Wishlist and General Juve winter mercato talk (2013-14) (10 Viewers)

But not at the expense of Pogba. Llorente, Cavani partnership would be beast along with a set of wingers reminiscent of Pavel and Mauro.

And a left footed Lichtsteiner on the LB

why would u have two number 9 target mans upfront?

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Llorente isn't some clumsy target man

He's very good at link up play. Him AND Cavani would be amazing.

Well if we're not going to pay the wages that World Class players want then we're not going to improve short of finding a new Del Piero. Surely as the amount of money coming in to the club is improving every year, so will our wage budget.

Its not about the wage budget.Sure its increasing every year.But its about the wage cap.We havent had a player earn more than 6m in the last 5-6 years and its probably going to stay that way until we reach the level of other top clubs financially.

Also the notion of Cavani taking a wage cut is just dreaming too much cos you can easily find EPL teams who possibly have better projects than us willing to offer similar wages he earns at PSG if not more.Also lets not forget he plays for a Champions League contender,not some obscure Russian team.PSG have made a huge investment on him so its safe to assume he is in their plans for the long term.

blanc tried cavani and zlatan upfront and it did not work same thing I would expect with llorente and cavani.

 

[Carlos Primera]

Who knows, Cavani might take a cut to 8M per season

Everybody in England was laughing at the prospect of Tevez taking a pay cut. But well... look what happened.

Cavani was my dream signing, the guy is the genuine article. He would have been devastating at the van of the 3-5-2. In saying that, I still wouldn't swap him + cash for Pogba. The Black Jesus is stayin put.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Best case scenario is Pogba signing a long-term contract and staying

But if there's a risk of losing him for a small price, we need to sell him quickly.

The great man's got this baby, let him do his thing.

At the moment it’s just a dream. Many clubs like Edinson Cavani, especially in the Premier League. Chelsea and Manchester United are ready to make an obscene offer for the “Matador”, but PSG’s current ownership is very attached to Cavani and it’s unlikely they would let him go. Chelsea and Man United aren’t giving up hope: they already spoke to the player’s agent, they have made the preliminary inquiries. The biggest hurdle is PSG’s unwillingness to sell him, they would likely only consider a figure not inferior to 100 million euro, which is what they told Chelsea during the January transfer period, when Abramovich’s club made a timid inquiry. Premier League clubs maybe interested, but PSG’s ownership adores Cavani, the Matador’s future appears to still be in the shadows of the Eiffel Tower.

[Pirlo's Beard]

No club is going to get Cavani in a cash deal, PSG don't need it obviously

 

[CrimsonianKing]

Fuck Cavani if it means sacrificing Pogba. Our attack is pretty set as it is.

As much as i want to keep Pogba, Cavani can be the difference between us having at shot at a CL title and struggling to get past group stage.

Don't get me wrong, Llorente and Tevez are a step up from what we had last season but Cavani would be yet another step up.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

Agreed. Just because our new strikeforce isn't shit like one involving Matri that doesn't mean we're 'set' as far as competing in the CL goes.

If we switch to 4-3-3 then I have no problem with Llorente being our go to striker because he'd be putting up even better numbers with service from two great Wingers

But if we're sticking to a 2 striker formation then somebody like Cavani would be a dream signing.

Swapping a 20 year old Pogba who has years ahead of him for a 27 year old Cavani really doesnt make much sense financially.If anything i'd want a equally good talent or atleast something close to him(not in terms of playstyle but in talent levels) if we were to sell him.I'd take cash + Verratti if an opportunity were to arise.Verratti is only 21,will be loyal to us and has years ahead of him.I tend to think long term normally.

Anyways this is a moot argument since we cant afford Cavani's wages.

Well it does if you do the math. In 12-13 we made €65.3 million total in the CL and that was reaching the quarter-finals. If those rumours are true they are willing to give Cavani + Money, even if it's €10 or €15m in the end we would end up with Cavani and give or take €80m. And since I personally believe he could take us that far in the CL, oh does it make sense.

But then the wages

 

[Albo]

I would rather have Poogba than Cavani .

 

[rakib567]

I say we go for shaqiri. won't cost us more than cuadrado and he is much better

So going by what you're saying(not assuming this Cavani transfer),you believe we'll flop in the UCL again next season ? What if make the quarters again and earn a similar figure to the 12-13 season ? We wouldnt have sold Pogba and at the same time would've made a massive chunk of that CL money.Pogba's value would've gotten higher in the process and we would be guaranteed of making more money in the long term than this swap deal would bring.And no,even with Cavani,i dont think we'll be close to that CL crown.Too many competitors atm and a lot of luck is needed for a team like ours.

But then ,you've excluded wages out of this discussion and that in itself will be a huge financial burden on us.

That said,i'd rather have just cash than players if we were to sell Pogba.And if it were to involve players,i'd rather be it some young talented player who'd have a high resale value.

But Bayern wont sell him.
