Wishlist and General Juve mercato talk (2012-13) (33 Viewers)

[Xiven]

My favored front two would be Cavani + Jovetic, but in case that's not possible or too expensive.... I think Juventus could do very well with Dzeko + Rossi. Dzeko won't be as expensive as Cavani. I imagine he'd be available for 25m? Rossi would be a good buy if his injury doesn't hamper him. He could be available for a much lower price than Jovetic, probably around 15m? Also.... ItalJuve! The downside is that Rossi's recovery is an unknown right now and he would only be available in January?

Marotta might even be able to swing the usual "loan with option to buy" deals on both. Just throwing a coupla options out there.

Vucinic/Rossi --- Dzeko/Matri
Kolarov/De Ceglie --- Claudio/Kojo --- Pirlo/Pogba --- Vidal/Pepe --- Isla/Lichsteiner
Chiellini/Astori --- Barzagli/Bonucci --- Bonucci/Caceres
Buffon/Storari​

Out: Boriello, Quag, Krasic, Elia, Giovinco, Giaccherini, Martinez, Estigarribia, Melo, Padoin, Pazienza, Grosso, Manninger.

Caracciolo is available since he got shipped back to Brescia

I prefer Bogdani.

Rossi? The dude is out until Feb. or March next year. R u sure?

Oh boy, at some of the BS being spewed over the past few pages.

Do we need to improve our starting lineup? Most definitely. Our attack is shit and won't threaten the big guns in the CL. We might make it out of the group stages, but there is a possibility we might crash out in the group stages. We need a quality striker who can make a difference for us, otherwise we are going to regret it. Our defense and midfield might save some games for us, but ultimately it's the strikers that bang in the goals. We don't have a proven, accomplished attacker in our ranks, and that is evident for all to see.

Rebuilding? We can't keep using the same fucking excuse every fucking year. We've been rebuilding since the summer of 07, our first season back in Serie A. That was 5 years ago. I do realize Marotta and Co. have a tough job, having inherited the Secco mess, but right now is the time to add quality, not numbers. Enough Malakas, Elias, and other wastes of space that just eat up our wage bill and add absolutely nothing of value, whether it be on, or off the pitch.

We make superstars? Really? Who was the last superstar we made that wasn't named Del Piero? I might give you Camo and Zambrotta, but Zidane and Trezeguet were both established quality players before they came to us. Surely they improved while wearing our jersey, but they weren't unknown entities when they came here. Nedved? Buffon? Canna? Thuram? They were all world class players, playing at the highest level, in a very competitive Serie A by the time they got here. Going by AC's logic, Dzeko, RVP, Higuain, Cavani, and the like are not World Class then, because they haven't won shit

The bottom line is we need a WC quality attacker up front, and if we must slightly overpay, then so be it. We won the Serie A undefeated, and that was a great achievement/accomplishment. However, we shouldn't allow the euphoria of victory to cloud our judgement. We won a weak Serie A, with a lot of unexpected twists and turns, still recorded a record number of draws, and had no European commitments slowing us down. Next year, it's going to that much harder.

We can continue rebuilding, but we must also maintain a strong focus/perspective on winning. an RVP/Higuain/Cavani type transfer this summer will send out a strong signal, a signal of intent that we are hungry for more, and that we are back for good. Get a JoJo/Suarez next summer (or this summer, and the top CF next year), and we shall have a formidable squad (that will only require a few minor tweaks over the coming 5 years or so) for years to come.

 

[Fr3sh]

Ppl still put that guy in their fantasy line-ups.

 

[Gian]

Quag to Malaga?

 

[Bianconero81]

That would be a start. However, if we sell Quag to Malaga, and use Matri to get Cavani, or sell him to fund another deal, where does that leave us on the forwards front?

Spot on! without a WC finisher we will get nowhere in europe, might not even get another lucky break in serie a either.
However I think Marotta & co. are not that stupid to ignore this, they're just waiting for the right moment which imo would be the last days of the transfer market; that's when the big moves usually happen and they can take advantage of that.

 

[Xiven]

(that will only require a few minor tweaks over the coming 5 years or so)

Im just saying that Rossi is another option as a winter transfer depending on his recovery, and if no other big name is possible this summer.

ItalJuve shall live strong! Forza Rossi! :evil:

In 5 years, Pirlo (32), Buffon (34) and Barzagli (32) will need to be replaced at a minimum. Lich, Vucinic, Matri and Marchisio will also be on the wrong side of 30.

 

[Bianconero81]

Fuck Rossi. We can and should do better. Let's close this chapter once and for all. And no, we don't always have to buy Italian. The acquistions of Vidal, Isla, and Asamoah nullifies that theory; if a player is quality, we should target him, whether he's Italian or not. We shouldn't be buying more Padoins, Borriellos, and Pazienzas just because they are Italian and familiar with Serie A, because they are still shit regardless and irrespective of their knowledge of Serie A

That's 7 players over 5 years; we have plenty of time. We are already building towards the future. Matri probably won't be here by then, and apparently we already have heirs to both Pirlo and Buffon (although I'd love to target Sahin next season if possible).

 

[Xiven]

Juventus is so going to buy Rossi. I can feel it in my bones. :evil:

 

[Bianconero81]

You are usually mistaken, so I'm not going to lose sleep over your prediction

 

[Gian]

Juventus is so going to buy Rossi. I can feel it in my bones. :evil:

Vidic is destined to be a Juventino at some point, not Rossi.

 

[Bezzy]

Vidic is destined to be a Juventino at some point, not Rossi.

I hope not

 

[Rabbit]

El Kabir!

 

[ZoSo]

We really need that top player, we've mostly always had DP/Trez/Nedved/Zizou/Inzaghi/Baggio upfront and now we don't really have much of a difference maker upfront besides Mirko but he can't really be relied upon that much. Getting that top player would turn a very solid effective team into a formidable one.

Why not? In top 3 CBs in the world with Silva & Chiellini.

[Ken]

I like Quag, but if Malaga offer a good amount, I don't see any reason not to sell. Him looking 'lively' when he comes on didn't score us many goals. If we want a shot at a top striker we'll simply have to sell.

I reckon people just love the guy and don't want to sell him because of that. Similar to Cáceres when he was first with us.

 

[Dostoevsky]

I hope not

Yeah, he sucks.

 

[Xperd]

Malaga ready to offer 12m according to Gazetta..Read that report yesterday.
