Muriel still needs to grow. It would adversely affect him if we burdend him with the responsibilities he would have at Juve. If he has the potential, then we need to perhaps invest or find a way of investing keeping the future in mind, but he definitely needs time to grow, and that's best left to playing for a club where the pressure is a little less, and there's still a fair standard of results. Udinese is the best for him right now. Muriel's real worth can only be evaluated in a season or two from now.

To me it's a straight fight between Jojo and Sanchez, and I'd go with the latter, because there's a bit more exposure on the levels he's played at. Barca and the CL have exposed him to the kind of pressure he'd face at Juve, and I think hes grown since his time at Udine. I don't think he's exploded into a world player yet, but there's good signs for him in the future, and I think hed cost around 20m. Much better value than Jojo for me. JoJo is somebody who is massively overrated here. I don't think he's a bad player, but I don't think he's twice the player Vucinic is, and he's certainly nowhere close to the value of 30m. Unfortunately, his growth has been hampered for whatever reason, snd hes not grown at the pace he was expected to, at all.

In this inflated market, if we could get Sanchez cheaper, I'd go with that.

I personally doubt Muriel would be available for only 15m.
Udinese put inflated price tags on their players.Honestly im thinking 20m atleast.

And that is the problem Juve have, waiting for a player to reach his potential is giving an invitation to richer clubs.

Juve have done a lot worse than sign a 22 year old that has had a good recovery to a long term injury.

Do you guys really rate Sanchez over Jojo? I wouldn't take a 15ml Muriel over a 22-25ml Jovetic.
15m Muriel>30m Jovetic. For sure.
22m Jovetic>25m Sanchez.
25m Sanchez=25m Jovetic.
22m Sanchez>25m Jovetic.

I'm guessing price is going to be a definitive factor if it came down to a straight fight between Jojo and Sanchez, though like ID said, neither compare with the might of Tevez at anything under 20m.

Unfortunately, Udine, in this case, rate his potential just as much as we do, and if they're going to slap a 20m price on him, it suddenly becomes a proposition that might have to be reviewed once. Given the buying club's need of procuring a player likely to have an immediate impact in the 20-25m range. Some players like that are available in the market this season, and therefore Juve will consider their options IMO.

I would rather get Jojo or Sanchez over Tevez, call me crazy, even if Tevez is the better player right now he scares me. I would also love to have a striker we can build a team around for a long time.

Honestly if we are serious about muriel,udinese will make sure we pay 15m for his half or something.
If even the likes of parma can value belfodil's half at 11m ,imagine what udine wud do with their jewels.
And they have built a reputation of ripping

Sanchez for 40M was a classic rip off. After one good season.

I personally think Sanchez is more of a system player.
He'd suit a counter attacking team more than a slow build up possesion team like us.
He's another guy that needs space to thrive imo.
