Cuz id like to see him here!!Why else?

And it would really piss off the purple rats!!!!
Right. If we aren't convinced in Bastos, just Vargas can be an equal replacement to him then. I don't see any others good LWs on the market that could have the quality to play for Juve. Just i'm not sure about Elia.

What I dnt get is, Vargas is more of a crosser, while Bastos cuts in a lot more. So how can Conte feel the latter doesn't suit the system? If anything, we're getting rid of the headers like Amanda and Iaquinta. So shouldn't we have been going for the winger that cuts in a lot more and shoots? Krasic on the other hand can cross. I think Krasic Bastos as a pair will complement each other better than Krasic Vargas. And above that we'll also have an equally capable, LB on our hands if the need arises. Bastos is the better value for money purchase here IMO. And might even cost less.

No doubt about that. But you got one thing wrong, Bastos is a magnificent crosser too.

This video shows a lil bit of his skills

Bastos is 12-13m last time I heard ? I don't know about Vargas though.

Sure. Though I do think Vargas has a deadlier cross since the focus of his game is primarily along the touchline. Bastos is a good crosser too, but he goes for goal more often.
