So then you doubt two things: his price tag AND his consistency when earlier you said you know he is good, you just don't think he is worth 30m.
Yeah, well, the reason for questioning the price tag has to be something, so baked into that is the fact that I don't believe he will offer us those type of guarantees.

So to clear things up: I think he's a very good player, but there are some elements to his game that makes me fearful of paying 30 million euros for him. I don't think he has produced one season yet which justifies that. You are right about clubs such as Real, PSG and City driving the prices up, though, and that this is normal. But I don't think those clubs are after him, and therefore I believe we should put in a substantial effort of lowering the price for JoJo, not just blindly accept the 30m. It might backfire.

I really like this kid and believe, at the right club, he'd do great things. I do agree with jem however that €30 million is a steep price. For that ammount of money you'd be getting someone who would be an immediate difference maker. Van Persie went for something around that price range if I'm not mistaken. If Juve triggered the release clause and Jojo came here I'd be elated. But we would'nt be getting fair value imo. €20-22 million is what I'd table max.

I'm in the same camp as bianconeri81 in wanting the board to blow cash on a definite game changer e.g Suarez, but in the same token I would'nt want Beppe spending money just for the sake of it alla Secco. Jovetic will eventually be worth his release clause, but at the moment I would'nt be jumping on triggering that clause just yet.

Maybe its because i havent seen that much of Jovetic, but i simply am NOT convinced that he is worth it from what i have seen. But still, im sure many of you have seen a lot more of him than i have and since you all fap over him then i guess he is worth paying 1 gaziliion dollars for, even though he hasnt proven shit yet.

Quag + Co-Ownership of Marrone + 20 Million :donedeal:

All we need to do is convince Quag to go to Fiorentina (we will need to get rid of at least 1 striker anyway), and for Fiorentina to take his wages onboard.

@Hustini Please :howler: Marrone is never going to be anything other than a decent option, unless we send him off somewhere a la Giovinco. I said, send him on a co-ownership, not a definitive sale.

30M is definitely too much for JoJo but that's the sort of prices you're looking at for top players these days. A lot has changed in the past decade or so in terms of competition where you're seeing stupid amounts splurged by the richer clubs in europe. That's cause alone for the high prices on players that don't necessarily merit them. Get used to it and pay up or don't buy these sorts of players (especially forwards).

Suarez at 40m>Jojo at 30m.

We should go all guns blazing if we even have a sniff of Luis Suarez. Even if he's the only player we buy coupled with some sales this mercato, it'll be a 10/10.

We can't afford Suarez' wages, 4.5 would be quite an upgrade for Jojo. That's why this transfer is plausible to begin with!

Clubs like Real, City and PSG are the reason why clubs are asking for such ludicrous amounts of money for their players.


Jovetic is not Amauri, Melo or Diego...not even close. Jovetic has done more than they all have and is only 23.

Diego was the best player in the Bundesliga for a couple of seasons. We broke the player and ruined his career.
