I have no idea. To be perfectly honest I don't mind using DC this season and see if he grows defensively. He has a good cross, speed and isn't afraid to surge forward. We have had an excellent mercato so far and it seems it isn't over yet. I'd be happy with DC.
DC can't defend. If you saw him on Thursday you'd definitely say we need somebody else back there. He was our worst player along with Sissoko.

Is Coentrao even a remote possibility?
Maybe, but probably not.

I can't say I want him either because I've only seen him play a few times.

Does he have an EU passport?

Edit- I think I'm getting confused here
Ahh, nevermind. I forgot he signed for Atletico.

Well, since I have a Portugese brother in law, he has seen him play quite a few times,since he also happens to be a fan of Benfica.

Now, if this happens to piss him off if he goes to Juve, then I'm all for it.

Fairly highly. Coentrao's still young, too.

Then again, he also happens to think that Kiss are the greatest rock band of all time
then i hope his taste on football is better than his taste on music...

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

seriously now, the kid seems to have a lot of potential but if i remember well, benfica asked something around 16 mil for him. and i am not sure we are willing to pay something like this...

Who are we kidding here? The above ones are the defenses that won serie A in the last 10 years. Just compare those with ours and weep.

swap De Ceglie with....em....Contreao,and we have a pretty impressive backline and with youth on its side,time to grow together and improve

You underrate our defense. It's surely weaker than those but c'mon!

Bonucci and Chiellini are both great while Motta is good and he's gonna be helpful. If we get a LB we're gonna have second best defense in Serie A because both Milan and Roma have weaker than that.

But in comparison, it's a lot weaker. Every player is weaker than his respective counterpart.

correct, however, krasic occupied the already free no eu spot.
sali is occupying the other position, so if sell, would that clear the way for dzeko?
Nope. If the rule worked like that, Inter could replace their numerous non-EU players with other non-EU players and basically nothing would change.

No because FIGC started a rule that Serie A club can acquire one non-EU player per season and that player is Krasic.
