i dnt know...there is something inside me that says tiago can make it..he can be a pleasent surprise is given the chance..lets face it..tiago never had the support from the board nor ranieri..he was always benched when noceriono was favored for him..now i know if tiago was given the chance to start instead of noceriono in some games he would have done well..but his confidence and morale were really down that time...he could do something..and personally i hope he stays and proves us all wrong..and for the appiah part..gimme a break..he had 2 awful years at juve..he flopped more than tiago did but the difference was appiah still played and tiago was benched..we dont appiah..and appiah aint a cm hes a dm!! he only played 3 good games for us in his 2 year spell!!...so what we need to do is not get appiah and TRY to get a defender...and keep tiago and let him TRY to show his worth until jan!!...
You're kidding me, right? Tiago is 10x times the flop Appiah was. Appiah actually was pretty decent from what I remember.

Thats just sad, the effort we got from Everton was very good for Juve's interests.
Unfortunately it is not for Tiago himself, i ve stated the reason why he cant play in the physical EPL league, but then he should accept a lower salary in another championship, right now we are held hostage...

I'm not sure what you're talking about, Doc. Tiago did well for Chelsea so he can certainly handle the league. Moreover, we were the dunderheads that bought him in the first place and then admitted we were "forced into buying him because Sissoko was too much." He can hold us hostage all he wants for all I care. We're the dumbasses in this case.

In his dreams maybe...

Realy why some people support that Appiah was a flop?? I Realy liked him, he and Emerson were a very good pair in the midfield of our team. He is a very good player, he can defend AND he can create chances. I realy don't know why Capello sold him and Maresca and kept Giannicheda and Blasi. I will always wonder for this. When he left us he was very good in Fener and in Ghana and some years later he was wanted by Arsenal and West ham.

Realy i can't see why you don't wont such a player in Juve. We are screaming for some creativity in our midfield and you don't want a player that can give some. IN parma he was even better and he played closer to the attack. He didn't to leave Juve and now he is free and he want to come back. I realy like him very much and the only player we have and i am sure that is better than him is Sissoko...

Tiago was not good in Chelsea. He was just ok. Nothing more. He played well for Lyon but there he had Juninho next to him and the only thing he did was giving the ball to him.

Tiago has never done something extraordinary for his team. He never was a star-midfieler. He was only ok nothing more.

If anybody knew anything about him, they would know he's a role player who gets the ball to the star players. No shit.

But he's a good player and did a good job at Chelsea.

Agree 100%. And we were not searching for such a player when we bought him. So its our board's mistake and not his. He does his job but we don't need such a player.

i mean that his technical characteristics and his reduced form and confidence forbids him of re-trying in a championship where physical power has the first word on everything, this is exactly where he failed to deliver in our team, in the role he cant properly deliver, the DM.
I m sure that after his bad exp for him, with us, in this particular role, he would avoid a league based on physical competence and he would prefer a team/championship that would favor his technical skills, like the Esp Liga.
I think this is the reason he want Atl. and turns down many EPL offers!
