Bla bla bla.....bunch of BS as usual here....so let's start with a set of questions,answer as simple as you can....
Who scored? Amauri or Treze?
Who scored twice?
Whose team won?
If this is the way that you judge things, the i am sorry for you narrowed mind mentality and i see there is nothing else to discuss with you...
(BS??
as usual??? ) That means that you actually were here and read some of my previous post match reports??
Amauri would get more chances with better players around him dude. Just think he had like 2 chances tonight and scored 2 goals. Look how many chances our strikers got today.. alot
They said exactly the same thing for Gila in Milan, luckily for them, Gila is still very young...
Amauri can dribble, pass, shoot, head and has some creativity. Why wouldn't we want him in our team.
Juve will not sell Giovinco to Palermo.. that i am positive of. At mest they might loan him there next season to develop further if they don't think he is ready to be one of our main creative forces. I could see us using Palla, Nocerino, Volpato, De Ceglie or maby Marchisio .. but not Giovinco .. not for a permanent transfer.
As for Amauri he is better than Iaquinta and Palladino. Del Piero will probably only play one game a week because he picks up injuries and loses form when played too much do I would expect Amauri to partner Trez or Iaquinta in every other game we play. Or we could see a trident of Amauri- Trez- DP ..
But I have always thought Amauri was a great player. I questioned his form before this game but i was proved wrong. He is clearly back to his best and will be a great asset to our strike force next season. If we can sign him.
And what kind of example is Iaquinta and Toni? they both played once they matures (Toni very late) but both have proven themselves over time and are still doing good. Toni is playing well for Munich and broke records for Fiorentina while Iaquinta is doing great here considering he is not even a starter. I think it is foolish to say that Amauri is too old. He has been playing very well for the last 2 years and is at his peak now... perfect time to bring him in to compete for titles. He has experience, has refined his craft, has talent and still has his fitness.
Amauri wont single handedly help us resolve our creative problems but that is not expected of him. Goals are his main job. As we saw today he can create chances for himself and does have some creative flare but with DP being 34 next season we will need to use him very sparingly. Trez is on the wrong side of 30 as well so unless you want to play DP-Trez in the CL against say Man Utd .. then 3 days later player them again against Inter when they will be tired, over worked and risking injury or go with Palla - Iaquinta for one big game and DP-Trez or whatever for the next. We need to buy another good striker. Amauri is our guy.
He is hungry, talented, in shape, serie A experience and will be a very valuable player.
I agree that Amauri is better than the current Palla, slightly better than Iaquinta and even (probably) more effective than next year's (older) DP.
Amauri would certainly add smth to our team, i rate him as a player and i respect him.I even bought him for PES 2008 team
As a Juve fan i have no problems with him and i wish we had him or even better strikers in our team, like Drogba and Henry.
BUT, strikers is not our fcken priority and Amauri despite being good,
he is seriously over-priced and most important UNPROVEN, it is easily to shine in a team like Palermo, as easily it was for Iaquinta to shine in Udinese and for Gila to shine in Parma, but when these players come to a bigger team, they cant come up with raising difficulties and the challenging moments. And even if they do, they are not as good and as shiny as they were with their previous, smaller team.
Very very few players, get through this level and prove them selves in great teams, like Juve, however you like at it, signing Amauri is a great risk and right now, we dont have the luxuri of taking that risk.
You people ignore that our team is crippled, we dont even have a full,decent, first eleven team and we are forced to use guys like Molinaro, Nocerino and Grygera,
we depend on the nearly retired Neddy to win almost every game for us and we rarely ever get to win a game without him making the difference on the pitch.
We have absolutely no cover in some position (like the LB) and zero reliability back up solution, players like Andrade, Marchionni and Zebina, that would supposedly step in when needed, are never available due to injuries!
These are real problems and our number priorities, is to fix them before proceed to further fine tunings upfront!!
We still have one of the best attacks in serie A and the group of our attackers is the least problem we have, those guys can handle the situation, better than the rest of our lines. They proved that if they are served properly, they can deliver.
We need to fix our real problems and our financial situation barely allows to do that, let alone spend a real fortune on Amauri.
Amauri wont solve any of our problems in defense, he wont solve our creativity problems either, as a Juve fan, i also hope that there is a magic solution out there that would make our team fly. But Amauri isnt the answer to our question,
our faulty material and tactics are.
IF we resolve all of our real problems first, then its ok to bring secondary targets as Amauri, Robinho, Crouch, Di Michele, Adriano etc etc
Another great issue is, that our managers are a bunch of clueless, pathetic noobs, that have absolutely no idea, how to run a bif club like Juventus.
We need to make a big strategic plan and stick with out.
Juventus is severely injured, we need to heal up fast and cover the lost ground,
but instead they keep make some mistakes and repeat them.
Almost every single transfer we made in the post Moggi era, was proved to be a failure in the end. If we take a look to Andrade, Almiro and Tiago, players that were supposed to form up a new backbone and help us build the Juve of the future, we will understand how awfully wrong, our managers really were, luckily for us, some of our older champions are still present and they are still good enough to make the difference but they wont last forever and the investments made by the Agnelli family wont last forever too, if we keep being unwise and waste all of our transfer budget like we did this year, we will never grow up powerful again. A solid squad isnt build with a player, but with a solid team, with good players in every position.
We cant have Molinaro, Legro and Grygera in the defense and hope that Amauri will score more goals than they will concede, ffs we are playing in Europe next year!!! And what happen if Neddy retires or gets injured???
And one last thing referring to our youngsters. Juve never really had to depend on youngsters, most of the times they were proved to be "not good enough" for our senior team and we were always powerful and wealthy enough to buy the most promising material of other teams.
BUT thing have changed now, we are not as wealthy and powerful anymore and our future depends to our youngster more, then every other time.
Luckily we have a very good crop growing up and it seems that Criscito, Giovinco, De Ceglie and Marchisio will become players, good enough to play in every Italian team and they will surely find their way in the NT. Ihave seen those players many times and serie b, we had the times to see them play side by side with our current champions, De Ceglie and Marchisio are very very promising players and they happen to play in places that we are going to have enhanced. Since we offload Olivera, Almiron and probably sent away Nocerino and Tiago too, we are destined to fill up our roster with a destined sub, Marchisio is ideal for the job, he is young and promising, he cant be a sub that wont complain and grow good enough to become a starter as Zanetti grows older and most important, he is free. Why would we waste such a talent that we so desperately need? Why would create one more hole in our team to fix a non broken issue??
De Ceglie is also a very very useful all around tool, he can cover positions in our midfield and in our great weakness, the lest flank. He is also the definition of the perfect back up solution for those places and a very hot future prospect. These guys happen to be our most promising material, among with Giovinco and they have grown enough that are already able to help us. We really need those players now, more than every other time, even if we strengthen those players, we need that depth to fight in 3 fronts.
To sign a 4 SS is mostly unwise and unnecessary, give away our future and prospect and half of our next summer transfer among would be a great strategical and tactical mistake, that would lead to further problems and no way out routes.
Why would we sacrifice all this for the 28 year old Amauri,
because he
might quickly adapt and help our team,just a bit more efficient and a couple of years more, than DP and Iaquinta...
This are the reasons i dont want Amauri and any other overpriced SS of his range and age in our team now, not that i dont rate him.
I am afraid that our incompetent managers and coach, might actually consider that Amauri can be a quick fix and we wont have to invest properly to buy good enough players for every position we suffer and keep those idiotic formations, CR comes up with, hoping that Amauri will be more efficient than our desperate long balls and absolutely no attacking plans. Well he wont, Amauri disappeared in the second half, when his team lost the control the control of the game, he didnt create any chances all by himself as you said, he only used the superiority of his team to score 2 magnificent goals that Trezequet, DP and Iaquinta had scored in different cases, just because he scored 2 goals for Palermo, doesnt mean that he could score 2 more goals for us if he was in our side
and if Palermo had Iaquinta and the later would score those 2 goals, we would still lose the game, i m confident the majority of Juventuz members are smarter and they have seen enough to go beyond this mentality(unlike barkuss)...
