Look at dortmund last year. the ONLY reason why they went all the way through the finals is because of they ATTACK and not their defence. juve mainly docus on defending but dortmund mainly focus on attack and that's why they WIN games and we just about win games. we need to get rid of giovinco (although he is youth product) and also quags and vucinic (although quags saves our ASS in a lot of time but we should not need an ASS-SAVER because we should be dominating the game anyways)
Yeah in the league, relying on defence is fine. But I don't care how good your defence is in Europe. In a knock-out competition against the best of the best, you aren't going to be able to keep scraping 1-0 wins. You need some actual danger upfront. Of course every now and then a freak Chelsea scenario comes along. But generally, if you're not able to take the game to the opposition then you're done for
What I hate is how in big games (Even against shit serie A teams like Milan) we pretty much go to the game with an underdog mentality. We allow teams who on paper should have no right controlling the game, to completely dictate the play.
Our defence at its very best might be amazing, but we are not going to be able to keep continuous clean sheets against the Elite European teams.
We either get a new system with some top attackers or we stagnate and continue to dominate our own league but do f*ck all in Europe. Simple as that.
I imagine a similar CL showing next season would damage our reputation beyond repair for years.
I can hear it now on sky sports news 2015. "Juventus. Italian champions. Tottenham will be quite pleased with that draw, they are surely favourites to top the group."

Get:
Cuadrado
Trequartista.. Mata or Moura if big money were to be spent.
Sell:
Quag
Isla
Padoin
Peluso
Vucinic or Gio
Just a bunch of dead weight right there. Whatever they bring in should go towards improving the offense.
Just like Napoli used to do with Hamsik behind Lavezzi and Cavani.

Running down the wing and squaring the ball is not the mark of a good TQ
I get your point and I agree with it, but this specific detail with Lucas as a TQ is just not going to happen. When I think of a CAM/TQ I think of the exact opposite of Lucas. He's quick, thrives in space and lacks a good footballing brain.

we should look at players which are not going to be too expensive (40m+) but still can make a huge diffrence in our attack.
Center Forward:
Mario Mandzukic
Luis Meriel
+ any young players which will have a good season (ie if you imagine that any of zaza/immobile/gabbiadini/scores like 15+ goals then any can join juve)
Wingers:
Ángel di María
Ezequiel Lavezzi
Jérémy Ménez (freebie?)
Xherdan Shaqiri
Stevan Jovetic (on left wing maybe?)
Alexis Sánchez
Pedro (wants more playing time
)
Antoine Griezmann (inform can't stop scoring goals)
+ Domenico Berardi :hellyes:
Attacking Mid (the probable future):
Javier Pastore (still 24)
Hernanes
Mata (if situation at chelsea is not any better and we get him at right price)
Leftback (for 4 man defence):
Ricardo Rodríguez
Aleksandar Kolarov
Adriano (kinda old)
Alex Sandro (could be a bit expensive)

We definitely need wingers and people who say we don't need their heads to be checked. Possession football without wingers? Works in Serie A well in Europe we're one of the most boring and ineffective teams this season. We can't play counter-attacking football nor possession in Europe. Besides attitude we need changes in tactics and squad to take next step.
Exactly.
At this point I think it's good we'll miss on Nainggolan. I rate him a lot but spending so much for a rotation player would be wrong. We should just bring back Marrone after the season to be that player and invest heavily in RWF while selling a few unnecessary players. Let's not kid ourselves we won't have too much money.

Lucas Moura as a trequartista
