      Both please!

      I still think having a more physical defender/midfielder is needed, alot because I'm a big fan of the likes of Tommy Smith.
       :)

      A bit harsh on Smith that, wasn't just physical but a very good player who could pass a ball.

      Pretty sure in his first season for Juve he got voted the worst signing of the season by quite a long margin

      I think Poulsen may have eclipsed him!!

      We can reunite the "Poulsen-Melo" midfield pivot. Studs.

      Melo has been sh*te bar one month of this season ever since his time at Fiorentina. You must have a bloody good memory to recall him being 'quality' mate.

      Of course I can. Brilliant for fiorentina, and was brilliant for brazil (especially in that world cup warm up tourney the year before).

      Juve has hardly been a breeding ground for playing well for many years, Aquilani's only had 3/4 good months and the rest have been no better than melo.

      The only one who has been sh*te is poulsen, but he's always been sh*te.

      Wouldn't say harsh, the guy was a brick wall of a man but melo can rough players up and then ping a pass off 30 odd yards. I just don't think lucas is the answer at the moment. Obviously whether melo is either is questionable I suppose but I'd have him if nowt happens with M'vila, especially if juve offer him for Aqua.

      Buffon, Chiellini, Krasic, Matri, Del Pierro just a handful of players who have had pretty good seasons for Juve lately. Melo not one of them. If we sign him we'll be outdoing the Poulsen transfer and they'll definitely laugh at us even more.

      Main thing is though it's not up to me or you, but The King seems to think he's good enough.

      Plus he wouldn't have been given a new contract.

      Don't think we need Melo in all honesty.

      Wrong, was actually a good player in his younger days and had a few good seasons at Sevilla.
