Question for the Eds have we ever been interested in Machisio (pardon the spelling from Juve), He looks better than Vidal to me and would Juve sell him for the right money.

Shahram {Ed002's Note - No and he is not for sale.}

Believable1 Unbelievable9

Why is Marchisio not for sale? Could Juve ever be tempted with a Nani + cash deal?

Agree0 Disagree0

He may look better than vidal, but they play completely different roles, marchisio is more of a playmaker, whereas vidal is a ball winner, which is what we need, not another playmaker

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree but he has some engine on him and not shy to put a tackle in. I prefer midfielders like him to a what is described as a box to box bruiser. The game is changing and its all about speed, ball retention and distribution and physically being able to hold your own. I can understand why Juve will not sell him as it seems a lot of their play goes through him.

Shahram

Ed just just curious does he have a higher value in the transfer market than Vidal if theoretically Juve was selling. {Ed002's Note - I have no interest in speculating price.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed i did not ask for a price just where does he sit in the market higher or lower than vidal. I love the long engaging replies lol.

Shahram {Ed002's Note - He sits to Vidal's right - to the left as you look at him. I hope that clarifies matters.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Shahram: Vidal does not fall in to the category of bruiser though he is good in the tackle. He can also get forward and knit play together and score goals. that's why he's apparently being looked at by so many teams

My new question is why hasn't Buttner started another game yet? Is he gonna start at Braga?

Believable32 Unbelievable2

We can only hope. Well impressed by his performances so far.

Sydney!

Agree3 Disagree0

He will start against Braga. SAF has confirmed that he will rest Rio and Evra

Bernidre

Agree4 Disagree0

He's such an exciting player, with Evra being rested for the Braga game i'm more than confident that we'll see Buttner start.

Ozwald

Agree2 Disagree0

Fergy has said evra is to be rested so i would expect so
jred

Against Braga, I hope Buttner starts, together with Anderson and Cleverly in midfield. Anderson looked sharp when he came in against Stoke, and those two together is exciting. Carrick needs a rest.

I know its the wrong post to bring it on.. but on a previous post someone wrote that Nani and Petrucci had some issues? Someone knows what that is?

Steffen

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes
Raffa

Agree0 Disagree0

Yes he will

Agree0 Disagree0

Nani apparently punched Petrucci during a training session

Agree0 Disagree0

Petrucci went in for a tough tackle on Nani in training and later in the gym Nani threw a punch.

Agree0 Disagree0

Fergie has said that the players who didn't feature against stoke will be in the frame for Braga. So does that mean lindeguard in goal with Buttner, Wooton coming in to defence? Cleverley, Kagawa, nani, young in there and chicarito in the squad?

Mez

Agree0 Disagree0

Nani throwing a punch, haha, probably did 10 wind ups before he threw it, naturally then hitting the first gym machine in it's way, before eventually arriving at Petrucci far too late to make any impact!

Sween

I think Gundogan would be a more likely signing from Dortmund. I think Hummels is bound to Barcelona. Lewandoski I think will always be linked with us but my feeling he'll stay. Gundogan played well against City and imagine the link up w/ Kagawa. I'm sure Dortmund want a steep amount of money but he is only 21.

Believable21 Unbelievable4

Can't see us signing Gundogan.

Fresh!

Sven Bender?
