I actually wonder if people watch Zarate on here :shifty:
Its getting pretty hard with him warming the bench lately.

You and I obviously have very different ideas of what a good player is.

Head down, dribbly forwards with no end product are not my thing at all.
I think Lavezzi is better than Zarate, but I don't think he is anything exceptional.

Juve will have €80m budget
Friday 30 April, 2010
Juventus will have around €80m to spend on the transfer market this summer, according to Italy’s sporting media.

More than one national sports paper is today reporting that the Old Lady will have that figure at their disposal to strengthen their squad.

New President Andrea Agnelli has promised changes after a disappointing campaign which is likely to see the side miss out on Champions League qualification.

The outfit do seem intent on spending big again though despite getting little in return from the €50m they forked out last summer.

However, part of the €80m will be made up of the transfer fees that Juventus acquire this summer after their expected mass clear-out.

Names such as Momo Sissoko, David Trezeguet, Christian Poulsen, Zdenek Grygera and Mauro Camoranesi are all set to be sold.

And, according to which newspaper you read, Gigi Buffon could still be sacrificed if a big enough offer was tabled.

Coming through the entry doors will be a new Coach, with Rafael Benitez still classed as the favourite despite renewed interest in Fabio Capello.

A new director general will also be appointed with Sampdoria’s well-respected Beppe Marotta seemingly in a good position to be handed that role.

On the playing side of things, numerous individuals have been mentioned – including the Liverpool trio of Fernando Torres, Dirk Kuyt and Javier Mascherano.

Other names associated in recent times are Wolfsburg ace Edin Dzeko, Palermo centre-back Simon Kjaer and striker Giampaolo Pazzini of Sampdoria.
80mln - it's good.
But we must keep Momo and Poulsen. They + Machisio + Melo are ideal squad for 2DM position in 4-2-3-1.

Number of rumours involving other clubs recently and players I believe we should be going after as some cheap options to pad out the squad then make one or two big signings. Obviously we need to ship a number of players out.

Hearing rumours Real want to raise funds by selling players. Juventus could do a lot worse than both Diarra brothers (who have been linked with Man Utd) and Van der Vaart, possibly even Marcelo. They wouldn't cost too much. William Gallas been linked with a move away and he'd be a decent partner for Chiellini. He'd be cheap too

Really worried about our short term future though. Have no confidence in the people running the club. Can see us wasting lots of money again on the wrong players and if we spend a shit load to get Rafa as manager I may cry. We'd play boring football under him, he'd sign mediocre players like he's done at Liverpool and he'd just make odd decisions generally. If he came with Torres and Mascherano I'd be more willing to support him but only last night he was playing Masch right back and Glen Johnson left back. He persists in playing the very poor Lucas

If we spend big money on players like Kuyt and Pazzini I'll hit the bloody roof lol. I really would like us to get Van der Vaart, look how well Sneijder and Robben have done. Players we should have bought :(

I know what you're saying but I don't neccasirly agree. Cheap options aren't what we should go for. If anything if we want squad players we should look at the Bosman market with Hamit Altintop, Feghouli, etc. but we can't afford to settle for mediocrity. We really have to improve the defense and get a proper coach, it's imperative to any chances of success we have next season.

Yeah no cheap players. I'd rather buy a little less, and give some youth players the chance as subs and accasionally starters. I think we could sign Altintop or Källstrøm and try to get rif og Momo. Then We'd have two DMs(Melo and Poulsen) and two CM (Marchisio and Källstrom/ALtintop) that could pair up in a 4231 or 4312, and then we should off course keep Candreva.

Indeed we need to spend the cash on a top class CB and maybe even a top class RB. Amauri / Iaq / Immobile should deal with the number 9 role.

Well Amauri would at least mope about in the number 9 position.

Sell Amauri/Trez, DP can't play that role. That leaves IQ and Immobile? Neither are guaranteed to stay injury free, Alessandro.

The first two mentioned need to go and we need at least 3 strikers to compete all season for fitness, rest, suspensions, injuries, etc. What if we need to change to a 442 or 4312? We need the depth. Who knows, I wasn't suggesting buying 2 but you know I'm all about youth. Forza Immobile!
