people here are very funny, giving marotta too much credits, not wanting jovetic, not wanting higuain, want to stick with average 3-5-2... :lol: I wonder if we are all following and watching the same team here :lol:

jovetic > vucinic, I can tell this from the way he moves which are captured and uploaded to youtube... the difference is that much.

is this a risky move due to jovetic's injury potential? yes sure, but look at robben for example, at very least he is able to lift teams to CL finals, and WC finals something diamanti, vucinic, matri, quaq, giovinco and the likes can do; jovetic is at very least closer to robben group of people than the later group.

Jovetic will never reach the wc finals. While i agree with Jovetic is better than Vucinic, I dont necessarily think we are getting Jovetic to replace Vucinic.

All of those you mentioned are shaped WC players who cost God knows how much. Suarez would cost at least 40-50mln while his wages would be twice as much. Rooney is not really a SS like others.
So you're telling me we're not getting a world class player? Then why the hype in here and why the hefty price tag?



It's why you're wrong. You probably watched him only against us.

Stats don't mean anything, they just hide too much. This season Giovinco had very good stats, yet he was shit.
If you're a great player then stats come by themselves(speaking mostly of forwards). Stats prove your productivity and how well your end product is. If you're a great player which means that the game comes much easier for you, then at the end of the season the stats will naturally be there. There is a reason why all the top forwards usually fill up their stat sheet.

He didn't even change after that injury. He also kept scoring, was just his recent form.
He was a complete player before his injury imo.

You're assuming here that someone else is giving Conte the players, without asking for his opinion. What if it's Conte who's pushing for a certain player, in this case Jovetic? So far we get some indirect signs that Conte is absolutely loving this player.
Today's Tuttosport claims that Tevez is an easier target, but Conte wants Jovetic (http://www.calciomercato.com/prima-...ile-da-prendere-ma-conte-vuole-jovetic-154250)
It was allegedly Conte who wanted Isla as well. That didn't turn out quite as good as we hoped.

Why do you keep ignore my posts when I point out we're not gonna pay 30mln for him?

And yes, I'm telling you we're not gonna sign Suarez, Rooney, Ibrahimovic.

So you actually think Giovinco is a great player and had a great season?

Of course, because Conte will also make mistakes. But what do you suggest us to do if Conte wants player X and the named player is within our reach? What if Conte does prefer Jovetic to Tevez, even if the latter is an easier target?

Then why are people overrating the shit outta him?

The 30m price tag is what we're reading about and what I'm going with right now. If we get him for 20m then that's completely different.

What is the point with the Giovinco question, I don't get it? Do you think he had a great season statistically because he didn't. He had 11 goals and 6 assists which isn't that astonishing. And the funny thing is that Jovetic only had 3 more goals in a team where he's the clear cut #1 option. Let's compare Jovetic to the level of players we actually need for this team.

And it's not a fluke season or anything, Jovetic hasn't elevated his game to prove all the hype. We got more data than this season to go by. Jovetic the last few years has had:

13 goals 5 assists
14 goals 3 assists
10 goals 8 assists(CL+league)

So what about that Balotelli kid? Only half a year younger than Jovetic. Do his stats suggest that he's world class?

Balotelli was benched most of the time for City. And in Milan he has scored almost as many goals in 6 months as Jovetic scored in a whole year.

Can't believe there is some crazy people who wouldn't love to have him here, or don't even rate him at all.

I certainly don't think he's worth €30M (at this point in time anywy), but here is a player who is proven in Serie A, young, creative,talented and would be a perfect player to compliment a true number 9 (Llorente) He has all the tools to be a huge success for us and become a mainstay in our starting lineup for years to come.
