Wishlist and General Juve mercato talk (2012-13) (22 Viewers)

You know the more I think about it, we should just go for Dzeko. His total cost would be lower than RVP - he is younger and should adapt well to Serie A. I also don't mind a Quags-Pazzini swap. Both are players of similar value but Pazzini is more the poacher we need.

Forwards would be: Giovinco, Vucinic, Dzeko, Pazzini, Matri

The sales of Elia (~6m), Krasic (~7m), Melo (~7m), Pazienza & Padoin (~4m and ~3m), and Ziegler (~3-4m) should give us the 30m of transfer proceeds needed for Dzeko.

I don't really see the need for Jovetic. I like him a lot but this Juve needs a finisher 1st and foremost.

Bonucci, I believe, is probably going to be acquitted (just a gut feeling) - so no need for another center back. All we need now is Armero and the squad would be complete.

Starting XI (3-5-2): Buffon, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, Lichsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Armero, Giovinco, Dzeko
Matchday Bench: Storari, Caceres, Lucio, Isla, Asamoah, Vucinic, Pazzini
Reserves: Leali, Masi, De Ceglie, Marrone, Pogba, Giaccherini, Pepe, Matri

(Leali likely to be loaned out and we will get some other old 3rd choice keeper)

1st, Pazzini wouldn't make the roster over Matri, nor should he.
2nd Conte Conte loves him some Pepe, so unfortunately, he'll play when healthy.
3rd any lineup w/ Armero and Lichtsteiner keeping Vucinic from starting, sucks!

Some afternoon BS for y'all

Sky Sports understands that Juventus' interest in Luis Suarez will not detract from their move for Robin van Persie.

It is understood that Juventus would ideally love to pair Van Persie and Suarez in a dream attack.

Whether either deal is pushed on remains to be seen, but Italian champions Juve are aiming big.

They have already made a firm move for Van Persie but, as with rival bidders Manchester City and Manchester United, have not been able to agree terms with Arsenal.
Sky Sports understands that Arsenal are standing firm over their valuation of the Dutch striker, who confirmed earlier this summer he did not wish to extend his contract, which has one year left.

Whilst Juve continue to work on a possible deal for Van Persie, they also have an interest in Suarez.

But it is understood that their interest in Suarez is long-standing and their ideal scenario was to sign both players but whether either deal can be done remains to be seen.

Despite his troubles last season, Suarez remains popular with the Anfield faithful and his performances underlined his quality.

maybe by cimtting nearly 20mil les for a sub CM less, we could afford both a SS and a CF, but now we prolly have to settle with a CF.
Maybe Isla destined as the anti-Pepe though, because Conte wants someone who can defend.

No backup for our cm's who are the strongest part of the team, whislt playing in 3 competitions ? 1 injury and we are fucked

1st, Pazzini wouldn't make the roster over Matri, nor should he.

pazzini is alot better in finishing then matri, denying this is idiotic
vucinic will allways be the ss, and isla and armero will do the flanks of the 5 man midfield

 

[Bianconero81]

Having Pazzini as a starting CF for a team of the caliber of Juventus is idiotic.

 

[JuveJay]

We get it, you don't like Pazzini.

 

[Bianconero81]

STFU

ItalJuve attack. That attacking lineup you posted is the epitome of mediocrity

We need one more CB, with or without Bonucci's ban.

do you guys really prefer Isla over the Nazi?

oh and I "hope" we play 4-3-3.

 

[GarfielD]

do you guys really prefer Isla over the Nazi?

In 3-5-2 yes. In 4-3-3 no.

 

[Trequartista]

Tn the 3-5-2, there is no doubt about it.

In a 4-3-3, Licht would start at RB.

 

[Joe]

I think Licht, Lucio and Caceres are more than enough. Especially because we have Marrone and Vidal in emergency situations.

But if we must buy another CB, please be a loan or very cheap. Or bring back Masi.

Lich cant play as a CB. Caceres is ok for a backup, Lucio is more than ok for a backup, but we lack one more CB. Vidal can play as a CB, but if we could get a propher CB for cheap or on loan, ill be fine with that. Boccheti, Astori, Manga, Ogbonna or Zapata would do.

Well, Lichtsteiner has been playing as a RCB these last couple of friendly matches and he has been playing well.

I always expect Lucio to be our first CB to come on. But Licht can definitely play as a RCB.

If we have Lucio and Caceres who are adequate CBs to sub on in the match, I don't think we need another one to be honest.

We'll only make one CB change a match, if any at all.

Coppa games: Licht - Lucio - Caceres
Serie A game: Barz - Bonucci - Chiellini
Serie A game in a tight schedule - Licht - Lucio - Caceres or a mix.
CL Game: Barz - Bonucci - Chiellini

All of my hopes and dreams of getting Higuain\Cavani or anyone else of their caliber, is being ended with Pazzini and Giovinco.
Moggi needs to clear his name asap and get us the new Ibra.

 

[B3N]

Lich cant play as a CB.

I disagree. especially in back 3, he's been superb so far,and if he keeps it up in a more competitive match like this weekend supercoppa ( I think he'll play as RCB ) then he'd be a fine choice more so to be even a starter

Edit: Joe

Caceres is ok for a backup, Lucio is more than ok for a backup,

Other way around, I'd say Lucio's not even reliable for a back up from what we've seen so far

Boccheti, Astori, Manga, Ogbonna or Zapata would do.

Neither one of them can play the ball or play that central role in our defence, I don't see how they could be Bonucci's replacement. (hopefully bonbon will be fine so we can forget about another freakin cb)

A couple of friendlies doenst prove that Lich can cope as a CB in Serie A and in CL. About Caceres and Lucio, they are both solid back ups.

And those players that i mentioned, were the first that crossed my mind. Im sure that there are a lot of solid back up CBs around.

Indeed, that's why I said let's watch Licht against Napoli first. still eventhoug it's preseason, it shows you if a player can cope with his (new, in licht's case) role or not. Something Lucio's failed to do so.

you're right those are the names that also being mentioned in media, I was just talking in general that they're not suited for Bonucci's role.
