    Non-Juve Transfer news (official or rumors)

    From what very little I've watched of him he's good catch, reminds me of Kulusevski a bit for some reason. Racked good numbers in Belgium, he's very tall and quite speedy, so if he reaches his potential he'll be a big talent.

    Arthur

    Confident he can have a decent season in a mid-tier Spanish team, more suited there. Haggle the wages down as much as possible with a buyout clause and ship his ass there ASAP.

    If the fee of 15m is true that Di Marzio reports, then Paredes is an ok panic signing, as long as the wages are low. With Pogba and McKennie out it won't hurt to have another midfield addition since Arthur is leaving too. I'm confident Fagioli and Rovella would do just as fine for us though, but...

    Dušan Vlahović

    Confident he'll score goals with service. However, with Danilo and Sandro as our main full-backs, with Pogba/McKennie/Chiesa injured and with Dybala & Morata leaving there is absolutely no service to be provided. Our hopes rely solely on fossils like Cuadrado and Di Maria to feed him crosses...

    Udinese sold De Paul the minute a 35m offer arrived, they could've easily haggled for a way higher price. Udogie will be gone the minute an appropriate offer arrives, just like everyone else that has managed to come through there. Good full-backs are probably the hardest players to come by...

    Summer mercato thread 2022-23 season

    We really just need good offensive left-back like Udogie and mercato chiuso. Splashing cash on the likes of Zaniolo is useless when there is a gaping hole in the squad and we're playing with 10 men every game. Sandro cost us so many games with his absolutely horrendous mistakes and he offers...

    [Friendly] Real Madrid 2-0 Juventus [July 30th, 2022]

    Bruh, we spend way more on transfers than Real Madrid. If you go look up the transfer expenditure of the last years, we have the biggest in Europe, even higher than the likes of Manchester City...... While Real Madrid was calmly and slowly collecting a handful of still fairly cheap promising...

    Pretty insane to think that we initally paid 75mil + 10.5mil to Raiola when we signed him. We're pretty much just getting our money back and freeing up his massive wages. We should milk this as much as we can.

    Holding out for anything less than 90m would be foolish. We are financially not forced to sell, and Chelsea is stacked with cash with a horrible CB shortage in a bidding war. If we have to let go of our only consistent CB then we need the money to find at least two high quality replacements.

    Apples and oranges. Werner was the target man for Leipzig while Lewandowski plays this position at Bayern. Consistently hitting 15+ goal contributions a season for a winger is very good, especially when you constantly have to rotate and don't play every game of the season.

    FIFA WORLD CUP QATAR 2022™ - Qualifiers

    VAR is probably the biggest one in recent years, if you can call that a rule change. One thing that should be changed IMO is the clock stopping when the ball is not in play. Time wasting is a massive problem and would be solved instantly with 30 minutes halves where the clock stops. Pretty...

    He obviously must have talent if we've signed him, but the sample size with him in top flight football is literally non-existent so to regard him immediately as a potential starter and third CB for us, which Chiellini was when fit, is absolutely baffling to me. He has only one good season in...

    Summer mercato thread 2022-23 season

    Gatti is a fucking bricklayer from Frosinone with 1 good season in Serie B, insane how people just slot him in Chiellini's place without a second thought. Kimpembe is a just a plain, average defender with no exceptional abilities based on all I've seen of him and his stats. Not an exciting...

    Frenkie de Jong is being pushed out on the market by Tier 2 Barca transfer rumours. Reasons are both poor financial situation and Frenkies poor performances.

    Awesome, let's just sign average garbage for "backup" and end up playing them the whole season when the main guy gets injured.

    I hate the Zaniolo rumours. Every time I see him play I am underwhelmed, his stats seem underwhelming, he does not fit our system and he's had two cruciate ligament ruptures in one freaking year. Can anyone explain to me like I'm five years old why on earth it would be a good idea to pay big...

    Paulo Dybala

    I don't mind losing him too much. It was a bit cold how he's been treated, but Arrivabene is completely right, we cannot build a team around a player that is injured or doesn't perform 50% of the time, we need someone we can rely on for 90% of the time. I think being injury-free and consistent...
