah, because we can actually replace vidal and tevez..

 

[lgorTudor]

Yeah, because we can actually replace vidal and tevez..

I said 'quality remains unreplaced', not 'vidal remains unreplaced'. If the board intended to replace Vidal they wouldn't have sold him. We tried to raise funds for a much needed position but ended up with smalltime transfers that don't justify a sacrifice like Vidal. Should have shifted every penny of the fee plus 15-20mil towards Isco-kind of players.

 

[Hust]

Then we wouldn't have been able to afford Sandro, for example, would we?
