Summer mercato 2021-22 (109 Viewers)

Morata is better than Icardi everywhere. Heck, even mentally and we know Morata can be a child sometimes.

Homerism gone too far. Morata is better then Icardi in most things except what's most crucial. Consistently scoring 20+ goals per season for his team.



If Icardi was in Chelsea or Atletico he would still most likely be their main nr 9 and not discarded like an underwhelming bad habit.



I cant stand Icardi, but he is a consistent top scorer type nr 9 when he plays full seasons. While Morata struggles to cement his place in teams, and lacks in the area of consistently scoring throughout whole season to help carry his teams.

True, Icardi is a much more reliable scorer than Morata. Fuck him though

Icardi has scored 25+ goals in almost every season with Inter bar his final season where he was sent to the stands for that spat with Spalletti.

Morata has never scored 25 goals in a season in his entire career.

When Morata is truly up for it, I prefer him to Icardi. I just think he brings his teammates into the game better and he counters better. When he's rolling on the ground or sulking, forget it.

This is the consistency issue in nutshell. He has to be up for it. He cant deliver for you with regularity. Icardi won top scorer with 29 goals and proved he can deliver to you regularly, with few other seasons of 20+ goals and so on.


Morata is better with the ball and more of a counter threat, but finishing and around the box its Icardi easily.

Look Im not disagreeing about Morata better than Icardi in almost everything but there is one super important element that Icardi is way better and that's finishing.
If we want to be a serious team we need 2 things in terms of attack - one is to create and the second is to finish what we have created.
Morata ticks the first for his role but he is definitely not a goalscorer.
Icardi ticks the second one but he doesnt tick the first one and considering he is a striker I think it is more important to score than to be able to assist.

Im not saying I want Icardi as I want others way more than him but if we do get him - he will be ahead of Morata for the CF role.

Or in other words what Osman said..

It also depends on what other players are in your team. If you pick a striker to play with a goal scoring winger like Salah in a team that counters, maybe you pick Morata. If you need a striker to play in tons of possession with a beast like KDB behind him, like Man City, maybe you pick Icardi.

Of course at Juventus we don't know what style we're playing so might as well pick Iaquinta.

Lets have a nr 9 that score alot of goals and leads the attack.



Worry about the rest when we have the luxury to do so. For now Morata is not that player and we shouldn't pretend he is.

Zaniolo will return from injury next month. Im wondering what his recovery will be and with the Euro’s in sight of course. Value decreased a lot probably.

Chiesa - Morata - Dybala/Kulu
Locatelli - Arthur - Zaniolo​

Rumors were so strong last year

Locatelli has to play regista no more four metre passes from Arthur

 

[K.O.]

lol at this Tuz obsession with Locatelli. You are in for a rude awakening if we sign him.

The same thing was said about Chiesa and we can attempt a swap deal between Kulusevski Locatelli

 

[K.O.]

The same thing was said about Chiesa

Not me. I've seen Chiesa play and always knew he's a class player, I just thought the 60m fee was a bit excessive. I also saw Locatelli and know he's absolutely not the answer. Don't get me wrong, he's good but I put him on par with Rabiot if not lower.

I can't think of anyone else but this deal will get done as Juve are in pole position for him

 

[Nedved96]

We need midfielders who can retain possession under pressure. This is an area where we are sorely lacking

With Bentancur and Rabiot, every time we are up against a high intensity team we know exactly what to expect from these two. Endless turnovers and no control of the game.

Arthur has shown us exactly what we are missing with his composure. However, ball retention is his only strength and he has too many serious flaws in the other parts of his game.

Locatelli provides athleticism, defensive stability and good ball retention. Aouar and De Paul provide ball retention with penetration in the final third. That is what we need.

 

[KirilovBG]

Locatelli is good but we need UCL proven midfields or we are gonna watch yesterday's match all over again

 

[AFL_ITALIA]

The best part is him benching De Paul for McKennie

Locatelli is meant to be part of a better whole, where we would ideally still have at least one more quality midfield purchase. He's still a great player, I'd take him 10 times out of 10 over Rabiot.

Sure..send us the worlds best from bayern and real but let's be more realistic. We need more than one midfielder so locatelli at 40m or 50m is more realistic than us trying to land us players from the worlds best clubs.

Further to nedved96s comments on Arthur...we look a lot more composed and controlled when he is on the field. Add locatelli to the mix and we suddenly have a solid midfield. I also have no doubt if bentancur or rabiot played with both Arthur and locatelli in midfield they would perform a lot better as well.

 

[Lion]

Jesus christ so many of you obsessed over locatelli and who will lead attack when the focus should be on getting Fabian to lead the midfield.

Not the answer I can understand but he is much better than Rabiot...
