Arthur

I'd be very tempted to offer Bayern money for Thiago rather than go for Pjanic, he's got a year left on his contract and still hasn't renewed.

But Juve are not going to pay 80m for Arthur unless Pjanic involved or someone else pays 60-70m for Pjanic which wont happen.

There is not really the choice of selling Arthur without getting Pjanic it seems.

the great midfielder I would buy from Juve is Bentancur but dunno retard board even know who is.

It had been reported plenty that Barca liked him and Juve said there was no chance. Barca been linked to him quite a bit in past. They know fine who he is.

We will buy Pjanic for 52.4 mil and that is deal.

Don't be happy because it is not cash , it is just swap beetween two clubs to try avoid problems with financial books.

yeah thats the most likely scenario sadly.

not sure how I feel about that deal, Pjanic might work well with Frenkie short term (Arthur was never going to) but its another pensioner for FC Retirement home

I dont mind Pjanic as he is a midfielder that can pass ball forward.

But if he is in team with Vidal, Busi, Rakitic etc might as well give up as its another slower slightly older player.

Not long turned 30 is not as old as is being made out but just seems worse with old squad already there.

We are the slowest top ten team in the world already and we downgraded even more. Now we have even less legs than before. While BBz shit on Arthur, the guy had high intensity for the time he played. Not running slowly everywhere like Raki or Busi.

I hope it happens. I want to see Pjanic turning up the assists and key passes. Let's see who he will pass to when Messi comes near him and Papa Bear Suarez is up front surrounded by players.

Should be fun. :lol:.

Arthur is fairly slow and blowing out his arse 10 minutes into the game while he is injured too much and doesnt behave correctly off the park.

Wont be a miss on what he has shown but if they go into next season with Pjanic and the older players same thing will happen.

As a straight swap on ability I dont mind it as think Pjanic brings to team aspects that Arthur doesnt. But fee should reflect age and other old players still need dealt with.

if it was straight cash, i'd run with that deal but basically we're buying a washed player who's 30 years old with most of the money so i dont know how that's balancing the books.
bartomeu is spineless, easy to push young arthur out but but wont say shit to overpaid useless players.

Balancing the books is name of this operation. Nothing else.

Arthur was great in Gremio, he was much faster and mobile. Now he is so slow, don't work hard.
Look at his higlights from Gremio. He was making tackles , but know he plays like he is Messi don't doing dirty work.

Pjanic is number 5 in Seria with most km in season so far.

I would like someone else but after 3 seasons Arthur didn't become our first option in midfield.

Juve need to do quickly the Semedo - De Sciglio swap deal while the iron is hot. Put both the deals in the same word file and print the fucker :lol:.
