    Cuadrado is still a good player and has serviceable skills, the major problem is for Colombia he seems to refuse to play as a roll player and do the dirty work and play off the ball etc. You can see his mentality is I play for Juve I'm the big dog when he plays for colombia and when he plays for Juve his attitude is I'm smol dog I need to do what needs to be done for the old lady. Unfortunately I don't know that it's compatible and that he's going to gracefully accept he needs to be Juve Cuadrado.

    So ironic. He has been able to be such a success in Seria A specifically BECAUSE he plays his role so specifically for Juve...

    But we still called Ospina despite him making such a move and it's only recently that he is no longer called up.....

    One of the most active Colombians in Europe and important players for Juventus . Hate or love him for the national team u can’t deny how successful he was in Europe and even for us in yellow( some of ya most have forgot ).

    Juve decided to let him go, he's been kinda crap for them too for a while now and I think he's also on high wages

    the first team i've seen interested so far is Fenerbache

    but Fabrizio Romano says there's lots of teams interested, hopefully he stays within Serie A

    Not very surprised they are letting him go. Especially cause they are sealing the deal with Weah who is younger and can pretty much do a similar job.

    Potentially, certainly from a prestige and earning standpoint and at this point he has nothing left to prove. He's been a mega success in Seria A and star at two world cups, this is gravy.

    For our purposes, I'm very curious where they will play him and what kind of minutes he'll be given. What's the forecast from our Inter fans?

    I wonder if they will use him as a utility player given his versatility like they did Ashley Young covering whenever they need a spark down the flank but conserving legs. I think that's his best application on the NT too.

    thats true.. his family surely influenced the decision of styaing in Italy as well. And if we are lucky, maybe he saw a good chance to finally become the one reference player for our NT and for that, he wants/has to keep playing in a competitive league like the Serie A.

    Random as hell. I was ready to see him in saudi

    As for where he'll play. Clearly it'll be as a part of their 352 formation as one of the wingbacks

    Interesting, so he is competing with Dumfries for that spot.

    Wow he's gonna catch a lot of hate from the Juve fans. Inter love to rotate their fullbacks a lot, almost every game they will sub the fullbacks so even if he's second choice he'll get plenty of minutes from the bench which probably suits him well at this point in his career.

    Playing perspective its about the perfect match for him, wing back is his best position.
