was Ibra scoring more at Barca or at inter/Milan?
Ibra just didnt fit Barca but you do know its not an exact science but attacking players are likely to score more at attacking minded teams than non attacking minded teams... It will even make sense if you think about it for a while..
Yeah Dybala scores here quite well could he score more yeah could he score less this is also a possibility but the thing is if you take an attacker and say where he is more likely to score the answer will be in an attacking minded team therefore it is more likely that Napoli striker be able to score lots of goals and Higuain shattered the record there and now Mertens is doing very well..
The other reason why an attacker is more likely to score at attacking minded teams than at Juventus is the role - Higuain for example is doing much more in terms of play than at Napoli - Higuain is putting pressure he is dropping back from time to time - a thing I dont remember him doing for Napoli...

What is so funny about it?

Best way for a striker to score a lot of goals is to play in the 7-0-league...playing for Barca or Real will give you even better chances.

Ibra failing at Barca tells us one thing, that ugly mothafucking camel is shite (wasn't somebody talking about Ibra here? :shifty:).

We need to get a right-back in the winter. Preferably someone who doesn't hasn't played in Europe this season, so we can use him for the CL.

Maybe we can return Lirola from loan, or Spinazzola (if he can play RB).

Pellegri is the one we need.

Pellegri Kean Dybala :tuttosport:
This could be great in 5 years (if they all develop well...) but right now Pellegri cant hit the bench while Kean is too young and talented to waste on the bench so if we get Pellegri he might be great in the future but the present will look the same..

As for now - We wont get anyone so it doesnt matter who we need.. but if we want to talk about it anyway its obvious that a RB is needed while a destroyer could help being more solid... Attacking wise we need Higuain to wake up or get a fast player who is also strong enough to hold balls and has shooting and heading abilities...

Marko Pjaca looks like he could have this profile if he develops properly.

It would be useless Lirola isn't good enough right now....

My name would be Djibril Sidibè

And Morata would fit the description sadly....

Anyway Higuain is an awesome striker but not for us.
Because we spent everything we got for Pogba and we got him being 29years old.
If he was 25 that would've been worth it.
Or if we won the champions league.

Honestly right now I don't see anyone worth spending money.
I'd rather Keep Higuain unless someone like PSG come and offer 100m.

We've needed a European quality mid since 2015, still don't have one, we will never win in Europe if we don't get the players we actually need, but at this point, who's a mid we can realistically sign? Also, sell Higuain on the first bid we get, biggest mistake our board has ever made was signing him for that price....so sell him now to a pl team to recoup some money, or keep him here where he just takes up space and his performance keeps going down each year and wait til his contract runs out...sell him asap

Should've known this would happen... Higuain guarantees goals.

Lucas Torreira has won 33 balls this season, the second most behind only Radovanovic.

http://www.legaseriea.it/en/serie-a-tim/statistics

He's also a Juventus fan

http://www.football-italia.net/99723/torreira-id-play-juve

From the bits and pieces I've seen of him, he seems very talented. He's very good defensively, can dribble past players and is an accurate passer.

We should go for him in the winter. He'd be CL eligible too.
I like him. Kante style of player.

But we so many midfielders we should switch to a 433

Totally agree. he is a Kante type of player,hard worker but more technical. I love him ,last week against Milan he was excellent.

We need a good RB in January, that should be the priority. Lirola is not good enough.
