    Again, considering all things, I really don't think so. Pogba and others didn't develop at Dortmund, they developed here. There's no law that says Dortmund>Juve at developing young guys, at least not without context. That is usually connected to the fact clubs like Dortmund can offer more...

    Fair, I respect your opinion, just agree to disagree. He idolized Ronaldo, he was already very close to coming once and we have an excellent relationship with his agent. And it's not like we have a terrible track record with young players. Pogba, Dybala, Morata, Kean, De Ligt, Bentancur all...

    So you think if we told him come be a starter with Ronaldo, Dybala, De Ligt etc. he would've still chosen Dortmund?

    He wouldn't come because we wouldn't guarantee him he would play over Higuain. We should've done that, it was a no brainer, thus we bungled it. Really don't know what's so hard to understand.

    You just keep proving my point over and over again with these links. I did not acknowledge that myself. I said the opposite now, and I said it back then. Ronaldo and Dybala had nothing to do with him, he could've played with them just like Higuain played with them.

    1. Mandzukic left in December 2019. Haaland signed for Dortmund in January 2020. MM was not registered for CL, he was a non factor in all this. 2. That is a quote about moving to Juventus from Norway in 2018 and his father said he was not ready for that so he went to Salzburg. It was widely...

    1. We did not have Mario, he already left. 2. That's what I mean by bungling. Higuain was already on two failed loans the season before and it was obvious to any sensible human being he was done. There is absolutely no excuse for not guaranteeing the spot to Haaland.

    Dybala had nothing to do with it, he played with CR and Higuain together under Sarri. Higuain was starting only bc Sarri was here. He had no business being in the roster let alone starting.

    So how is not guaranteeing him a starting spot over retiring Higuain not bungling?

    I have a thing for Cavani I admit (and I was right btw), but Costa is just a stopgap since we clearly don't want to invest in a more permanent solution. And I don't think there is one right one. Except for Haaland (who I was also obsessed with and we bungled that like crazy) best strikers are...

    Seriously, why not just get Diego Costa on a short deal? He cannot be worse than Scamacca

    Incredibly important we get both. With Pogba's contract expiring in 2022 really shouldn't take (much) over 100m to get them both.
