What a joke. Bonucci will never come close to that level.

Yeah I know, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be a good move.
I don't know how you can see it but he's seriously among the top CB's. And in couple of years I see him as top 3 CBs.

While I think Dusan really underestimates Bonucci (not surprising), I think you are overestimating BonBon yourself Rab. I won't swap him or sell him to bring in Vidic though.

Probably, but I think he's been Azzurri's best defender in the last 2years, and 2nd best to great Barzagli in the last 2 seasons as-well at Juve.

bonucci is amonst the top 20 center backs in the world as well as barzagli and chiellini. vidic can be a short term replacement for barzagli but why would he leave united.

Lol sorry as much as i like bonucci lets be serious here. He is good on his day but he is a confidence player, when hes bad he is awful he doesnt show the same level of consistency as barzagli or chiellini

To Bonuccis defense, he gets extremely unlucky from time to time.

His confidence has improved as has his consistency and performances.

I think Bonucci is underrated, when Pirlo gets marked or pressed during a game we have him for our deep ball distribution. Then again, David Luiz and Hummels are better when it comes to distributing the ball from deep.

But guys seriously, Vidic is better than Bonucci lol no two ways about it. Vidic was the best CB in Europe for a good number of year.

Vidic is a much more natural defender than Bonucci, that is for sure. Although he did seem to get done by Torres whenever he played against him.

The real issues aren't his ability but fitness, salary and role in the squad.

He is 31, world class and for free, what's there to argue? Yeah salary won't be cheap and we have several CBs already, but he is pretty much the ceiling for modern defenders so no reason to pass up on him.
