wasnt very awesome in his late milan time

last year he was injury'd half season, and not well used by the Mister. But he used to be the playmaker of Milan untill that. i'm sad.

Melo to Galatasaray
Loan for 1.5-2M with option to buy for 13M


Juventus Football Club S.p.A. announces that the agreement with Galatasaray Sportif Sinai Ve Ticari Yatirimlar A.S. for the temporary disposal of the registration rights of the player Felipe Melo De Carvalho has been reached. The contract envisages the payment by Galatasaray of € 1.5 million in three instalments to be paid during 2011/2012 financial year.

The agreement also includes the option right, to be exercised by Galatasaray within 31 May 2012, for the definitive acquisition of the football player at a price of € 13 million.

Bye Melo, you are a warrior. Just not in Conte's plans

Saw Juventus play today. Second time in my life, was an interesting experience.
Juventus unfortunately played horrible, Sporting CP played very well so I give them credit.
The bright spot was I sat behind Sporting's net in the first half when Krasic made his three or four runs I was directly looking at him, being in the second row that was very cool.
Also, Del Piero's wonder goal, what a man.

Things I picked up on:
The 4-4-2 will fail with Pirlo in the middle
Marchisio is not used properly as an advanced winger, this is a position he can not play.
Juventus' attack is still Krasic 100% Anything made was by him tonight.
Quagliarella is incredibly dynamic, Matri is not. No service, no Matri, very quiet tonight.
Chiellini and Bonucci did not start together for the second time in friendlies this summer that I've seen, with a new CB signing that means Chielli-XX will start with Bonucci benched I assume.

Conte will struggle to remain with Juventus past this year with this current team. They need a LW, SS, CB and a back up to Pirlo to make the 4-4-2 work at all.
I believe in a 4-3-3, it works for Marchisio and Pirlo and only requires a SS to come in to be successful and also allows Krasic offensive freedom.

Oh and I sat in the pouring rain for the first half, dealt with it

great goal by del piero

Diego Lugano linked with a Juventus move.
Costs 3.5M will help with CB depth.

Vucinic talks Please no

rossi deal might be cancel'd since villareal sold Cazorla.. and they've said they wont sell 2 key players atm.

Lugano maybe, hm a slight risk since no experience in italy .. i'd still give a chance for bonu.

IMO juve doesnt necesserily need a new striker
