Fausto Rossi and Marrone are both crap. We gave Marrone more than enough chances. None of these loaned and co-owned youngsters have impressed enough to even be back-ups at Juve. The chances of these kids out of our academy coming good is always exceptionally slim. The same deal with any clubs academy, though some teams do a little better in this regard, especially teams that don't have to worry so much about competing at the highest level.

If we get a Marchisio-type player out of our academy every few years, I'd be more than happy.
I don't know.....I think Barcelona has a pretty good youth system. Man U used to (Beckham, Giggs, Nevilles (Paul & Gary), and Scholes) - and remember (in a Cockny British accent): Paul Scholes Scores Goals

would you say Witsel is better as a box to box than as a holding midfielder or AM? in that case, we seriously dont need him. we need someone to rotate with Marchisio (Khedira can do it, but he is also better at btb and should normally start there when fit) and /or an AM. at btb we have more than enough options
Correct, better B2B then AM so no need for him unless we sell PP.

Silva or Nasri, one would assume.

If you are under the premise that Wolfsburg suddenly goes for Draxler, which could be one of the reasons as to why this has dragged on as it has. Schalke just waiting for someone else to legitimately enter the race.
It is said that Wolfsburg want Praet or Ziyech, are there rumours that they want Draxler now that De Bruyne is gone?
OK assuming no more transfers, this would be my Champions League squad:

1 Buffon
2. Neto
3. Lichsteiner
4. Caceres
5. Barzagli
6. Bonucci
7. Chiellini
8. Rugani
9. Evra
10. Sandro
11. Marchisio
12. Pogba
13. Khedira
14. Pereyra
15. Asamoah
16. Padoin
17. Cuadrado
18. Sturaro
19. Dybala
20. Morata
21. Mandzukic
22. Coman
23. Primavera goalkeeper?
24. Primavera midfielder? (Vitale?)
25. Primavera striker?

So basically, no Rubinho, no Isla and no Zaza.

Its actually pretty sad that we only have 1 home grown player. We really need a better primavera system.
Aren't Chiellini and Buffon considered HG yet?

If Juve fail to get Draxler then they could spend big on a CM: the dream is Gundogan & Juve's willing to spend 30m but BVB won't sell. #Gds

Less than 5 days to go before the window closes...who is it gonna be...Draxler,Goetze,Gundogan,Calhonaglu,Isco,Oscar,Pastore,Sneijder,Bernardo Silva,
none of the above. silva is a winger and we just bought cuadrado. sneijder is 31, we're not buying too much players of his age. the others are out of our reach or too risky i guess.

If Zaza is leaving, then it's a 433 100%.
is zaza so important that the entire team will play depending whether he's in the squad? i'm not sure about it.

If we need a DM /CM choice that's easy to get and would be cheap /easy to loan. Should consider Alex Song, both box to box and holding Mid, very good Passer, technical capabilities, strong and decently capable ballwinner. Much rather him then Witsel. He impressed me alot in basic impact whenever I saw him for West Ham.


Only issue is he has a small injury and recovering, owned by Barca and not officially loaned back to West Ham again I think. Would ideal, complete as they come CM, DM that has excellent regista capabilities.

We are loaning, co-owning, selling left and right players that could easily be a decent back ups. We are not giving chance to youngsters. It's annoying. :(

Examples: Fausto Rossi, Mattielo, Marrone, Ariaudo, Mirante
Not a single one of those is good enough for Juventus.

You can add Audero, Vitale and Clemenza as the last three.
