D'agostino probably would have been the smarter signing for a 4-3-1-2 than Melo

How does one come to that conclusion?

Nah, Melo all the way.

I misspoke, I did not mean in any 4-3-1-2 just Juve's current situation. Melo may be a better player but with him our midfield lacks any creativity and puts to much of a burden on Diego to drop back, with a more creative influence just behind Sissoko and Marchisio I think our play would improve and it would allow Diego to remain further up field. If Ferrara continues to use this formation than going after D'agostino again might be good. Then we can have both him and Melo

 

[Osman]

That would be bit overkill, hehe.

That would be bit overkill, hehe.

Not if we get rid of Poulsen and Tiara, Camo is getting to old to be relied on so heavily for creativity, and if not D'agostino another player with creative qualities

Fanni could join Juve, says agent

The agent of Rennes and France international right-back Rod Fanni says his client could join Juventus in the future although negotiations will be tough.

Juventus director of sport Alessio Secco was at the Stade de France on Wednesday to take a closer look at Fanni during a World Cup qualifier with Austria.

However, Didier Six, the player's agent, believes a deal won't happen in January and warns that Juventus will face serious competition for his client.

“I am aware of Juventus' interest, and even if the Italian media are speaking about it purely after seeing the presence of Alessio Secco at the France-Austria game, we are not talking about a novelty,” Six told TuttoMercatoWeb.

“However, that said I have not had any direct contact with the Bianconeri. Moreover I think it would be very difficult to underwrite a deal.

“English and Spanish clubs also like the player. If he were to leave I don't think that it could happen in the next transfer session, and, in any case, Rennes are one of the more financially solid teams in the French championship.

“Dealing with them is not a simple piece of business,” Fanni concluded.

I wonder if he really said that during the interview. How often do random people call Juventus "Bianconeri"?

You guys think Lazio will sell him in January? If I was him I'd hold out till June and sign a pre-contract with Juve and train with a local Serie D club.

Correct me if I am wrong but doesn't Ledesma still have around 18 months left in his contract and won't become a freebie until 2011 market

Why are we still discussing midfielders?

 

[X Æ A-12]

Because we need to replace some of our current ones

 

[IrishZebra]

we need to replace 3 defenders....

 

[Tommy]

Definitely. RB, CB, LB

 

[JBF]

Because we need to replace some of our current ones

Which of our starting midfielders we should replace?

 

[IrishZebra]

none Jacko

 

[X Æ A-12]

Which of our starting midfielders we should replace?

Did I say starting? And I didn't say midfield was the priority, defense is still the area that needs the most investment

 

[JCK]

Then why are we discussing midfielders? And getting ones that will take place in the starting 11.

 

[Bjerknes]

Camo - Melo - Sissoko

Diego

None of those. Marchisio... nope.

Poulsen and Tiago aren't starters.

And thus there is absolutely no need to change them, they are here and they are decent enough to sit on our bench.

We already have marrone aswell but we need a Melo cover.
