Juventus F.C. [2011-2012]

[Arnau]

Isla will play on the left

Has he ever played there?

 

[Rocky]

He can play there, and he has, even if his "natural" position is right back. Very versatile player and I wouldn't bench Lichsteiner for him.

Edit-Actually, scratch that, I would bench Lichsteiner for Isla, depending on the formation we play.

Isla works better in the 3-5-2 and Lich in the 4-3-3

 

[poet11]

Given that you switch between 4-3-3 and 3-5-2 as you mention... Isla can play RW and Litchsteiner full back in 4-3-3. I was just curious as to why you signed Isla when you had two decent players for the right side already but yes Isla is better than both of them and thats never a bad thing.

 

[kp41]

Isla and Asamoah transfers are confrirmed, but I doubt their use in first XI. Solid backup players though.

Looks like we got Pogba, and Ferguson isn't that happy.

We seriously have a monster midfield right now. Pirlo, Vidal, Marchisio, Asamoah, Pogba... and the list can continue.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Yeah, to be honest after the Asamoah signing it seems a little dubious by Pogba. I can see him sitting on your bench for a few years too. But at least credit to him for not accepting the bull**** from Fergie. The old man can talk all he wants, but he brought Scholes back out of retirement instead of giving the kid a chance; why should he stick around?

 

[kp41]

According to Fergie, Pogba signed with Juve a long time ago and he was upset that he wasn't honest with the club. I'm not sure if he get more chances this year at Juve than United's last year. Good signing though.

Btw, what you guys think of Falcao rumors?

 

[theo]

weird cause there's nothing from us on Pogba. as for Falcao, doubt it will be happen, unless we give them money + Giovinco or someone. can't see us making a 40mil signing.

 

[kp41]

It looks like Lucio is 99% confirmed and a young keeper, Nicola Leali.

It's very hard to imagine Juve without Del Piero .

Oh bull****. "I'm not mad you did it, I'm mad you LIED about it!" Everyone who's ever had a girlfriend (or a mom for that matter) knows this is the biggest lie of them all.

 

[4ndr3i]

^ haha, so true!

Apparently the reason we didn't announce anything yet is because Pogba was with the France U-19 squad yesterday, where he played a game against Serbia and scored two goals. The beast.

 

[kp41]

Lucio done, great signing, Juve is great at capturing these kind of players, Pirlo best example.

 

[Juventino]

You can't possibly compare Pirlo to this neanderthal defender. He won't nearly have the same impact. Good for depth, that's it.

 

[kp41]

for sure, I just compared the type of transfer, buying free agent.

Why didn't he get given a chance? seriously... because he isn't good enough. 19 year old lad who's done nothing... hes no Oxlade.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

You have no idea if that's true.

 

[adedawson]

eh? just watch him play... not first team material yet, potential though.

 

[Arnau]

Pogba didn't play regularly because SAF doesn't want to burn youngsters...

 

[ShAnDo]

Has he ever played there?

I'm from Chile so I've watch Isla play a whole bunch of times for our national team. I can assure you, he plays everywhere.

 

[Filipower]

What do you mean "burn youngsters"? The first part of the season saw the best of United when they had De Gea, Jones, Smalling, Cleverley, Anderson and Welbeck on the team.
