A flagrantly wrong statement. We were never even in for Conti in the first place, meanwhile, we've made bids for Sandro even though they've been rejected. Sandro deal depends on the player himself pushing for the move. That's a bit different from "no chance", isn't it?

Lol if you think we are any chance of signing Sandro you are deluded. No hope.

I never said we're going to sign him. I'm not a prophet. But saying we have "no chance" is absurd. There are only few players we have "no chance" of signing. Lewandowski is one, and Bayern made that very clear and released a statement too and what not. Juve's stance (comments from their club president) are "we rejected a very good bid but we won't stand in his way if he wants to leave". Again, if that translates to "no chance" for you then that's your problem.

"If he wants to leave". He doesn't want to leave. Not my fault you can't read between the lines. Again, no chance.

Ah that explains. Apologies. I'll be sure to come to you when I want to find out anything about the player.

Yeah go ahead.

Did he tell you that over a pizza last night? You know nothing about whether he wants to leave or not.

If he wanted to leave he would've pushed for the move. We tried and we couldn't pull it off now the rumour is dead in the water. Zero chance of it happening. Come back to me when you can prove otherwise. Otherwise run along with your deluded mate.

Why does he need to bring the proof? You are the one claiming to know what the player wants, so in my eyes it is you who need to prove what you claim.

I don't give a sh*t what your eyes tell you. Sandro will not hand in a transfer request because he doesn't want to leave. If he wanted to leave, he would push for it. Pretty simple stuff really. Happy to admit I'm wrong if you can prove otherwise.

But how do you know he isn't pushing for it? Handing in a transfer request is pretty serious stuff and makes the player look bad in the eyes of an employer. For all we know he have said to Juventus that he would like to talk with Chelsea, and they said no. It could also be so simple that he is happy to stay but wouldn't mind to transfer to another club. As long as he isn't unsatisfied i don't think he will hand in a transfer request. It is also possible that he and Juventus has an agreement that they would stand in his way as long as they get a bid worth x millions, and that Chelsea are not willing to pay that much.

Again, why does other people have to prove stuff but not you? You haven't proved sh*t yourself.

But to argue your way:

I think Sandro wants to join us. Happy to admit I'm wrong if you can prove otherwise.

It's common knowledge that Juventus don't hold players against their will and this was also confirmed recently through a public statement. If Sandro wanted to leave and Juventus received a "significant" bid for him then they would sell him. The only reason why they would keep him is because they've established that he is happy to stay. As that is the case, they will now negotiate a new contract for him and he will be rewarded accordingly. These days players hold all the power and if they really wanted to force a move they could.

If you want proof, watch this thing unfold over the next couple of weeks when Sandro recommits to Juventus and we are left with our dick in our hands. If you have followed this well enough you'd have a good idea of which journalists are truthful and which ones are leading you on. Unfortunately I think you're having trouble making that distinction.

And as I said, maybe Sandro is happy staying and don't want to force a move away but at the same time wouldn't mine the chance to talk to other top clubs showing their interest. As I also said maybe the bids they have received doesn't match their expectations of 'significant bid'. I know that he could force a move, I'm just arguing that it is possible he doesn't want to force anything cause he is happy and if he leaves he want it to be on good terms.

Okay, so I have to watch what happens to get proof from you while I have to prove my sh*t now? Also, i don't trust journalists in general. My last sentence was just to argue the same way you do, I have no ide whether he'll come or not and that's also why i don't claim things. But yeah, since you can't proof sh*t yourself I am not going bother to argue anymore about this.

Don't worry. All will be revealed and I will be proven correct when Sandro signs a contract extension and recommits to Juve. You'll hear it straight from the horse's mouth. In the mean time, you'll just have to tune in and follow the facts as I have done. Feel free to hit me up whenever something I have said has been disproved and I'll happily admit I'm wrong. Enjoy your day pal.

I don't have to prove it as I havent made a certainty statement, you have, so put up or shut the f**k up.

I believe we are still talking to Juventus about the transfer of Sandro, and I'm sure we're confident of landing him it's just taking a while that's all... He could be announced by August.
