So what if he scores tons of goals in LaLiga? They need him in Champions League. He's a choker and has a shit attitude, they won't pay that much for him.
I haven't seen much choking over the years from Lewa and his overall record in europe isn't exactly bad with 96 matches played, 52 goals and 20 assists.

And how has he a shitty attitude? He's been a role model professional. Not even when Dortmund forced him to stay did he fuck up on purpose. Iirc he's always stated that Football is just a job for him, nothing else, which i find to be rather refreshing. Bayern knew that when they signed him.

Maybe i'm wrong, but you already sound a little butthurt now that he might leave.

Benatia is expected to leave Juventus in the summer. Boateng & Romagnoli are the main targets to replace him, according to Several reports.
:inter:

Would be such a InDa signing.

A Constantly injured player who relies heavily on his physics to make up for bad positioning. No thanks.

Agreed. Just because he doesn't have tattoos, doesn't need to make up for his mistakes with some last resort tackles, doesn't get booked he's worse than Romagnoli and on his way out of Juve :sergio:. If anything he's much more experienced and has more games at top level than Roma and Caldara combined.

:howler: Dumpian and Zola's Spinach as wingback options is a disgusting and laughable notion.

Italian "talent" is atrociously poor at present. This is easily one of the worst generations when it comes to actual talent, and somehow some of you want to pad the team with over-rated mediocre Serie A $#@!stains.
No, it isn't. Some guys are just coming up now when Conte should've started this generation change.

Perin, Donnarumma

Conti, Florenzi, Darmian, De Sciglio, Spinazzola, Emerson

Bonucci, Caldara, Rugani, Romagnoli

Verratti, Jorginho, Pellegrini, Cristante, Barella, Mandragora, Florenzi can also play in the middle

Bernardeschi, Orsolini, Chiesa, Insigne, Verdi, Politano

Belotti, Immobile, Balotelli, Zaza
...............................................................................................................................................
-----------Perin

Conti-Bonucci-Caldara-Emerson

Verratti-Jorginho-Pellegrini

Bernardeschi-Belotti-Insigne

This team with Conte, Allegri, Spalletti or EDF would be in semi-final at least.

Nothing. His attitude both on and off the pitch is something you don't want to have at your club. He was shit against Sevilla in both legs and also against Madrid. He didn't help us at all. I'd be happy if we can sell him for big price and bring someone who actually cares.

Boateng?! Where has this came from?!

FI links us with Gelson Martins
I dont think he will improve us but just be another Cuadrado..
His release clause is 60m
For that sum I rather take Chiesa

Semis of what exactly? Euros? Perhaps? World Cup? No chance!

You are seriously over-rating this generation. Spain, France, Germany, and potentially even Holland have much better youngsters. I'm not even going to mention the likes of Brazil or Argentina either.

What's wrong with his attitude then?

That said, your entire team has been shite against Sevilla and Lewa's CL record speaks for itself. Can't believe i'm going full @piotrr

Did you see where Conte got with what last Euro?

They can have 100x better youngsters, Italy's strength has always been in the collective and team play and spirit. I didn't say this is the greatest talent they ever had but they're still very good players and with the right coach they can go far.

Well, in Emre Can's case, it started one season ago. Where are we now regarding that? Still haven't sign him.
Not a year ago, only in January and we probably have an agreement for some time. Us not knowing anything officialy doesn't mean there are no deals done.

He thinks he's the best in the world. He wants every ball, complains a lot like last year when he finished second to Auba as Bundesliga topscorer. I'd say it's normal for striker, but in this case it's not.

But they also used to have a insanlely talented squad in the past :p

As you said, it's still a good team that can go really far if things go well, but imo the other big nations are currently clearly superior to what italy can field.

Yeah, there's no doubt about that, especially Spain and France. My initial comment was about the statement this is the worst Italy ever or something.

IMO Italy from 2008/09 until 2012 Euro was far worse. There were some big names but they were getting older and no youngsters were coming through.

Now I see many players who can be really, really good like Barella, Emerson, Pellegrini, Berna, Chiesa, Belotti can still come through IMO etc. I would love any of them at Juve.

Ruga is not stronger but he is no less good. These two average players who do not have the level to be starter at Juve.
They have Atalanta's level no more.
How can romagnoli be considered good enough to start for juve replacing benatia who has been so crucial for the juve defence
