Anyway, injuries aside, if your squad is balanced & you can afford to buy Ribery, it would be idiotic to turn him down because of his history with injuries. The guy can change a game in a matter of seconds, i'd take him any day of the week.

with David Luiz going to Chelsea, the chance of Ivanovic playing as a CB has decreased right? He desired to play CB and not RB anymore?

I would think so because the last time I saw Luiz he played for a half as a LB and Hulk just ate him up. He looked like crap compared to the other times I had seen him.

Capello: 'Juve need quality'
England manager Fabio Capello feels Juventus botched their transfer strategy. “You need players who make the difference, not make up the numbers.”

The Old Lady have struggled and are in seventh place, but bolstered the squad with the arrival of Luca Toni, Alessandro Matri and Andrea Barzagli.

“This is Year Zero for the Bianconeri,” Capello told GR Parlamento radio.

“Some players did not deliver what was expected of them. It will be an important experience for President Andrea Agnelli and next season he will begin again.

“The trouble with the current squad is there are some good players and others who are very good, but the general level of quality has to be improved.

“When there is a reformation, it is better to introduce at least a couple of quality players at a time.”

Gigi Del Neri complained at the lack of options amid an injury crisis, but Capello has other ideas.

“I always told clubs: I don’t want seven players. I want two good ones,” continued the former Juventus and Milan Coach.

“Milan have signed Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robinho. Finally, I told Adriano Galliani, you have signed two excellent players. You need men who can make the difference and not just make up the numbers.”

Me don't know, Alex isn't going to be around for very long there, Terry neither but I can see the latter starting next year.
I don't think we can afford his wages but Ivanovic is probably the best defender in Europe, can cover so many positions if Chelsea loose him it would be idiotic.

Exactly right. That's why the best course of action is to develop a youth system to bring in the numbers on the squad and use all capital for the quality players. But that's not what Moggi or Capello have done in the past.
