What's the most you guys believe Roma will actually offer for Pastore? How much is he really worth before it becomes a bad investment?

Intrigued by Jose Angel, I only saw a few games of Sporting but they played very good football. He should fit in very well under LE.

Heard Jose Angel is signing for Roma.

Will he become an automatic starter or be on bench for Riise?
We have lack of info on how good he is, But I think from look of it he will be starter as I doubt another LB will arrive.

Riise could be on his way out to either newcastle or blackburn. he had 3 years with us, 2 bad ones and 1 good one. his defending is poor, i remember when we lost to inter 5 - 3 this year, eto was infront of him and he was sitting and watching him shoot the ball and score. it was what changed the match, we missed chance to score and eto scored that 2 - 1 and everythign went inter's way.
also vs juve we lost coz of him.he lost krasic who scored the volley.
even the sampdoria game 2009 - 2010 which lost us scudetto 2 - 1 , it was him who lost pazzini for the equalizer 1 - 1.

We need to change Riise more then we need to change Cassetti.

And he scored in Turin, scored against both Milan clubs, in the same games where Vucinic and co kept missing open nets and easy one on ones. Riise also made it to top 3 in the team for assissts in 2009.

We lost the scudetto not becuase Riise let Pazzini score but becuase Mr. Vucinic selfish and fragile mentality let us down in the most important game of the year. Go watch the game again and see how the whole team collapsed at the end of the first half after Perrotta almost punshed Vucinic in the face when he got fed up with his childish attitude that night.

But of course for someone like you it is always easy to ignore the big picture and concentrate on what fits with your fanboyish agenda.

Riise is not perfect but he is a hardworking player with the character of a champion, I rather have him in my team than 11 wannabe superstars primadonna like the ones you keep sucking on their dicks here day in and out.

Sabatini: «De Rossi rimane. Angel? Chiudiamo lunedì»

Il ds della Roma: «Non cederemo Daniele per prendere Pastore. Vucinic vuole andare via, ma noi non abbiamo intenzione di venderlo. Borriello non è sul mercato. Stiamo per definire l'acquisto del terzino spagnolo. La prossima settimana incontreremo l'Ajax per Stekelenburg»

Sabatini " I dont want to sell De Rossi to buy Pastore, I dont want to weaken the midfield. Vucinic confirmed he wants to leave, but we have no intention of selling him. Borriello is on the market. We will close Jose Angel transfer on Monday. Next week we will meet Ajax for Stekelenburg".
 
Riise is terrible. He's had one good season and 2 really bad ones. The sooner he gets benched or leaves, the better.

Speaking of the big picture - you do realise we wouldn't have been anywhere near the first spot that season without Vucinic carrying the whole attack almost on his own for most of the season and scoring a bunch of decisive goals? So blaming him for losing the title is short-sighted and illogical.

If any team wants Vucinic, let them put a price above 20 million so that we start talking.
If any team will offer us below 20 m, then I would say we keep Vucinic one more year and sell him next year if he doesnt want to renew.

I am aware of all this but that doesn't change the fact the he choked miserably when the pressure was on. When things like these happen, you don't go randomly and shift the blame on the left back. The team, the fan and the whole city put their trust in him to perform for 3 more games and he couldn't help but choke in the biggest night of the season and he brought down the team with him. And it is not like that was uncharacteristic of him, if anything when the pressure is on watch for Vucinic to crack first. *cough* Arsenal *cough*

Are you back on board again?
No, although I am sure you'd love it. :kiss:

What? If anything, Vucinic's better in the big games on average than in most others. Look at his CL games record. Two isolated example you cherry picked doesn't change that.
 
We are looking for quality players, not signing players for sake of siging like Klose or Reto Ziegler or Pirlo.
We are close to signing Stekelenburg,and if he arrives we will have best keeper in the league as Buffon and Cesar both are finished.
So now Pirlo is not a quality player?

His contract expires in June, if Ancelotti is coming he might as well join us. It would be dream come true to see him wearing our shirt. One of my fave players around.
LOL
