Paro, Buffon, DP, Zanetti, Camo, Marchionni, Birrindelli, Chiellini, Balzaretti, palladino and others, but hey, who's counting?

I think Juve will now be linked with every good young player in the French league...Givet Odemwingie Ribery and so on...

signing him would be better than paying 8 million for Di Natale, hes 25, players for a decent club and scores lots of goals. This season for Lille he has scored 22 from 50 and for Nigeria he has scored 3 from 5.

I say we do the best to bring him to the club.

I think Di Natale was pure bull...just created out of nowhere by the italian media...just because he played well against georgia

..

This guy is nothing more than a slight upgrade to Zalayeta. Definitely no to this guy, and we should get rid of Zalayeta.

we'll spend too much on these players
fred like 35 mill(lyon always get triple the value of a player)
benzema mayb, but we'll pay like 10 mill, n hes young(which is an advantage)
get briand, the guy is wicked n amazing(i thought he's only good in fm but then i watched a couple of games for rennes n found out hes amzing)

why do we need strikers? trezeguet will stay on if we get promoted and we have del piero, bojinov, palladino, guzman and zalayeta who is still good enough back up.

we really should be looking at spending money on our defence and midfield where we need to reinforce the most.

for those that want to know jimmy briand, here's what i got from wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Briand

Jimmy Briand (born August 2, 1985 in Vitry-sur-Seine, France) is a French football player who plays as a forward. He currently plays for Stade Rennais, and has also played for the French national under-21 team in recent times. He won the Coupe Gambardella in 2003.

Briand is being tipped to be one of France's top strikers in the future, and his playing style has drawn comparisons with Thierry Henry.

a decent player but not Juve standard IMO.

he is fast and agile but from what i remember of him he doesnt look the strongest player.

i remember him scoring a great goal years ago for Nigeria in the African Nations Cup and not really hearing anything about him since.

for a long serie A season and Ale's see-saw physical condition, I dont think guzman palladino and zalayeta as back-up are enough...I think that is what we have lacked b4 also...it was ale trez and ibra with zalayeta giving occasional support...we should look to get some1 more reliable as a forward

Its all good buying players but we need to make sure we buy the right ones for us. Barzagli / Ribery / Mascherano/ dessena / and another def.
