Juventus Look to Nani to Solve Winger Dilemma
Nani does not seem to have been that skillful winger we saw before for United. Moyes has hardly played him consistently enough and with Ashley Young who can dive for the planet Earth now scoring, Nani's time at United may finally be up. Juventus look to be the place of salvation for the Portuguese as they look to get a real quality winger.
Nani has been a dude I have always liked. Some have insulted me by saying I think he is a better footballer than Cristiano. Yes, he is. What he can do with the ball, especially when he is playing well is amazing. Oh, and he can also create space for a shot off his own back and put it in the roof of the net. That is why Nani gets my vote of confidence.
For Juventus, both Asamoah and Lichsteiner are not up to the standard of Nani. They do an OKAY job, but don't have the speed, skill or crossing ability of Nani. Also, they do not possess the goalscoring abilities as well. How many times have you seen either of them cut in and strike a ball in the top corner? Nope. none.
This is a player Juventus should go for. They are a team that relies HEAVILY on wingers, and I even suggested they should have gone in for Alexis Sanchez. That's fine, they missed out and so did Alexis. NANI, is who Juventus MUST get as they look to defend their title and maybe actually finally win the Champions League that continues to elude them.
