check up on transfer market strategy

it's only rumors,but they've been consistent and bear weight...

1) Zambrotta is expendable,especially after Camoranesi had such a good start at the club.
the target? Cristiano Zanetti,which would allow to let Davids go without regrets in January

2) Salas has become a luxury and an impending lockerroom problem after the purchase of Di Livio,both club and player are interested in a new home for him

now,i have reservations about both moves

Zambrotta definetely has a technical edge on Camoranesi,and it's not like Zanetti can make up for that...
besides,the Inter ballwinner plays in a more central position than the bullpit,and he's not dangerous in attack
IMO the midfield is poor enough (technically) as of now,and these moves will only further stress the problem

but to partially compensate the loss of Zambo,Juventus are allegedly trying to strike a deal with Barcelona that will bring Puyol (+ cash) to Turin for Salas

which takes us to the second topic of this post,the logjam at forward; i'm always glad when i see excellent players moved out from the bench of a big club to find some playing time elsewhere,and delight us watchers; Salas is one of those players
my reservations are about the opportunity to basically replace the Chilean with Di Vaio: seems like Lippi wants a team built on physical strenght and quick counterattacks (the recipe of Trapattoni at the WC,btw); i doubt it's the best solution for a club which can afford the best,and should look for the best,midfield included...
if Trez is not available (not that far-fetched),Juve are left with no true specialist in the box

(btw,Tottenham is also linked to Salas)

 

good assumption
