How do you not accept 30M for Marchisio? I mean, I like the guy, but if I add 10M to that sale, I can get LUIS SUAREZ?

Uh, ok.

Doubt it. Asamoah, Vidal, Pogba, Pirlo, Maronne/Padoin/Giach, New CM
Looks pretty stacked to me for a 3 man mid.

But honestly, for 30 MIL!! Come on, Suarez is almost there.

So Maronne/Padoin/Giach. are equal now? Not really. We all know Pirlo will need to be rested more in upcoming seasons, good to have Pogba. I doubt Asamoah could replace Marchisio in the long run.

What would selling Marchisio solve? What would we gain? Some money? Some more mediocre players?
Whether you like Marchisio or not he is an important player and a club icon. Marchisio doesnt always have his greatest game and it seems as though he has an injury but Claudio will only leave if he wanted to. If we sold Marchisio , Marotta would probably get another cm. who would fill his role? Asa? Currently we are playing with a 6 man midfield, marchisio is necessary in the midfield. If we sold him and say we got 30m we could no way we would buy suarez. Suarez will probably be 50m+. Just stop with these rumours it wont happen. Why didnt claudio leave when he could have gone to bayern? Because neither thr club nor him want to leave/get rid of him

6 man midfield? That's because we have no goddamn strikers, and if you count the wingbacks then yes we have a 6 man midfield.

Listen, I'd be happy if Cheesio stayed, but what I am saying is that he is not indispensable, at the right price I'd show the nigga the door. But if he wants to stay and the club doesn't want to sell that's another story, but saying we're never going to sell Cheesio because he is "important" is non-sense we've sold/let go much more important players than him in the past.

Silly argument. I for one don't think we'll sell him, nor I think clubs would bid so much money for him. But oh well,

you don't know that, you're only guessing. There are players who's contract is expiring and could be bought for much less money (Nani). Money could also be used to fund Ibrahimovic maybe. 30mln is not a small amount of money, crazy talents can be bought. Lamela is a dickhead maybe but he was bought for 17mln (no, you don't have to say how he doesn't have the right attitude, I'm using his goals and assists as an example). I'm just guessing, but so are you. Who would replace him? Let's be honest here, Vidal - Pirlo - Pogba looks more than decent when they play, while we'd also have Asamoah to rotate in midfield. We wouldn't feel his absence as some say.
