not what we needed but he's good. Welcome Christian!

We need creativity in the mid.

 

[Juventino]

Creativity huh... I'm pessimistic. I expect another boring 3rd/4th place finish. Even the Serie B team was about equal to the current team.

 

[4ndr3i]

Well... looks like we can say goodbye to Xabi Alonso.

 

[Rocky]

Guess we're gonna start another defensive midfield pairing this season. Secco just can't seem to get the right players. It seems like he's always getting his second or third choice of player that he wants. More money down the toilet that could have been used for something useful.

 

[Juventino]

Ranieri: ''Con l'arrivo di Poulsen la campagna acquisti e' finita.''

 

[vitu]

Ranieri needs to be gone. I don't trust him. I hope Xabi comes or we won't have a midfield.

 

[theo]

we've got Ekdal. I mean isn't he the new Zlatan?

 

[Rocky]

I thought Amauri was supposed to be our new Zlatan? Their games are pretty similar.

Can't believe Ranieri said our transfer activity is over now. Does he really think our team is up to standard to achieve anything? Unless his expectations aren't high for the new season, we need to bring in some more players. A quality defender and a creative midfielder need to be brought in before Ranieri can say our transfer activity is finished. I hope the Juve fans in Torino and the rest of Italy start rioting outside Juve headquarters. Gotta take a stand against our ****ty management. They're ruining this beautiful club.

 

[4ndr3i]

Pff.. If Ranieri said that, then the guy's on drugs or smth. I remember that not too long ago the rumours were that we're chasing hot-shots like van der Vaart and Diego, even X. Alonso was good but NO, we end up with Poulsen and the transfer market is over for us. Sad...

 

[Mus]

Looks like noone wants Poulsen..

It'l be interesting to see when we play Roma or Ac....

 

[mark77]

They'll love him when he's in our opponents face, wins those f*ckin' balls and scores a goal or two on corners.

 

[Mus]

He's a really good marker, good player to have against the top teams in the cl for eg.

 

[Rocky]

Rumor has it Giovinco is in a contract dispute with Secco. Some big English clubs like Arsenal, Man Utd, and Liverpool are ready to make offers if Giovinco doesn't get a good contract. so should we be gearing up for another Secco blunder? I mean Secco tried to offload Giovinco to Palermo in the deal for Amauri so......

 

[theo]

good god if that happens then Secco is a total idiot.

 

[mark77]

bull****!

He'll re-sign till 2013.

 

[Rocky]

Haha Secco went and got himself banned for a month! Idiot, if only they could have banned him for life so we would have had to go and look for another sporting director.

 

[Mus]

Haha, how'd he manage that one?

 

[Rocky]

It was for an offense he committed in the negotiations with Genoa over Criscito.

According to Tuttosport, Clarence Seedorf could be set to quit Milan following the arrival of Ronaldinho, and make a sensational transfer to Juventus.

Ronaldinho finally completed his long awaited move from Barcelona to Milan on Tuesday night. One Rossoneri player who has been heavily critical of the transfer is Clarence Seedorf.

The Dutchman has repeatedly spoken out against signing in recent weeks, insisting that he isn’t prepared to play in a deeper role to accommodate Ronaldinho, nor will he hand over his No.10 shirt.

Although there were reports in the Italian media yesterday that Seedorf had now embraced the Brazilian’s arrival, Tuttosport claim that this isn’t the case, and that the former Ajax and Real Madrid star is seriously considering quitting the club.

The Italian newspaper goes even further and claims that Seedorf could be set for a sensational move to rivals Juventus. The Bianconeri have announced over the past few days that, following the signing of Sevilla’s Christian Poulsen, they will not be buying any more outfield players this summer.

However, the chance of capturing Seedorf, a creative midfielder that the Juve fans believe the team needs, could alter this plan. Juve are waiting for Seedorf to make the first step, before they then enter with a firm offer. Milan, meanwhile, may allow the 32-year-old to leave, if they believe he will cause problems in the dressing room.
