Who the $#@! is talking about 3-4 wingers ? We have Pepe, Giovinco as back up wingers already. Coman might walk in there as well and Berardi is already 50% ours. Only need one more, tops.
Pepe and Shitvinco only have this season left in their contract. Time to ship them out especially Shitvinco.

Well, they're decent backups and if they're happy being just that there is no reason at all to dispose them, especially if we want to use a wing-based formation. +1 year for the both of them imo.

Meh. Pepe and Giovinco are not good enough, even as backups. There are too many flaws to their respective games, and they lack the necessary quality, even as bench options.

We'll just have to tolerate them this season, and hope for a good summer transfermarket next year.

Well, anyone who wants to replace them must realise it's about the same thing as another mercato focusing on backup players realistically.

Doing that AND upgrading our first team with another 2 wingers is never ever going to happen.

I think Coman, Pereyra, and Berardi can be deployed as wingers. I guess we then have to tolerate one of Giovinco and Pepe as a backup option, until we have the financial means to acquire a quality player.

Do People really want Mata?? He would be terible.. He is so way past it! He can barely run anymore! Totti is faster than him. Buy younger and players with more hunger!

New contract for Pogba until 2018 with an option for one more year. 4.5mln/season

New contract for Buffon until 2017, might as well be his last contract

After that it might be Marchisio turn to sign a new one.

Darmian is wanted by Roma right now. We're also interested.

Why it's fantasy? Just change Pirlo for Berardi next season; Coman & Pereyra could play RSS now. Fantasy is thinking we'll sign 3 to 4 wingers to change system. Tell me who covers the sidebacks in your 4312??

First of all our midfield is stacked, and we'll NEVER use a 2 man CM partnership to make room for teenage wingers or half decent players who are being shoe horned on to the wing, that's just fucking not going to happen. It would take a retarded coach to take our best area and weaken it so we can play Coman and Pereyra AND drop one of Tevez/Llorente. Not happening.

Second of all, Allegri has never ever used anything remotely close to a 3-4-2-1, hell only Napoli from recent memory pulled it off with any success, because their attack was stacked and their CMs were average at best.



So I don't want to read more shit about some crap 3-4-2-1 when we have 1,000 midfielders and our best winger is a teenager.



As for 4-2-3-1, come back when we have a top class AM and 2 top class wingers. Otherwise we'll be fielding some disgusting monstrosity with half a team full of players who are half decent in a 4-2-3-1 system, we'd be lucky to finish top 3 with our current team in a 4-2-3-1

As if Vidal couldn't play as AM in a 4-2-3-1. It's all about the manner of playing. Formations aren't about stereotypes, pal. Conte played a 4-3-3 in a complete different manner as well.

Mata's issue is definitely not that he is past his prime. He is a good playmaker, however, I don't think he fits in Juventus' team.

Mata has a reputation of being on the lazy side, and not tracking back much. He also lacks versatility.

That being said, if we did buy him to complement our current squad I would not be upset. He just isn't my first choice.
