I think we'll be good to contend again in two years (after this upcoming season).
A lot depends on what we buy this summer

What positions do you think are the weakest?

Post #303 » by **magik9113** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 9:26 pm

think they need to improve their outside defenders the most. Dossena or Grosso (they're rumored to want both of them) are better than Molinaro/Grygera without a doubt.

They have made it pretty clear that they play to play a 4-3-1-2 with Diego playing right behind the fowards. Sissoko, Marchisio, Camoranesi are the three midfields, I think the midfield depth after them also has to be improved a lot.

I hate Sissoko, don't know why. Yes, the side back positions should be improved. Who's going to play as a left midfielder?

Post #305 » by **magik9113** » Mon Jun 15, 2009 11:55 pm

I came around to Sissoko. I think they'll just have Marchisio on the left, since they are 3 center mids depending on how you look at the formation. A lot more attacking will be asked out of the side backs.
Diego/Giovinco in the 1 position will be fun

i think sissoko was a valuable player at the beginning of the season, then he kind of faded away (like the rest of the team).

and while watching sportscenter this morning they said that del piero could be in his last season with juventus, that he would like to play in spain, china or usa.

I'd want Del Piero to retire here, especially after not leaving the team when we were relegated. What would he gain in USA or China that we can't give him? I believe he's one of the most paid players in our team.

He'd get to chill and be payed a lot, and be the best player in an entire league. He would draw crowds especially in NY. If he came to Red Bull New York that'd be great for me, I would go see them all the time

I doubt he'll leave this year though. but we will see.

I don't think Sissoko faded away...he just got hurt for the rest of the season and that's also when things started to fall apart

Maybe Giovinco can play on the left? We've overpaid for the midfield position twice(Tiago-Almiron), I hope Sissoko won't be the third one.

When I first saw the away jersey I wasn't sure if I liked it, but it's definitely growing on me. Most of their aways do:
The classic-

more recently-

I have the red jersey, and the blue one(From the same season IIRC). The others are black and white stripes. No way the away jersey is sold here, but I'll try to buy it somehow.

Post #314 » by **BlackMamba** » Wed Jul 8, 2009 11:28 pm

the best jersey has been the blue one but with the stars on the shoulders.

Batu7 · Post #315 » by **Batu7** » Wed Jul 8, 2009 11:30 pm

I don't remember anything like that. You have a photo of it?

that was their jersey in '95-96

I believe they won champions league with it

Batu7 · Post #318 » by **Batu7** » Thu Jul 9, 2009 8:51 am

I was 3 back then, no wonder why I don't have it.

It looks like we're bringing in Felipe Melo....nice!, plus MM is going to Fiorentina..... even better!
Now, if we could only bring one good LB, like Grosso maybe, or even Dossena.

Post #320 » by **magik9113** » Thu Jul 9, 2009 10:21 pm

yup I kind of believe we'll get Grosso...that'd be great
