I get it, big paychecks and deep pockets...
I just didnt necessarily want to see anpther one of these kind of clubs... And I was hoping some of these good players (I love JR) would play in a league I can see week in and week out...

Anyway, if Juve get Higuain, Jovetic (already added Llorente)... they are going to be a tough out in UCL next season... That's a HUGE improvement over the bums they had for strikers this past season...
Or will juve fans be teased again with "top player" acquisitions

Maybe but I think Llorente is already going to be pretty damn good in Juve's style of play. People tend to have forgotten just how good he was the past couple of seasons before all the contract mess with Bilbao this season. He's also physical enough that he'll adjust more easily to Serie A than many Dutch or Spanish league players that take a long time to deal with stingier defenses.
Last year at this time people would be calling anyone getting him (especially on a free) the deal of the summer.
I think Vucinic is world class; simply a magician but he has to have a finisher playing off him as that's not his strong point at all.
However, if they get both Higuain and Jovetic, I could see Vuci being moved to pay for those. I think it would be a mistake but not as much as letting Vidal go would be.
Not sure they'll really get that much for Matri even though I think he'll be a great signing for mid table team where he plays every day and the team plays to get him chances like Cagliari under Allegri did.

Gazzetta talking about Rafa Benítez to coach Napoli.

Rodriguez and Moutinho reportedly in Monaco for physicals. They're about to get crazy paid.
just read out of the 70mm euros... 69 was for Rodriguez and the other 1 was for Moutinho... So that Porto only has to pay Sporting 25% of 1mm of the sell on clause...
Only a rumor...

Ah, the beauty of internet.
Spanish site is talking about Ancelotti wanting Cavani for RM, and there are reams of posts between Argentines and Uruguayans insulting each other over Higuaín vs. Cavani.

You´re right, he´ll be fine. Hé´s big, technically proficient, tactically aware, and not selfish.

I keep hearing he's trying to bring Verratti with him.
I posted a couple of pages back that I thought Napoli would likely end up with either Rafa or Roberto Martinez. Seems they were shot down going for Montella. I actually think Rafa would be a good hiring for them. As long as he tries to speak some dialect, Napoli fans will embrace him.
I would guess that Cavani goes to whoever between City (Dzeko) and Real (they have many) offer Napoli the best piece in return along with cash with Chelsea (Torres) as a long shot.

Naples was once part of the Spanish Crown, surely there´s no problem understanding the waiter, three centuries later.

I've heard some more rumors about Jesus coming to the EPL again, anything from your side Dandy?
I feel like he's going to stay in la liga forever though.

Laying low, that´s his MO.

Navas
I´d imagine his people are waiting to see what shakes out at RM.
Were this all to go to hell in a handbasket, I could see him going to England, which is what his people are saying.
I could also see him at Monaco.
His style suits the EPL, but I´d imagine the worries about the officiating, and his freaking out over there (that´s a MAJOR culture shock for a country boy from Andalusia), as in depression, are very warranted.

The rumor is Man City because of Pelligrini right?

I think RM´s got Isco tied up, and possibly Bale, depending upon the presidential elections and coaching outcome, and their fire sale.
Coentrao should be going to Chelsea, if you believe the reports, but not for €18M, as the English press is saying.
