That is the immediate gain, but we would be much less exposed to the risk of Morata leaving for RM next summer. If that happens we have NO player for a position were our coach often deploys a player OUT of position.
I understand our coaches see the benefits of Pogba cutting in, but he can't be a front liner. He has an amazing diagonal pass with his right foot though.
PS: I am not so keen on signing Cuadrado in the winter unless we have a huge discount or he proves he can play in the left too. In the summer we have to evaluate the whole Berardi/Cuadrado debacle.
I am a fan of Cuadrado and I always rated him but he has two major flaws!
1. When he goes forward he will always go through the line as he just cant cut inside! Smart players knows that and knows how to guard him just like in our last CL game
2. He doesnt seem to know how to make smart decisions - seems like a brainless player!
Apart from those 2 he is a great player extremely fast with great dribbling skills and while he hasnt really showed his shooting skills basing on the past he doesnt shoot bad at all...
As for Berardi he is very think player which could let other player out muscle him which will make him fall easily.. Unlike Cuadrado he is a player who has brain in him!
The best thing is to have both Cuadrado and Berardi if we decide to play a winger based formation so Berardi could develop without too much pressure on him!
As for Reus he would be amazing here! a smart player who can assist and score! exactly what we need! too bad Goetze decided to stay at Bayern as he could have been amazing for us!
Saponara - I dont think he is a Juve level type of player. He is a small club star but just another fish in a top club! would rather see us get Vazquez if we go for a medium profile player.
Hamsik is a player I really like - He can play AM when needed and CM when needed - He is a player who I`d like to see us getting
As for the summer I want to see us doing the impossible and bring Verrati home
