How much can Tevez-Llorente improve Juve? Can they win CL?
As the title suggests, how much do you think the signings of Carlos Tevez and Fernando Llorente will improve Juventus, and do they really have a chance of winning the CL, with the current squad.
The defense and midfield are perfect IMO, and all that was needed were better strikers. Now with Tevez and Llorente I think the squad improved a lot, but is it enough to win CL ?

Re: How much can Tevez-Llorente improve Juve? Can they win CL?
Depends on a lot of things. Will Buffon and Pirlo keep their level? I think Pirlo will. I have my doubts with Buffon. Will Tevez regain form? At worse, he need to be as good as Vucinic.
Llorente is the key more than Tevez. He was a good, not great scorer with Bilbao. His biggest issue with Bilbao was not technique... he's technically good. It was efficiency. He missed a lot. But i expect him to get shots in better position at Juve.
Juve probably need a better LB than Asamoah or the kid (forgot his name)... not a whole lot of good LBs out there though.
On the other hand, i expect Vidal and Pogba to both improve.
We'll see.

@El Patron, please don't generalize, if you don't have anything to say about the topic, at least do not spoil it, thats all I have to say to you.
@sportsczy: I am more concerned about Llorente than Tevez TBH. Tevez just came from an average season, and still scored 17 goals and made 16 assists, more than any Juventus player, at both goals and assists. That means something IMO. I think he still has a lot to offer for 3 more years.
As for Asamoah, that is a concern too. He was absolutely phenomenal in the 1st part of the season, probably the best LWB in the game, but since the AFCON he returned a different player unfortunately. Physically he was much worse, until late on the season when he started to regain himself a bit, showing glances of what he did during all the 1st part of the season.
Considering it was only his first year as a transformed winger, it was to be expected honestly.
I think he will do much better this season, having in his mind that he now is a winger/wing-back, he will be much more willing to learn new things in the pre-season, and think like a winger.
I still have high hopes for him. Besides we have Giaccherini as another option there, so I think we are covered, even if no one else comes.
Ogbonna seems to be pretty close to us too, and should be a great substitution for Chiellini, and could even feature on LB if Conte deploys a 4-man defense anytime soon.
I personally still think we have to wait 1 or 2 more years until our team reaches it's full potential and probably win CL, but reaching the semi-finals is a realistic goal IMO, but with a bit of luck, could very well reach the final.

It all depends on the draw in CL imo... you can't really point to a certain round. To me, it's who you beat and who you lose to... also how you look in doing so.

Is it enough to improve Juve? Yes, but something tells me that the partnership of Llorente-Tevez wont' be as people think it'll be (Just a hunch)
Is it enough to win the CL? Really depends on the other teams, Juve aren't the only ones improving. Though i can see them making it far

personally i believe Juventus is still missing another striker, a vice pirlo, a new bench CB and a new LB in order to win the Cl......

He should suit them, but I think with Tevez hes proved WC at times, but not exactly that level consistently enough. Juve got many choices now its not funny....
