    Still a shame Osvaldo couldn't behave. Shows other teams still rate him still despite the trouble.

    That rather begs the question of whether there is a "situation" to be fixed.

    99% Osvaldo is gone. I just can't see him staying.

    I never realised he'd moved to Kuban Krasnodar. Not disappointed we didn't sign him.

    Right now I like the look of Lyon's Alexandre Lacazette. Not only is he having a really good season, but he also looks a bit like a young Guly.

    I can see him going on loan and then coming back.

    Well, yeah, if pointing out that his scoring record isn't great means not rating him. I'll also point out that Messi isn't great at heading and David Beckham wasn't ever very good at dribbling so I suppose I don't rate either of them.

    From Italian journalist Alfredo Pedulla: http://www.alfredopedulla.com/articoli/37472-esclusiva_osvaldo_domani_offerta_juve_e_il_tott


    "Tomorrow Juve will present an offer to the Southampton to Osvaldo. There was a long meeting today, with possible upgrade in the evening. Southampton opened at onerous loan with guaranteed redemption, with Vucinic and/or outgoing Qadri Juve continues to check the situation carefully. Momentarily rejected Valencia, received another offer from the Premier: many clues lead to Tottenham on the hunt for a striker. But Juve is there and not for the spring...."

    And Rory Delap scored a bicycle kick but I'd not exactly put acrobatic volleys among his key traits.

    I'd like that. Wonder how long would it take for him to punch Lamela again :)

    Vucinic? I'm not against signing him at all. I don't know why people think I am. I've outright stated that he's a very good footballer. It's just, in terms of outright goalscoring, Dixie Dean he ain't.

    He'll stay. My offer of a 50p bet to go to into the loser's charity box of choice is still open, as CBK didn't take it up.

    Sky Sports in Italy reporting that Juventus will make a formal offer to loan Osvaldo with an option to buy in the summer.
