Do we have a legit chance of getting Lewan? Let's say we sell :chin: and vucinic for 25M Total, and Lewan's wages would be around 7m a season, we can easily pay his wages for 3 and a half seasons with that :chin: and vucinic money

Between now and the end of the summer transfer window, it shouldn't be too hard for Juve to add some attacking players and have the squad completed. The following is reasonably realistic:

IN:
MENEZ (EU0m) - end of contract bosman
BERARDI - half owned and will remain so but will play for us next season
NANI - (EU15m) - that should do it and has been linked with us for a while
CRISCITO - (EU15m) - A much better left back than we have and can also play well as a wing back
NAINGGOLAN (EU15m).

TOTAL = EU45m

OUT:
De Ceglie (2-3m)
Padoin (4m)
Isla (5m for our half)
Giovinco (15m hopefully).

Total 26-27m

NET is around 19m

-----------------------Buffon/------------------

Catenaccio, 15 million for Giovinco? Really??? I reckon he has gone under the 10 million transfer mark...we overpaid to get him back, he doesn't fit in and he sits on bench a lot...15 million is not possible in my opinion anyway.

Nainggolan is an interesting player, but if we get a left back, say Criscito, it opens room for Asamoah to play in midfield again, meaning we'll have yet again another midfielder for rotation. With Pirlo, Pogba and Vidal being the starters, Marchisio, Asamoah & Nainggolan will have to fight for playing time off the bench. And the man that does need cover and a rest is Pirlo and we still don't have a back up solution for him , unless Asamoah plays in his role. 6 midfielders for 3 roles, with one of those midfielders being unique in Pirlo, I just think we need to be careful...unless Pirlo is leaving (still cant see it happening), can one of the bench midfielders immediately step in his position?

Love the idea of getting Berardi back to the club, have a good feeling about this player...I reckon he can be something for us.

Concerns over Menez and Nani...one on a free isn't so bad but spending big dollars for Juve on Nani is a risk. We need to look at a player who can make a difference if we are going to compete with the best in Europe...we need a Mata type of player. Tevez, Mata and Llorente suddenly sounds world class.

totally :tuttosport: if true, but where the $#@! would he fit in our first XI?
Haha, just about anywhere! Could play as a forward in a front 2, a wide player in a 433 or behind the striker in a 4231, or a trequartista. A versatile attacking midfielder.

I don't think its going to happen. Best case is we get him on a loan and he will be cup-tied and we won't have the option to buy at a reasonable price. His market value would be close to EU40m based on recent transactions for players of his qualities. I don't see Juve throwing that kind of cash - so yes, curb your enthusiasm. We could sell both Vucinic and Giovinco and it would only be just over half of his transfer value.

Loving all the enthusiasm here. But to save yourselves a lot of time and effort. Let's stick to Biabiany coming. Mata rumours are a joke right now. Think we should thrown in Midget boy into the Radja deal instead of the Biabiany rumoured one. In saying that, would love to see kwadwo in the middle which makes going for Radja totally redundant. But seriously, you guys are wanting Criscito back??? Do one will ya!! :sergio:

Nani is so overrated. He's failed to make a performance for too long. He might be a bargain for 15m € but add his wages to that. Im pretty sure he's earning somewhat 5-6m € a season. Id rather take a chance on Berardi with an improved contract worth 500k a season.

Nani is fast but he's not intelligent with the ball. He'd regain his reputation in La-8-0-Liga where he can outpace the other pacewhorez but in Serie A he'll struggle i think

He's way more skillful than Gervinho, yet Serie A defenses couldn't handle the fast&fugly Arsenal reject. Say what you want about Nani, but he'd definetly be an asset for us, at least in Italy.

Young player bitching (or people bitching on his behalf) about not playing much in his first season at a big club under a coach that demands 100%. Yup, sounds like De Bruyne would find exactly what he's looking for at Juve.
