Bonucci said is what the team wants.

No one want to get the flame of the incoming deal it seems.
They throwinf the blame to each other

This is what the club always said, in response to every transfer.

They said the same when there were rumours about Marchisio leaving.

Now I'm not saying Bonucci won't leave, but this interview is no indication of that at all.

sounds like they want to get rid of him. disappointing.



age?? he's 29 and a CB. he's probably got at least another 5-6 years at the top level
True. He is our best defender overall but we are pretty stacked in defence. I'm not saying his absence wouldn't be felt, but it would not be a heavy blow to our team. If we could get 60 million for him I think Marotta would consider accepting and strengthening other areas of the team that really need improvement (midfield!).

Selling Bonucci right now would be downright stupid. Chiellini and Barzagli can't go a full season anymore. Rugani is coming into his own but still is quite young. Caldara won't be joining until 2018 and even then will need a couple of seasons with Juve to develop into a world class defender. I'd like to think the club is smarter than selling him this summer.

Bonucci in 4 man defense and 3 man defense are two different players. His value depends on the direction of our tactics IMO.

What, a weak statement from Paratici? If they really were serious about keeping him it would be Marotta saying something like 'Bonucci is an important part of this club etc etc', not basically say the player is free to leave if he wants.

He's been excellent in both a three and four man defense, don't really know where you're coming from tbh.

To me it looks much more like good/bad patches of form.
