“And soon we will have a third star on our shirts.”

We have 4 elite CB's- Chiellini, Legrottaglie, Mellberg, and Andrade. Mellberg and Andrade were captains of their national team, and well Chiellini and Legrottaglie proved they can hang with anyone last season. The only position we need to fill if Alonso comes is that LB. I don't need to convince anyone about Molinaro's deficiencies. Sell him, buy Grosso+Alonso and our summer spending is complete. ADP-Trez Nedved-XA-Sissoko-Camo Grosso-Chiellini-Legro-Grygera That's a great squad. Then in defense we have Salihamidzic, De Ceglie, Zebina, Mellberg, and Andrade who can cover all positions well, in midfield we have C. Zanetti, Marchisio, Giovinco, Marchionni, Salihamidzic, and in attack Amauri, Iaquinta and Palladino, assuming one doesn't leave. Gives us plenty of cover and during those CL periods when we are playing 8 games in 4 weeks (with Coppa) Amauri/Zanetti/etc. will get definite playing time. We don’t need a CB, man.

I doubt any more big signings, 28Mil on Amauri and now 20Mil on Alonso, thats alomst 50Mil on two players. Anyone eslse think we got cheated on Amauri, 28Mil for a guy who has proved......?

"Over the past week, Juve have been heavily linked with moves for Stankovic, Cassano and Podolski, while Aquilani has been on the radar for quite sometime.
