This is the same club that had to loan Gagliardini for 2 years for their accounting sake just to escape FFP oversight for 27m deal, but media keep saying they will buy every superstar and spend between 300 to 400m just like that :lol:

Can't happen because of FFP, but papers will still write it. That's what the Milan media do, huge talk all the time.

Unless perhaps wife snatcher, Gabinpachina and Handanovic are being sold.

Griezmann, Sanchez, and James in that order.

Cavani is definitely not a superior finisher to Lewandowski or Suarez. Cavani on the wing < Dybala in our current formation. Cavani is gonna be thirty soon, and it would make absolutely no $#@!ing sense to sacrifice a superior talent in Dybala, who is seven years his junior, to bring Cavani here.
As usual a great answer, shows your great knowledge in this forum. On top of that people here should ask them self or pay attention why Cavani wanted to leave PSG last, answer is simple: he want to play CF not on the wing. So Cavani would never come to Juve for that reason. On top of this non of the 3 will play at Juve next year.
Dybala is by far our most talented player. For people who pay attention. Look his ball control , his vision and technique. We need players of that level, not more grinta, like so many here talk about, may be OK in Italy but in Europe it does not bring far. Players quality is the most important and we have only 4 of that level in midfield and front in the whole team. On top of that we need to build on the team we all ready have. In this forum I see 150 teams written down. Are you all coaches?
I think the moderators should find a special topic so everybody can put his Juventrus team, how unrealistic it may be.

I posted some stats few months ago of shots and goals per game for each of the top strikers in the game currently and Cavani was 1st while Higgy was 2nd in goals per shot. Cavani is underrated because he missed few easy chances in CL this season but every striker misses those sometimes
Ok, since you seem to love stats just as much as Mr. Rus. Allow me to put it in simple terms. If I want to win a game, I'm not bringing Cavani with me. Suarez, Lewandowski, and Higuain would all be ahead of him in the pecking order. Also, since you love basketball so much, if I was creating a football equivalent of NBA all first, second, and third teams, Cavani is unlikely to feature in any of them.

I would actually like Aguero here if we didnt have Gonzalo, he is a total killer striker, too bad about his niggling injuries, but his minute to goal ratio is pretty high for obvious reason. Just needs to be more healthy and probably more motivated in his game.

Cavani is currently top scorer in all of the top 5 leagues with 23 goals in 24 games. Hes also 2nd behind Messi in CL currently. Sorry but what you say just isnt true

Would Brady make it to your NBA team if it would be an NFL team and not football team?

Would Schlierenzauer make it in your NBA team if it was a FIS team and not a football team?

Zizinho stats do not mean a thing, they are mostly worthless. One league is very different than another league.
Cavani last season was poor because he played on the wing. This year he plays CF.
In the UK and Spain. Teams play offense and mostly less or no defense. They want to score more than the other team. In Italy everything is based on defense. The team who has the best defense wins.
You constantly compere apples with pears. Ok It is nice I honestly like to read some of your stats.
Yes to me B81, Osman and some others which I do not remember all their names even the German Nostradamus, in his case about German football, have in my book great football knowledge.

Stats support you, but I still wouldn't trust Cavani as my go to guy in attack. I simply don't like him, and Ligue 1 is not exactly a highly competitive league. Monaco are scoring 3 goals per game this season, and Nice are huge overachievers. Nonetheless, it's still PSGs title to lose, year in year out.

How about you just say that instead of invent BS arguments? Cavani is a top striker who is doing his job for PSG, he was scoring plenty as winger, and now he is scoring as frequently like no other, just like how he did in Napoli, now that he is back to being CF. Thats litterally enough, his performances and efficiency speaks for itself so trying to paint him as garbage makes no sense.


And btw, Ligue 1 is traditionally NOT a highscoring league, most of its top few scorers barely reach 20 goals when you look back past decade or more, winner tends to get just 20 at most, exceptions being Ibra and now Cavani, they have too much quality and punishing ability. But league in general its not uncommon for top scorers to finish around 16-18 or so.
