I think you can get loans outside of the transfer window. Plus Ballack would be eligible to play in the CL.

Right now I don't think we need a player like Ballack.

We need one more central back 4 player to strengthen the squad. The best possible instant solution is to negotiate a season long loan to get Cannavaro back to Turin.

Finally, as it seems I appeared to be unfairly criticising Sergio Almiron yesterday, let met at once say that I have the utmost regard for all he did towards getting Empoli in to 7th finish in last years Serie A championship. He is unquestionably the kind of box to box midfielder we need and looks to have all the attributes that are associated with wearing the bianconeri shirt, especially committment and versatility.

Read about Ballack this morning.

Almiron us fine, every player has the odd off game and when Tiago is finally on a full tank we might see some sparks too.

Cannavaro is 35.

Blaming the management for the players who came to the club is not totally fair. Juventus is out of Europe, just acquired the Delle Alpi and fresh out of Serie B. Lost a lot of sponsorship money. television revenue and competing with Real, Barca, Inter and so forth is not easy. Hindsight is wonderful ask any gambler.
Nobody seems to remember that Juventus this season signed Buffon, 3zeguet, Camoranesi, Nedved and Pierino.

Actually management did say that extending the contracts of those five was their best transfer move. And do not forget the sixth - Zebina!

Yes brother, I light candle on Monday for our Gai...he was best man we ever had...so I suppose God wanted him to be in heaven...

I dont know about Cannavaro...if we can get title this season I think he would help us...but I dont see Juve racing for lo scudetto so we dont need Fabio.

Ivanovic would be great signing...with Criscito, he would form most talented central back partnership in Europe...

It would be great to see Ballack at Comunale...as steward, or he even can be man that sold drinks at half time!!!

People, we are serious football club...Ballack can play for small clubs like Chelsea or Inter...not for big dogs...

As good as Ballack is, he is not needed as we already have Almiron and Tiago in his position. I'd be more concerned about the defence if Zebina is getting a game, and also looking for long-term replacements for Del Piero and Nedved.

Ballack is overrated. Ever since he played a blinder against Saudi Arabia for Germany many moons ago. He's would only be marginally more useful to us than Zebina.

Any news on Zebina's ban? is it hefty?

I can not b elieve I am saying this about a player in my beloved Juve jersy but let us hope it is hefty..

Ballack rumours continue coupled witj Lampard arrival neaxt season.

We have no hope in hell of signing Lampard. He is still using us to get a big money deal. He wouldnt mind going abroad but his missus is absolutely dead set against it. Never gonna happen.

We will get higher calibre players once we have CL footy though so the sooner the better.

And I agree, we dont need Ballack we need defenders who dont fall asleep.

I'm confident, and I hope Lampard will never ever play for Juventus. His salary demands are ridiculous, and simply wouldn't justify signing him.

Now that Nocerino is crocked Tiago, the mysterious object, will have to play. So far not impressed. I see that both Tiago and Andrade were benched by Portugal.

Marchisio of course is out on loan.

Dylan, Surely Tiago has not become an average player overnight!!!!

BTW, how long is Nocerino expected to be out of action?

1 month so Nocerino will miss the Mulita as well

Boumsong's 2 months on the sidelines! Cause for a celebration!

And news Ivanovic sounds promising. Let's hope he is as good as he's tipped to be should he arrive.

Ivanovic is better player than any of our defenders...you will see...

Problem is that Chelsea can pay more...

Some Russian team will offer big money for Seba Giovinco...if they sold him it will be end of our hope that someone will replace capitano...

Stupid papers brought story about us asking for Gilardino...according to reports 18 million and Palladino...

I think we can include Buffon in the deal as Gilardino is probably worth 100 millions

Also if you know some doctor, send number to Ronaldo...fat merda is out and no one can say what type of injury he picked...

Brother, I am mad about one thing...after all, we needed few serious defenders to win title...it is clear now as Milan is without striker and Roma is only serious rival to us...

But probably we will run out of steam in second half...

It was wrong emoticon

I hope all offers for Giovinco are rebuffed. Especially for Barcelona. He is Juve future.

CSKA are offering 20m for Sebastian Giovinco fratello and I am adraid Alex can't do the season anymore age and knocks have taken their toll. Nesta and Totti were right in quitting the azzurri, Totti has been saying there are too many games for years.

Any way Donadoni is crap.

Zebina, hopefully, will get a long suspension and with Boumsong out for 2 months Buffon can sleep at night.

Ivanovic is the business but as Drughi says the Russians are loaded.

Roma are, currently, the best in Serie A, Juventus are showing great character that means we are playng crap and will kick the f..k out of anybody who stands in our way.

Now what is this I read about Ronaldo, growth hormones and CONI?

Drughi some old Gobbi say we are like Heriberto's Juventus, Armata Brancaleone but won the title from Interdetti on the last game.

Roma is the most gifted team. It will be really tough against them in the Olimpico...

Milan will suffer without Kaka.
