Midfield situation (28 Viewers)

[Azzurri7]

It is always healthy to have world class players at your disposal but I'm afraid having too many players for the same position mostly wouldn't help much. At least that's the case in Football.

It creates lots of tension I'm afraid (Some of you now will say, competing for a spot is good for the team... IMO it's not, it brings nothing but headache to the squad, players and coach if you have several players for the same position)


Take a look at this

Tiago, Zanetti, Marchisio, Sissoko, Poulsen, Camoranesi, Melo, Salihamidzic and Almiron??. Keeping apart Giovinco because we don't know how he'll be used under Ferrara.


If Ferrara plans to use 3man midfield, this means 4 players will be left out. Selling two of them would be better than keeping them IMHO.

I would sell Tiago for sure.

Poulsen will go I think.

I'd like Tiaga to follow him but I think we'll keep him.

 

[Azzurri7]

I'm actually surprised no media/press had anything to say concerning Poulsen's offers or his departure from Juve. I think he'll stay.

There is a rumour of him+4mil for Rafinha.

Yeah true, my bad.... him +4m for Rafinha isn't bad at all. Though I think he can give something he hasn't shown to this team last year.

Poulsen isn't a bad player at all but we need a RB much more than we need another CM.

Good deal I think.

One:
Melo

Sissoko - Marchisio

Diego


Two:
Tiago/Poulsen

Camo - Zanetti

Giovinco


I really want to see Tiago out, but the sad fact is the prick is unsellable at the moment

Competing for a spot is only a good thing if every player has a fair & reasonable chance of getting one. With (at least) 7 players fighting for 3 spots that is definitely not the case.
Ferrara might also consider Brazzo a midfielder, which would make a total of 8 (excluding Giovinco).
At the very least one player should have to go, but I'm not sure this will happen.

 

[torricelli_juve]

Tiago Vs Poulsen, we'll keep one of the two.

Tiago said Serie A is too tactical for him
while Poulsen is determined to stay to prove his worth.

It's easy to choose.

You might start to like the prick just like youve accustomed to secco . Someones gotta go.. but then who says melo's official yet I like the idea of keeping poulson simply because if worse comes to worse he can play as a centre back as he has done before. Whats the chances of zanetti spending quite a lot part of the season niggling with injuries again, though same may be said of camo for me personally his indispensible (yet). Giovinco well he aint going anywhere. Obvious choices to the norm would be Tiago and Poulson, they wanna stay so i reckon theres nothing worse than trying to force a player out only for him to end up staying at the club (because noone wants him or the contrary) throughout the season sulking. Were paying wages for sulks.

 

[Ahmed]

We should take Tiago to Spain for the Peace Cup and then well, you know, just uh, leave him there...get him really shit faced on mojitos and tequila, and run away when he passes out on his own vomit

.

5 Players for a 3man midfield are just to little. If we wanna step up with Inter, it is necessary to have good broadness of players. But i have no Idea who i would prefer to sell. Tiago and Poulsen flopped both, but i have the feeling, Poulsen is more ambitious and has the will to prove himself to the Coach, as opposed to Tiago.

Juve are about to secure Felipe Melo’s signature from Fiorentina for £21m, including Marco Marchionni.

However, this does not mean that Tiago Mendes will be sold after two disappointing campaigns in Turin.

“I don’t know how to end these rumours once and for all. Tiago is a player we consider to be off the market, despite some offers we have received.

“We really believe in him, especially with the three-man midfield that [Coach Ciro] Ferrara has in mind.”

does that answer u boys speculations? those are the words of secco

 

[Salvo]

why do i have a feeling we will start using

tiago--melo--sissoko?

 

[bianconero]

Tiago to go to Turkey
Zanetti could also be on his way too
Camo is needed as Juve have no width on the team

 

[Furia Ceca]

Camoranesi - Sissoko - Melo
- Diego -

Subs: Zanneti & Tiago

IMO Tiago played better than Poulsen, had 1 or 2 creative plays, but then again Poulsen can improve the coming season.

 

[Klin]

When you have 8 players including Brazzo for 3 positions in a 3-men-midfield is not healthy at all.

Sissoko - Melo - Marchisio --- When fit these are the 3 players that most probably are going to start.

Camoranesi - Zanetti - Poulsen --- These are the 3 most effective players on the bench for the midfield.

Then there are Brazzo and Tiago --- Brazzo is very flexible in the positions he can play which make him even more important than the portuguese. Tiago had already been 2 seasons with us, and yet he has to prove himself with the black & white jersey.

It is the most obvious and reasonable choice that the player who has to go is Tiago. Too bad Secco had already made up his mind about keeping him in the squad. :frown:

 

[bianconero]

Has Sissoko a planned break from Juve coming during the winter?

 

[Suns]

Ferrara could never and won't bench a healthy Camoranesi.

 

[Klin]

Ferrara could never and won't bench a healthy Camoranesi.

It will all depend on who's the most in form, the opposition we are facing and the importance of the match.
