Indeed. Good work, Moggi and everyone else involved in making this deal a reality. Sagnol is without a doubt an upgrade from Zebina, Birindelli, Pessotto, Balzaretti and Blasi.
Sagnol and Zebina both didn`t impress me. From what I`ve seen they are two medicore players and we should look for better players
also we should be looking for a new CB and I don`t want Barzagli as I see him as the new Legro

I disagree. Sagnol is an excellent right back with attacking capabilities as well as defensive skills. He was very good for Bayern when we played them earlier this season in the CL and has been a consistent performer for a long time now. He's also a regular for the French national team. Zebina on the other hand had a pretty good debut season in Turin but he has struggled with injuries this term and wants a pay rise so I would be willing to let him go.
A lot of people have been saying that Barzagli might be another Legrottaglie. That is IMO an unfair assessment of a promising young defender. Legrottaglie had one good season before coming to Juventus where he flopped but Barzagli has been a solid player for two or three seasons now. He isn't fully proven yet but he isn't a one hit wonder a la Legro either.
