It was 11 for buying him back, but they paid like 3.5-4 for his loan and co ownership, so in total it cost us around 7.

You know that Mascherano was arguably the best out-and-out DM in the world when he went to Barca?
When has Marrone ever shown any real defensive ability?
And, even as good as Mascherano is at one-on-one defending, when it comes to positioning and reading the game it is continually apparent that he is not a natural CB.

Also, Mascherano is very quick, so he can recover from positional errors at times.
Marrone doesn't have that.
All in all, any comparison between Mascherano and Marrone is utterly ridiculous.
If you must try to clutch at straws to try and convince yourself Marrone could have a future as a CB, at least use De Rossi as your comparison.

I am not completely convinced by this deal... Let's see the details and rest assured that at least now the risk of him flopping is evenly spread. IMHO we could have kept him, but our management seem to know what they are doing these days.
PS: If we have official information and financial details of the deal, could someone post them?
Does anyone believe we would get 22M Euro's for Giovinco? I know he is valued 21M by http://www.transfermarkt.de , but I hardly see anyone paying 15M for him. :frown:

I can't believe I'll have to explain it again. First, we're not paying for our player to go play elsewhere. We sell 50% of his contract, because we feel he has the potential to be usefull for us and yet we don't have the time to invest in him. Say we sell Marrone's half for 5 million. He spends two seasons at Parma, two scenarios arise:
1) He improved greatly, he is now ready to step up and play on a regular basis for Juventus. We buy the half we sold back for (say 11m as it were with Giovinco). For 6m euro we have a finished product which would cost us 20m if we bought him from some other club.
2) He didn't do shit, which means that his value dramatically decreased. He's not shown to be cut out for Juventus (as many of these co-owns do). Instead of wasting years by trying to develop him, paying his wages etc - we can now sell his other half for 2m to Parma and come out with 7m euro for a player that we now ( two years later ) couldn't sell for 7m if we tried.
It's really not that hard to figure out man
