Meh, he's mediocre.

He's not mediocre, he'd start for nearly every Serie A club, but I dont want him to be Gigi's eventual replacement.

Marotta in one interview earlier confirmed that Leali is Buffon's heir.

He's made terrible blunders almost every time I've seen him play.

The best example is the first Sevilla game. Just atrocious.

Name a keeper that hasn't made a blunder in his career...they all do, and they are obviously singled it out for (unfairly) compared to players in other positions.

He is a good keeper.

Whenever I mention him I just remember that Pirlo free kick against purple rats last year (not this one) when we won 1-0 .Neto was keeper.

That's true and the same goes for defenders, but you do have players who have all the ability in the world yet make blunders on a very regular basis. I think about David Luiz, Philippe Mexes or our very own Martin Caceres for example.

Romulo, job done.

When he arrives at London.....

To have a medical with Arsenal.

 

[JuveJay]

Decent carp, looks about 18-20lb.

Romulo's most important contribution to Juventus.

It really comes down to whether the club see him as a backup to Gigi or the heir/understudy. I think it's the former.

We were quite heavily linked with Trapp a season or two ago, wonder where that deal disappeared. He would probably make for a better no.2 understudy than Neto. Can't really see Neto being an eventual replacement to Gigi but more like a solid and very reliable no.2 backup - be it in the league or CL.

If Neto is happy to be Juventus' back-up keeper for the foreseeable future, I'm happy with that. We'd have (again) an extremely solid and capable keeper as back-up whenever our number 1 is unavailable. Better than relying on the likes of Nonno Chimenti.

True, but I would count in Neto being ok with being No.2. Being about 25 and signing for a team where Gigi plays, knowing full well that the master keepers agenda is to play for at least another 3-4 years, I don't think he is imagining he would be starter any time soon. Unless of course, the club plan to start using Gigi a little more sparingly two years down the line.

 

[JuveJay]

He probably thinks Gigi is going to cop it in 1-2 years, silly rabbit.

I think the plan is to use him now as a back-up, and then as a transitional keeper paired with a young prospect until said prospect matures into a true starter.
