the coach of Belgium, Leekens, said a couple of months ago that Hazard should start working harder if he wants to up his level
and lately he has been doing just that
I doubt we can get him but if we can I wouldn't hesitate for one second
Before leekens said that, it was a real problem. apparently he's improving on that point, but it remains to see if he keeps doing it.

Some posters, like Bjerkness and his bandwagon posters, seemb to think juventus should play with 5-6 offensive players who are defensively very weak, and strikers who are technically perfect, rather then goal machines

There has never been a serie a side that won the champions league that had more then 1 creative player that was poor defensively.
Juventus especially, allways was about a strong organisation, with pwerfull champions who were allway mentally superior,more determained. prima punta's, only good for the goals, an ss and am had to be quite something to be free of defensive duties.

this is italy, not spain. if you wanna see passing football with loads of fancy and flair, your watching the wrong league.

juventus will never be passing with fancy and flair

That is not set in stone you know (that passing football doesnt work in Italy), and it might not be a good thing. Let's see, would Barcelona win Serie A, if they were magically transferred to it? If yes, than obviously passing football would be possible in Italy, so not everything has to be based on just hard work, some flair and technique can work too.

Milan had Kaka, Seedorf and Pirlo in the same team, so your point is void and garbage. As for the rest, you're living in the past.

I'm a fan of the idea that offense is the best defense. If we actually had a good offence able to keep the ball and put the opposition under pressure our defence would have much less to do.

Spalletti or Capello for next season. Agnelli asked Elkann for 150 Million, Elkann will put 50 Million into the kitty instead.

Marotta & Del Neri will both be gone if we don't reach fourth.

that actually reminds me of lippi's last tenure at Juve when we had a piss poor defence but we were outscoring goals to those conceded, mind you back then we had players like di vaio and miccoli to choose from, a luxury (strength in depth) we no longer have :(

So lets say 50 Million + Stadium + Sales we could be looking in the region of 80 Million.

First signing should be Pastore, he'd be great under Spalletti(If we got him)

wheres the link, im sick of people here fantasising with nothing to show for it, we had this last summer when everyone had great expectations.

as for hiring spalletti, he would be adding to the long line of mistakes we've created
