    I could see the scum of the earth go after Mexès so that would be one less contender for Ranocchia and Kjaer. Zamparini value for Kjaer is BS for me, I'm pretty sure an EPL team could offer more so that leaves us with Ranocchia. Could the merdazzurri want him? They could if they want to replace Materazzi and leave us with Barzagli or something. :scared:

    Well,to me Ranocchia is quality,despite his age and lack of experience on the highest level.I wouldn't mind Bocchetti either,anybody who knows me will tell you I've always been a fan of him.

    Kjaer on the other side didn't fully convince me yet,from what I've seen.

    I can't help you with the names,I have trouble finding decent defenders myself:D

    From Serie A I like Bocchetti,Ranocchia and Bonucci for example.I haven't seen many matches outside of Serie A lately.
    I have same opinion with Marcello about Kjaer. Other than lot of member on this forum highly rated Kjaer. I don't fully convinced. For me, Ranocchia is more talented. I prefer Ranocchia over Kjaer for now. The price tag also become one of the criteria.

    About Candreva and Moussa Sissoko, we only can sign them if we can sell Poulsen and Tiago. But i saw Moussa Sissoko price would be expensive and it's not appropriate to buy expensive CM anymore. Toulouse even rejected 15mill offer from Tottenham in last summer. Candreva is a good option then

    I'd like us to sign one talented potential player from Padova, they call him Alex. They say he could very well replace Baggio.
    lol Padova, I remember last year I was in Malaysia (langkawi) for holiday then I met one black guy from Italy, he told me he was from Padova first question i asked him it was about ALEX :D.
    Too bad he was a milan fan :mad:

    I said this before too, Kjaer is a bit risky business. He could be really good at times and really bad at other times. He's just 20 so it is understandable for a player to go on a hot and cold form like that but still pretty risky.

    IMO there were people here praising Secco last summer and others who don't have faith in the guy (am one of them). Leaving a side all the good and bad moves that he made in the past 3 seasons i think the CB signing would clearlly show if he's got the eyes for players or not.

    You can screw up in any position and sign the wrong player except two positions that you just can't do mistakes in IMO ( the CB and GK). I'm hoping for the guy to prove me wrong on this.....

    Kjaer's release clause is only around 12mil so we could afford him, plus our good relations with Zampirini give us an edge over other teams interested in him

    I have no problem getting either Ranocchia or Kjaer. If we lose out on one then we MUST get the other. I don't want to end up with another Knezevic.

    Garcia was a trial or whatever you want to call it and I guess if we wanted him we had to pay for him.

    Like I said the other day, we should invest better in our youth ranks. We lost some magic in that lately and should be the team that scouts the best in that department.

    Lol you would be an awful scout :D
    It doesn't help believing everything I read :snoop:



    :p
    If Cannavaro retires at the end of the season then we will need two center backs. Caceres may have not played in the center yet but he is our fourth CB and we could get Ranocchia as a backup instead of permanently signing Martin. For the starting spot Kjaer looks the best option to partner Chiello.
    I wouldn't buy Kjaer then Ranocchia for backup. I am not sure I follow your plan...I think perhaps I am confused with it. Are you saying use Cack for CB then Ranocchia for backup or are you saying to buy Kjaer then use Ranocchia for backup?

    I think honestly the club is more worried about buying a team right now rather than producing one. Think about it, all our current youngsters: Ariaudo, Gio, Marchsio and PDC were all in the process of pulling through the academies right before Calciopoli...then that hit and suddenly we had to frantically make up a plan. Well, what is quicker? Growing your own corn, harvesting it....processing it...canning it...or is it easier to open up your wallet and just buy it? I think after this next mercato (summer) we will reinvest in our scouting, youth, youth coaching, etc because we will have bought a young team to last for the next half a decade...so, in 5-7 years when we need to "rebuild" again we will have had that many years into scouting and growing our own youth again. Ya follow? Right now, economically and short term high profits we need to spend, long term is a different story that takes more time.

    You know I am a HUGEEEEEEEE advocate of youth and KEEPING them here and developing our own, but in the big picture getting our team back to pre-calciopoli is probably easier to buy than the youth process. And even in that case (youth) you can't always guarantee the next "del piero" or "marchisio", etc.
    I don't know :confused:

    I can tell you how it should look in theory, but if you ask me to put names there and make it a realistic back 4 for next year, then I can't make it.

    Quality always comes first, so of course I wouldn't choose an experienced defender ahead of a non-experienced one just for the sake of it.
    So if the defenders we're talking about are all quality ones, then i'd like a more mature player next to Chiellini. Someone who knows when to do things. When to make a foul, when not to make a foul, when to be dirty, when to do some defensive tricks etc.
    For the full back positions i'd like players with great stamina, who are very good defensively and one of them to be good offensively too.

    Now you put the names :D
    I wouldn't be so worried about "experience" as I would language barrier. 3 italians and a young danish kid still learning the language in a very risky CB position to me would be a risk. But then again, someone experience in reading the game would be able to make up for a language barrier. :confused:
    Meelan's long-term project is in the shitter, and Inter already have so many quality CBs.
    yeah but that wouldn't stop them from buying another.
    milan really need a quality CB, while inter need a replacement for matrix,so it could be.
    Yep...and Lucio is how old? And Samual? Cordova?

    What are you looking for that isn't convincing you about Kjaer? I was more than sold when he man-handled our attack earlier this year. He is uncannily smart for his age...those kinds of smarts are not easy to teach...when you got it, you got it...As dumb as that sounds its like saying that is one less thing we would have to teach him. Give him playing time and watch him grow on his own. He has God behind him and the Savior beside him....not sure how much damage he could do.
    lol Padova, I remember last year I was in Malaysia (langkawi) for holiday then I met one black guy from Italy, he told me he was from Padova first question i asked him it was about ALEX :D.
    Too bad he was a milan fan :mad:

    Sorry I should have worded my post better. My plan is to let Caceres return to Barca and replace him with Kjaer. Kjaer and Chiello will be the starting CB pair for next season and in case Cannavaro retires we would need another CB. My suggestion was to sign Ranocchia to replace him. So our four centerbacks would be: Chiello, Kjaer, Ranocchia, and Legro. Yet if Cannavaro stays signing Ranocchia is not necessary

    Tuttosport news of the day: il primo obiettivo del direttore sportivo della Juventus sarebbe l'argentino Alejandro Damian Dominguez, seconda punta del Rubin Kazan.

    I don't really remember it, but apparently he scored against Inter in the CL. So that must be why we're after him.

    I think his contact expires at the end of the year so he will be available for free and could play from January, don't know if he is any good or not, he's 31 years old and his agent is Sivori Jr who will be in Turin on Saturday, apparently to talk about the deal

    He's 28. He has been pretty good in the two CL matches I saw, versus Barca and Inter.
