Higuain for mad money worth it? For CL? KEK! I hope juventus sign him, the amusement will be worthwhile.

Juventus fans when Higuain miss eliminates them from cl this upcoming season:

Not to mention he turns 29 in December so he will have very little resale value in 2-3 years.

sportsczy wrote:Are you guys seriously saying that Higuain is worth 95 million and he's going to be a difference maker in CL for Juve? Seriously???

It may happen... but it would be sheer luck as opposed to something one would reasonably expect going in.

I'm actually stunned.

sportsczy wrote:I mean I love Juve's optimism and everything... but unless Marchisio comes back and plays to his old level, Khedira stays injury free and somehow can play at his Germany NT level and Pjanic also steps it up, Juve aren't winning CL.

These things are won in the middle of the pitch.... something that took Madrid 12 years to figure out. You can't beat Bayern, Barca, Atleti, etc. unless you can control the middle because they will impose their rhythm on you otherwise.

That's why I thought that Conte really messed up. With Pogba, Vidal, Marchisio and Pirlo, he should have done a whole lot better.

Juve has a good team... but they're not favored to win CL by any stretch of the imagination. It's the same teams on top. Juve are in the next tier. Making the semis would be a success for Juve imo.

higuain is a flop and always been a flop for years, its poster like you lot who always never seem to remember a bad game from him, who can't taken be seriously can't get over miss from 2010 for benzema, but can forgive higs for flopping his ass just a few months ago , elite striker who can't get out qualifiers for the CL.

what said is fact once he flops all of you gonna avoid this thread and wait until next season to resume, same shit every season.

I don't really care what happens now, if he wins then it's even more laughable but if he loses in the final so what.

So i disagree, nothing is coming back to bite me. Although going through both the Elite striker and Higuain to Juve thread i'm disappointed in the lack of quotes that make sense.

Great Leader Sprucenuce wrote:Well the finals part is true, but the general theme he's a CL flop in general and surely he put that to dead today?

Yep lol.

Originally it was big game flop, then it was CL flop and now it's finals flop.

Not sure how but the haters will probably find a way to move the goal posts again
