I thought Spinazzola is a LB while Caldara and Chiellini can play there when needed..
Spinazzola has a serious knee injury and probably won't be fit until the second half of the season. I really doubt that we'd play either Caldara or Chiellini there.

MDS is probably the most likely option as a backup (with Cancelo/Cuadrado on the right) but is not ideal and with his fitness it is risky. Asamoah was perfect as a backup.

Your thoughts seems to be right but Spinazzola will be out at least 6 months due to a meniscus surgery.Then match fitness issues...in one word don't count on Spina for at least first half of the season.And Caldara and Chiellini aren't left backs.

Yes he was perfect the second half of the season.I really feel sorry that he left us.

They arent but they could play there if needed..
I guess with MDS also in our team we are covered but I dont think Cancelo will be our only fullback we get - We dont want to believe it but Darmian will probably join as well

Not impressed by Darmian at all.Maybe for maximum 15 mil .he is worth for that but not a penny more,like MU asking price of 20 mil.

Chiellini shouldn't be considered for an LB position; he's almost 34 and played LB like 15 years ago...MDS will be a backup for LB.
Thats not for us to decide...

No one here is a Darmian die hard fan... but it seems like the club really want him...

Juventus in for Godin

Juventus are prepared to pay the €20m release clause for Atletico Madrid defender Diego Godin if Medhi Benatia leaves, it’s reported.

According to Mediaset Premium, the Bianconeri have set their sights firmly on the 32-year-old Uruguay international centre-back.

His contract with Atleti is due to expire next summer and he has been at the club since 2010.


Benatia has been linked with Arsenal and Olympique Marseille after his World Cup performances for Morocco.

It would be a surprise for Juve to pay the full €20m for a player who is, after all, 32 years old with only 12 months left to run on his contract.

Its called a market opportunity. Lozano has got that Juve grinta. If Allegri uses MM17 as our main striker, we better have two wingers who can play direct. And between martial and chucky, i'd rather have chucky. Hear hes got a 35mil clause.

Juventus were serious about Dembele up until a few days ago. The player is much appreciated by the management, Allegri in particular. In the last few hours his agents have been told Juve's priorities lie elsewhere. Khedira remaining has also changed things. [Romano]
