I think we should sign Pjanic next season(if Verratti aint possible) but i dont know how realistic he would be come next year.
How would you use Pjanic?

He's a decent player (not one I would consider signing), but I can never figure out how I'd use him.

I think he's better playing behind the ball (i.e. not as a trequartista), but I'm not convinced he has what it takes to play as a regista.

    So, to you he is overrated because he plays a type of position that is not being used as frequently as before, instead of feeling that he is overrated because of his talents?

    What player are you referring to with your #Centurion?
    His name is Ricardo Centurion
    That's it.

    @Mark

    What about Adnan Januzaj ?! Do we really want him ?!
    I think it's more the media over there saying that so when they re-sign him they'll say...Juve didn't get him this time.

    Is he good?

    @Mark tell us about Younes Marzouk
    Loves Allah, nice kid, retweeted me...

    :D

    Never saw him play apart from those rare vids on youtube. Some say he's the Moroccan Lewandowski. :boh:

    Getting Kolarov and Zuniga is enough for me. I'd call it a very good mercato. They can be very good as wing backs.

    IMO Zuniga as a WRB is better than Litch. We'd be improving the 4 positions we really needed.

    Also keeping Marrone, playing him MUCH more often as Pirlo's role, for 2 strong reasons: Marrone must play more and Pirlo must play less. Shouldn't allow him to leave.

    1st team (352): Buffon; Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli; Kolarov, Marchisio, Pirlo, Vidal, Zuniga; Tevez, Llorente.

    2nd team (433): Storari; Peluso, Ogbonna, Caceres, Litch; Marrone, Asamoah, Pogba; Vucinic, Giovinco, Matri.

    residual players: Padoin, De Ceglie, Pepe.

    This 2nd unit could very well play 15 games in Serie A and keep up with the level. Very solid team, with Litch, Ogbonna, Asamoah, Pogba, Marrone, Vucinic...

    in: Llorente (free), Tevez (12M), Peluso (4M), Asamoah (8M), Kolarov (2M + 6M), Zuniga (6M), Berardi (6M + players), Zaza (1.5M) = 40M spent

    out: Giac (10M), Quags (8M), Isla (7M), Melo (4M), Ziegler (1.5M), Masi (2M) = 32M received

    Great mercato spending 8M overall. I hope this falls through.

    Can't believe you benched Lichtsteiner for Zuniga.

    Litch didn't do well last season... he's the prototype of a RB, not of a winger.

    Zuniga is better offensively than him, IMO. At the right side. Playing as a LWB Zuniga is just average.

    Zuniga and Kolarov will not be first choice against good teams like the big boys in Europe. They are simply too poor defensively.

    Zuniga would provide depth. Kolarov would add some offensive spark to the left side and depth.

    Wingback prime tast is defensive strenght. If you domminate that "offensive" wing of the opponent, then what use do they have of it.

    Licht and asamoah, excell in 1 thing : duel power. and because that, they will be starters no matter what fancy nancy people want to see come in

    Apparantly Verratti handed in his transfer request


    this is our chance
    Or napoli's
    Or fiorentina's

    Seriously, if napoli pounces we are screwed cause we cannot compete with liquid cash.


    I'll have to see this be actually true first

    Wanted to ask you this..Hypothetically speaking how do you think Juve should plan post Pirlo ? Continue with the same system ? If so who would be the available DLP's ? I already spoke of Verratti and Gundogan who seem unlikely.Xabi Alonso ? lol

    If Verratti is available, you'd probably sign him and not change the system.

    Otherwise, I'd be looking to sign Hernanes from Lazio.

    He wouldn't be a dedicated regista in the way Pirlo and Verratti are, so you'd have to adjust things a bit, but he's the guy I'd be looking at just now.
