Philippe "L'ENCULÉ" Mexes - CB - Roma (8 Viewers)

[The Curr]

Samuel has been a first rate defender in Serie A for years.

He has but he isn't as good as Cannavaro was.

Still my point was Inter played very defensivley last season, but looks like only Lucio and Samuel take all the credit in your view.

Only very few defenders ever have been as good as Cannavaro was for a couple of years, Curr.

I wouldn't say they were very defensive.

True.

Where did I say that?

You're right, you mentioned CB's. But still I think Inter CB's look good becuase of their DM's and wing backs. just my opinion.

 

[Red]

The whole team were a great defensive unit.

The CBs, especially Samuel, were exceptional, though.

Why would we sign Mexes if we have Bonucci? Having Bonucci or Mexes as benchwarmers is a waste of talent/money. Lets give Bonucci the chance to develop next to Chiellini and sign someone who'll be alright with the bench. If we end up signing Mexes then I don't understand why we signed Bonucci.

Because then we would actually have some quality in depth in our defense.

With the rate we pick up injuries whichever CB ends up being 3rd choice will not be rotting away on the bench anyway.

Maybe because Chiellini is gonna be for sale?
Despite I'm 100% against that idea and that hypothesis is silly per se, it could be the scenario.

Yes they will. One of these guys is obviously going to spend a huge amount of time on the bench. I don't think Mexes wants to move from Roma's bench to sit on ours and I certainly don't think we want this kind of luxury on the bench. As for Bonucci, we've just spent around 15 million for him and he's at a stage in his career where he needs to play every week to develop.

Juve aren't investing in the defence.

Juve are investing too much in the defence.

Please stop. I'm just trying to understand this from the players perspective.

Why? Our bench must be really cozy if Gio has stayed this long.

Seriously, just bunch of whiners really.

 

[Salvatore]

There's a huge difference between the bench at Juventus and the bench at friggin Roma.

World football legends found themselves stuck on the bench at Juventus.

Sadly our bench is currently short on legends.

You're right. Lets just have two good CB's and call it a day. If one of them gets injured, just play three at the back.
