Khedira for 0 $ is still a bad deal for whoever is getting him .

i hope u guys use Illaramendi more often now.Hopefully the ostracism ends with Rafa taking over (:

Khedira for free is not a bad deal really. He is decent on the ball and has a great engine and physique. Can't help many clubs.

by M99 Thu May 28, 2015 1:06 pm

Yeah it's not a bad deal at all. He will do pretty well on Serie A imo.

by farfan Thu May 28, 2015 1:06 pm

i'll always have nightmares thinking back about his disgusting technique and decision making in the final third . Sad

Was one of the best players in our WC-winning side, imho, so I assume he'll at least not embarass himself. Of course his technique is pretty shitty, but the engine on that kid is awesome, and being paired with Pogba and Vidal will mean that Juve will basically play with 13 players.

The size of the engine doesn't really matter that much when the car drives at 1 km/h

Fantastic signing for Juve, their midfield is absolutely crazy even if one of the remaining midfielders leave.

Khedira/Pirlo/Marchisio/Vidal/Pogba/Perreyra

:bow:

Not like he is gonna be a starter anyway, but great bench material for sure.

True, but that's not the case, so I wouldn't be worried.

Doubt it, especially if Pogba leaves. Well unless injuries prevent him I expect him to find a place in the starting line-up. Juve fans will love him.

From Melo, Sissoko, Poulsen and Tiago to what we have now in just a few seasons and nearly 0 cost.

Marotta :bow:

So we'll sign someone who was troubled with injuries in the past to replace our star midfielder.Gotcha :proud

Pirlo is leaving.He'll take Pirlo's spot......

On the bench.

Aye, don't expect him to be a starter, not from the beginning at least. On the other hand we can't predict the future. For example he could become next season's Evra, who we signed as an alternative to Asamoah but circumstances made him an integral part to the team instead.

I really don't see any negatives to this move.

by S Thu May 28, 2015 3:03 pm

True.There'll be healthy competition anyway and big clubs need that so its all good :coffee:

Good signing. Khedira's not half as bad as Real fans make him out to be.

In Madrid Khedira attacked too much. A player like him has to be limited with his forwards runs. He'll be very fresh to do the sweeping and pass the easy ball to his side.

If you're not scoring 50 goals per season, even if you're a CB then chances are the fanbase at Madrid think you're shit

Even Ronaldo gets his fair share of criticism and a manager that would go down in other clubs history books for his CL exploits gets sacked instead.

I'd happily keep taking Madrid 'rejects' and watch them thrive in a club that doesn't expect them to score 70 yard scorpion kick volleys to stay in the team.

Pirlo, Pogba, Khedira.

One man's trash is Marotta's treasure Proud

So who'll Juve sign to replace Pogba then should he leave, if Khedira is "bench material"?

----------Marchisio---------
---Pogba-------------Khedira/Sturaro

Well it's not necessary to sign another midfielder to replace Pogba IF he indeed leaves. Provided we sign another left-back to rotate with Evra, Asamoah could move back to his natural position in the midfield and take Pogba's place. Also there are some rumors today (B.S rumors in my opinion) linking us with Naingollan.
