The Midfield: From Hero to Zero?

Luca wrote:Honestly, I rate Matuidi far above Witsel

With that being said, I would sign neither. I don't think we should do a panic buy if the right player isn't available.

This is what I think too! Juve doesn't need a new addition in the midfield compartment just because Pogba leaves.

The squad has already enough depth to cover all the games in a season. Hopefully for Juve, they won't have problems with injuries. Asamoah can easily be a starter in any kind of game in the midfield. With Marchisio back, with a fit Khedira, if you don't sell Pereyra (heard some rumours, don't know if they were true) and with Pjanic, you already have a list of top class midfielders. And I didn't even mention Sturaro or HERNANES. Pjaca is versatile and young, can always play CAM if needed.

So, I guess the midfield is from Hero to Great, but the team overall considering the latest arrivals is from Hero to Amazing!

I am surprised , I think you made good points because most of times you don't I think we have good players but what worry most of us is the injury problems but it is up to Juventus to decide if they trust the players or not

Most of the times I don't make good points?

Can you elaborate please?

Rotate Lemina with Asamoah (great in preseason) Lemina can be a great WC player.

Sell Hernanes and/or Pereyra. Pjaca can be AM/TQ sign one quality CM and we are done.

Witsel would not be a panic buy. We've been linked to him for weeks and an offer has already been made.

Marchisio, Asamoah, Khedira are injury prone.
Sturaro, Lemina, Pereyra are unproven yet talented.

I see the Belgian as an insurance policy in case of injury/misform. Someone that can alternate around 3rd to 5th choice midfield depending on the situation.

Matic + Diawara is great deal if we can them.

Matic is coming. Conte has Juventino DNA. He will let Matic go once Marotta has a little talk with him to show him who's boss...

Last summer there were many rumours regarding De Gea's move to Real Madrid since July. Pursuant to what the web and media said, he was Real Madrid's player since August. Finally, we found out that Real Madrid didn't even make an offer for him until the last days of the summer transfer window.

this one will not fail trust me

JUVENTUS want HIGUAIN
MAN UNITED want POGBA

the price is not expensive it is reasonable, the negotiations has their own ways but it will be around 100 million

that is one of the comment
you will get to understand by oneself that most of times you don't make good points

Ahem.

And what should I do about that? I feel lost.

wow what a come back,
the problem is that you are too much for me to teach
so I wouldn't try that

There's no need to be arrogant in my opinion. I genuinely wanted to find your opinion on what should I do and I combined it with a little joke, but to be clear, I really respect what you think of me.

Keep it civil and ok guys

Sure, Devi! I'll stay on-topic.

ya'll reminding me too much of this when I read these posts

please stop degrading my wonderful topic

Hernanes still sucks
The sky is still blue
I am who I am

WTF is that

That is the song that plays in my head when I read through some of these posts

LMAOOO



'People think that I am somewhat mental

They don't know i'm very sentimental'


'Somewat Mental' Need that tattoo'd somewhere on my body. And the rest of the song for cruising around.

Hell yeah

I would match that tattoo with you, lifelong friend, main man Tom

Ma boy Luca ffs

Now, who should we get

Since there aren't many quality players available to replace the prodigal son, should we go for a temporary solution and make our assault on Verratti next season or the one after ?

Future official song of the 2023 Cricket World Cup hosted by India ?

Matic if he's possible. And add another player on top of that unless Asamoah can finally stay fit.


No point trying to make a big splash on a CM this Summer. None out there that are really feasible. In 12 months time however who knows who wants a move.

Verratti just extended so it'll still be tough but yeah

I like our team right now as it is, unless Matic is available- he brings that "steel" to our midfield

But who knows, maybe Pereyra bounces back, maybe Lemina does well, maybe Sturaro shines. Realistically, Pjanic is a very different type of midfielder compared to Pogba, with Pjanic being a Pirlo type, controlling midfielder, a player like Sturaro could look very good next to him (Gattuso like).

Yeah that's what I think too Tom and Luca
