He's been coached by Domenech for years, 'nuff said. Now that he's gone, the damage needs to be fixed. First step is he gets out of Real and starts playing, then everything else falls in place. Benzema is messed up now.
Benzema's head is messed up Buck, you suddenly can't turn your mind back on just for the National team.
The entire French team was coach by hilarious Raymond, why is the new coach singling out Benz though? If anything it should be a fresh start for him, a chance to prove himself away from Madrid.

Talented as Benzema is, there's just no way to deny that there are worriying signs. So whichever team ends up signing him, is going to take a huge financial risk. Sure, a risk that could turn out great, but still a risk.

And we surely aren't in a position right now to take such risks, hence me saying no to Benzema right now.

Signing any player for a huge amount of money is a risk. Nobody thought Diego would of turned out so useless for us but he did.

If the opportunity arose to buy Benzema for 20 Million he should be bought straight away, no hesitation because he along with Dzeko are the two best attackers on the market right now.

He's singling him out because Benz is a 22 year old, playing for Real Madrid, earning 8m a year while sitting on the bench. He knows it's not good for him, because his head is not in the right place, but can't help him, Benzema needs to do that himself. Clubs are every day work-place, NT is once, twice every few months.

I understand your concern but I think it's not that big of a deal, I don't see him nearly as problematic as Cassano, for example. I could be wrong though, that's just my opinion.

Juve have eyes for Lukaku
Wednesday 6 October, 2010
Juventus have joined the race to sign Anderlecht's impressive young striker Romelu Lukaku, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

The 17-year-old Belgium international has already attracted interest from Inter, Real Madrid and several English clubs.

Juventus are keen to bring in a striker in January and have already been linked with France international centre-forward Karim Benzema.

However, Beppe Marotta [pictured] and Fabio Paratici have apparently drawn up a list of younger players, which includes Lukaku, and River Plate pair Funes Mori and Erik Lamela.

Interviewed on Calciomercato.it, Lukaku's agent Christophe Henrotay said: “There still aren't any traces of official offers. But the English interest is real and we have a good relationship with them, but there is still nothing concrete.”

When asked about Juventus and Inter, he added: “I can't define it as speculation because there has been contact with these teams.

“The interest exists and we often hear from them for updates on the player. Certainly something could happen at the end of the season, or maybe even before.”

Buck is just being his Italien cautious self. Forgive him he only wants Italians at this club, try and prescribe him a dose of pasta sauce to cope with his Gilardino and Pazzini illness.



:D

I know, would be too good to be true to see him at Juve. It won't happen probably but hey, this is the wish list thread for a reason
I would take him over Benzema without even thinking twice.


Sign Benz and Dzeko, sell Iaq and Amauri, and I'm happy for the next three mercattos. :p
Well yeah, you should be happy for the next 3 mercatos, since there would be no money left for other reinforcements during that time :p

Guys, you're going into "I'd take Modric over Diego" kind of territory. Careful. :bianconero:
Maybe, but like you with Modric, we aren't completely neutral about this since Romelu Lukaku (as you clearly see in the name) is Belgian so normally (I know, this is juventuz) people will understand it that we are taking that road.
