Man, i understand. To be honest, i dont want to sound pesimistic or depressive but nothing excites or bothers me anymore. I think i lost hope long ago that we would win CHL. If that shit happens, ill be ok, whatever.
In all honesty though bro. If we keep Sarri, what do you do? Seems less likely that he’d ask for those players (except Arek, who is okay) seeing as the De Ligt move was a lot of his asking.
Seriously bro, i dont give two fucks about Sarri. Man earns millions. And you think i care about defending him. I dont care if Juve is last team he trained. The whole purpose to watching football is fun, can you not say we aint entertained?
The only positive thing about this is the fact that i will go on the beach without being worried if some bar will show our game vs City and be destroyed by them.

If we keep him, I watch less Juventus that’s for sure :/
Regardless of whether he stays or goes, Blind Freddy, can tell you that we need to lower the average age of the squad, bolster the midfield and fullback positions and sign another striker. We need quality players in all of those positions too, not stop-gaps.
Not sure if he was on the bench but I'd have put Vrioni on for Higuain at HT. Young players don't have experience or skill like an established big player, but they have legs, drive and desire. Those mean just as much in this current football. Higuain was filling space tonight. Sarri was hoping that maybe a ball would break for him in the area and he could hold the ball up, that's all he can do now.
We so rarely try young players in difficult situations, it's not a very Italian thing.

I mean I agree with you but as I was speaking about with Alen, this window is surely going to be one of the most difficult ever given the economic situation and also our needs and availability. It’s surely going to come down to trading with scraps.

Imo the best thing we can do is try and repeat the Tevez/Bentancur swap by shifting Matuidi, Higuain and Khedira back to clubs in their homeland and taking a good young player who is going to fight for that chance.
Part of why Bentancur is such a success is due to his desire, he’s not the most gifted centre mid I’ve seen by a long shot. If anything then at least we clear the wage bill.
