Should Marotta be sacked?

  • Yes - his signings are an embarrassment to the club

  • No - he just got us to the Scudetto and we should see where that takes us

  • WTF - When did we suddenly inherit aching ladyparts like interisti?

And please Nick, stop with BS about how teams aren't willing to sell.

You come with a good offer, teams will listen and eventually will sell in these hard times. Arsenal sold their best player to Man U. Milan sold Zlatan to PSG...

Plenty of good strikers are available, and we end up with freaking Bendtner, The laughing stock of all strikers. Marotta is a fucking disgrace, last year he was running to sign Andreolli on the last day of the transfer and now he signs Bendtner and tell us all how we don't need a striker.

I miss Moggi.
Clubs weren't keen on selling. They would only listen to mega-offers which Juventus cannot afford.

What.did.you.want.Marotta.to.do!?

Why did he buy Pazienza, Martinez, Ziegler in first place :lol:
Pazienza was decent, he's sold thought.
Ziegler was Del Neri's pick.
Martinez is just a fail. No justifying that.

Martinez, Traore, Rinaudo, Motta, Elia, Pacienza, Ziegler, Padoin...

:howler:
You're being biased.

Why don't you list at the players Marotta did sign, that won us the Scudetto? Put us back into the CL? Won us the Super cup? Made us have an unbeaten season?

No DS is perfect.

I wouldn't fire him. I'd be fine with renewing. It's not very Juve-like to get rid of a SD who helped you get 1st place. We're not Madrid, Chelsea, or PSG and hopefully never are.

What big striker other than RvP moved this year? No one. And the amount which United paid was ridiculous imo. I wouldn't have paid that in a million years unless we sold someone like Zidane for double that. Not to mention Serie A is not appealing at all as has already been mentioned a thousand times and we also don't have the luxury of giving players exorbitant wages to negate that fact. So yeah, I can't really blame him that much.
god fucking damn it, how dare you bring sense into this topic !

Saw what potential? You think Marotta sees a potential of 20 goals in Bendtner? Nobody sees that or else he would not have been going to Siena. And I don't even think Marotta signed Bendtner to be a starter.
I don't know, perhaps he does. Bendtner's biggest problem is his attitude, he's actually not that bad.

I don't like this signing at all, though.

I gotta say, though, I'd rather rely on a great midfield that scores goals among them regularly over a lone, prolific striker who defenders can double-team more easily and would cost us a buttload more of cash.

He should not do interviews, because he makes himself look silly. Baring being a PR disaster, I don't mind him.
This is actually the only reason I hate him.

It's like someone asking you what color would you want your Ferrari to be as a gift for your bday, only to give you a Golf 3.

lavezzi wanted to leave. martinez wanted to leave and bayern met his insane clause. madrid, bayern, and man utd can afford to gamble with money due the nature of thier finances.


you need to deal with the fact that we alsmot never spend insnae amounts of money on such a player. we barely do, and juve has almsot always been more about looking for bargains. yes, even in the precious moggi era.

how many signgins from moggi's last 5 years with juve do you remember costing more than 30 million hmmm? and remeber why we were able to sign them in the first place.
Llorente wanted to leave, so did Jojo and i'm sure plenty of other players are eager to leave.

In Moggi's era, we never needed the money, In Marotta's tenure we are top3 spenders in Europe.

This year was the time to get the " Plasma " and what did we get fucking bendtner.

How can you explain that we spent 18 mil on a player who plays in a position we have the most depth and he didn't upgrade the position we are the weakest in ???

Do I sense a lenient attitude towards Marotta and his strategy?

It kinda is though. If Bendtner scores 20 goals, its all Conte because Bendtner has never been a 20 goals kinda striker and if he did score 20 then that would have to be because of the fantastic coaching of Conte and his teammates? Not Marotta, its not like Marotta thought "Hey, Bendtner will score 20 goals.. I can see it".
such a simple way to look at it!

how about this then, if bendtner scores 20 goals, it's all conte for getting the effort out of him, but wouldn't you say great job conte for signing a 20+ goal scorer for 6 million.

isn't this why the fact that barzagli cost 500k great? or vidal for 9m when he is worth 40m now. or litch for 11m when he is worth 20 now.

Bilbao's president demanded 36M (his buyout clause) for Llorente. Fuck no.
Fiorentina rejected our 30M bid. Fuck them.

We whine about signing Asamoah.

What happened if Marchisio or Vidal gets injured this year? Who would we replace them with?
Replace them with Van Persie.

Well, if you're not going to bother reading any of the posts then there's just no point in continuing this discussion with you.

We do not have the money to splash on one target. We spent close to 40m on the Udine couple, but their potential resale value is double that and we're talking about TWO PLAYERS. And we even co-owned them to pay the rest of it next year, because we're tight with cash. We're investing in the youth, because we can't compete with wages nor transferfigurres with the top clubs. That's just the reality, and our current management is doing a great job at reaction to it.

Honestly, as much as I love DP, my hat is off to Marotta for not renewing it and yanking his chain and the chain of all fans for another season as we watch an aging player slowly come apart. :cry:
Sure. This isn't about Alex though, its about who we had planned to have in his place going into the CL. Bendtner is a failure. We have weakened the one department if the team that had to take it up a notch., if anything.


Italian football was the place to be. He had it easy, the money and prestige was in Italy at that time.
He still paid big money for quality. Never got anyone cheap. And his three biggest buys came from within Italy at the time. Moral: you're going to have to pay if you're after a certain calibre of player. It should be relatively easy for Madrid to lure a player form Tottenham. But its not, they have to pay through their noses. The point remains, had we stayed focus in our pursuit of one pool of players for the entire summer, we would've had the team we had one and thhe striker, without paying exorbitant wages, only a slightly higher transfer fee, in the region of what we did for JoJo on Monday.
