Porrini: Juve need two top players!

Sergio Porrini has urged former club Juventus to spend big on two new players this summer – one in defence and one in attack.

Although the Old Lady are within touching distance of their second consecutive Scudetto, they lost 4-0 on aggregate in the Champions League to Bayern Munich at the quarter-final stage.

Asked by Calcio News 24 on what they need to compete in Europe, the ex-defender had clear ideas.

“In my opinion they need two top players,” Porrini, who won the European Cup with Juve in 1996, commented.

“One of those is required in attack, while the other is needed in defence and both need to be experienced.

“Presently, Juventus have some defenders who are not ready to compete at the highest levels on the continent.

“In attack, Mirko Vucinic is a good player, but, in my opinion, that is not enough.”

Juve have already wrapped up the Bosman capture of Fernando Llorente from Athletic Bilbao.

I don't believe JUVENTUS should even think about defenders because those three on the back is our best puzzle,

The problem was that we had no counter attacking options, because if you have a pair such as SUAREZ + IBRAHIMOVIC there, no one have courage to attack you like they BAYERN did to us...

And another problem was that we did not have that CMF power that needs to dominate the midfield and lead the game, PIRLO is really good but he is not enough, there need to be someone else there too, such as XAVI + INIESTA pair....
