First of all, I am not a retard, unlike you

Moreover, I wasn't disputing the fact that he might seem to be better, but is that definitive? Can you guarantee that he is going to put in the same performances for Juventus? Legro was awesome with Chievo, yet he rarely reproduced that form for Juventus.

I am just sick and tired of these "hit and hope" which result in "hit and miss" scenarios. I want someone proven and qualified; otherwise, why bother? Bonnuci was also very impressive for Bari!

oh yeah great comeback! kid that belongs in the kindergarten playground

they said diego was proven too.... Matri's goalscoring rate is proven in serie A yet you slated the signing of him, could you get anymore contradicting?

zidane was a hit and hope signing, as were the likes for Iuliano, Montero etc... who turned out to be good/great, they wern't exactly world class before they joined Juve, and as i said before even after all this time of your 'support for Juve' havn't even realised that, then im surprised you havn't switched your support to someone like Real madrid already.

People tend to forget Bonucci and Chiello are the same type of player and for that reason they'll never form a great partnership.

Its sad that most of our fans cant figure out where our main weakness is and prefer to chase and sign high-profile and star players like Aguero, Higuain, Sanchez etc, other than concentrate on type of players we need the most. It is no mystery that even with the capture of Licht and Ziegler, we still have limited options in defense and with a longer injury of some key player at the back we will struggle again, and that in our case most of the times means losing stupid points vs weaker teams, points that at the end of the season can be very decisive. Dont get me wrong - I would love to have player like Aguero or Sanchez up front, but that would not mean much if we`re still shaky in defense, maybe we will score more goals, but we`ll continue to concede like a midtable team, which even with two 7th places in a row we are not.

We need another defender, a good one, which can challenge Chiellini and Bonucci for the starting CB spot, create some competition and make them play their best every game, not stay calm with the feeling that whatever they do on the pitch, they are sure starters in the next game. I am not happy with Barzagli as our 1st choice back-up CB, I think he is good enough to be 4th choice CB in our team for the next 2-3 even 4 years, but not to be the guy to save us when Giorgio or Leo is unavailable. I dont like the idea of keeping Sorensen as a back-up, the kid needs to play, and not in the Primavera, we must send him on loan to some Seria A team, not that co-own and selling shit, just a free loan, he can improve a lot more with playing official games for a weaker team than just participating in training sessions with Juve, no doubt about it. He`s got the potential, he needs experience and confidence, which he can get next season (or couple of seasons), if he develops the way we hope and expect and is ready to compete for the starting spot at Juve, he would be more than welcome to our first team, and if he`s not, then there are coaches and directors that shall decide his future.

Sign a damn defender first, then chase the cherry on the cake.
