Moggi: Amauri Purchase Was Useless
Luciano Moggi was back in the headlines as he criticized Juventus for their summer transfer market which brought in players like Amauri and Poulsen.

For Moggi, the Bianconeri wasted a lot of money on nothing during the past transfer window, as the purchases of players like Poulsen and Amauri were not needed.

"The transfer market was not good because they built a midfielder of workers with Sissoko and Poulsen, without any men who could dictate the pace of the game," explained the former Juventus director.

"Also, the purchase of Amauri was superfluous for the expense. Had they still had Mutu, they could have scored the same number of goals.

"With Mutu they would have saved €25 million, which could have been invested in a midfielder and a world class defender."

Moggi acknowledged that the Old Lady is going through a difficult period of form.

"Juventus are going through a delicate moment, but they can do better," he commented. "They are facing a performance crisis with many players out of form.


Well, I was never a big fan of selling Mutu seeing as he was willing to go down with Juve and was not making that much in wages. Moggi does have a point and Juve would not be in that situation had they held on to Mutu. Letting him go to Fiorentina was a stupid move although his health was always questionable. Besides, I think they also let him go for beans. Where's TK to comment on his idol??

I'd prefer putting Ciro Ferrara in charge rather than Donadoni.
