Now to Juventus. Goal keeping: Best goal keeper for the last decade is obviously Gianluigi Buffon doubling as the most expensive goal keeper. Every team will be comfortable having Buffon in post any day. Hes supported by Storari and Rubinho. They are good back up for Buffon especially the former but you might consider their age which will minimally affect the squad. They can keep plans for a young goal keeper though for the future. Defence: Juventus strong department has been the defence. Technically they deploy a 3-5-2 formation but 5 back when defending with quick and swift laterals in Asamoah and Caceres. They have options in Ogbonna who can play on the laterals and as a CB. Isla, Lichsteiner and Peluso cant be left out. They are very good and can be relied on any time. In their central defence, they have some resolute and robost defenders like Chiellini, Barzagli and Bonucci. Juventus shouldnt have problems at the back for next season if they can maintain them. Midfield: juventus are blessed with creative midfielders in Pogba, Marchisio and Pirlo. Pirlo is 30+ but he always make the saying the older the better very real. He has 2+ years to play. Vidal is a tireless worker for Toto Contes men and not sure they will be thinking of selling him. Simeone Pepe too has been a great servant to the Turin club. Juventus are really short of midfielders and they need an add-on. Alexander Song is languishing on the bench of Barcelona and will have enough playing time at Juventus to revamp his qualities we used to know of him before moving to Barcelona. Attack: Juventus have as many as six striking options. Tevez, Osvaldo, Llorente, Vucinic, Giovinco and Quagriarella. They need to off load about 3 which in my opinion should be Quagriarella, Vucinic and Llorente so that they can buy players to occupy their midfield shortage. The other 3 are good enough to carry them along for next season.
