I think we can get something for him. Perhaps 5 million Euros or so.

You know, the world doesn't be all and end all with Juventus. Tiago's displays at other clubs still holds his reputation higher than other players.

We can get even more than 5m for him. I wasn't laughing at that, i was laughing at the "unfortunately for us" part.

Not from economic view, but if he likes to play, i think he should count his losses and move on.

Sometimes it seems as if he doesnt want to play for this team when hes on the pitch, so thats why i think it would be a good move for him.

5m is a petty sum you sell average little youngsters for. Like Lanzafame or such. Someone who has had his career and earns that big of a salary, going for 5m would be a loss in investment. But yeah, due his meeeh peformances, and most importantly, due to his somewhat big salary ( reason he turned down clubs, to keep his salary), no one will be willing to invest in him, we will be lucky if we can get anything of worth out of his sale. Its delusional to think otherwise, as cyril seems to be.

Though you seem to be too pessistimic, because i dont think they would accept a 5m offer for him. We will defenitely get more then that.

Well yeah, he's a very good player if we couldn't or didn't appreciate his talents other teams will.
There must be a reason as to why he has been so consistently pathetic for us, such a shadow of his former self...physically we haven't heard of any ongoing problems, certainly not anything to affect his form so drastically over two consecutive seasons seasons...but there must be something...if not his body, then it must be trauma of the heart, mind, spirit or soul. I know nothing of those areas, other than the sad, nervous, almost about to cry look in his eyes I see sometimes when he plays for us...

So true, and it makes me angry, because there almost always sits a player on the bench who would want to go out on the pitch and fight with everything hes got, not just run around and get tramplet by the opposition.

Hope we wont see him anymore this season. Give Poulsen a chance, he was stunning against Roma, he should have gotten his chance yesturday too.

Sell him. One wonders why Ranieri didn't play him much last year at first but now understands his decision.

Too soft he is. Even if he had the vision of Pirlo, I don't like "soft players". There's no place for soft players on the field.

Even Pirlo is not the type of player I would want. Last year someone laughed when I said this, but I'm never into soft players....this style doesn't attract me.

Marchisio's style is what I always look for. Tough, solid, runs a lot...with time, great vision will be found, stamina etc...

I don't think I would want Pirlo either...aside from the occasional freekick and nice passing I prefer a pitbull in the middle.

Marchisio is really blossoming into a great CM...I hope he does become our Gerrard.
