And do you think that one CB addition a week earlier would be the difference between qualifying (in the 1st 8) or not?
The fact that we’ve known since October that we needed a CB (even Giuntoli confirmed this shortly after Bremer’s injury) and we are here on the 21st January without one is a massive failure in and of itself. He’s had three months to scout/talk to/make deals with agents/clubs/players/intermediaries etc to get this done literally the moment the window opened.

And again, you and S4tch aren’t getting my point. It’s not about 1st or 8th in the CL. I’m saying we have reached the time of the calendar where the CL has returned and nothing has still been done. Do you think it’s normal that we’re in late January and we still haven’t signed a CB? Not even one?

Anyway - We actually need two CBs really. Given Cabal’s injury in November and us stupidly giving away Danilo for nothing. And the names we’ve been linked with are a pathetic joke…it really reminds me of the disaster mercato he had in January last year.

again, this season the winter transfers aren't related to cl at all since the new signings can't be added to the cl list. it doesn't make a difference whether you sign someone on the 2nd or the 31st january when it comes to cl. i get what you're saying but repeating it a few times won't make it a valid point

again, being late with signings is not acceptable. we had 4 defenders in multiple league games ffs. but this time the cl has nothing to do with it

I don't see an answer to my question.

I'd rather see a good decision than an early one.

The issue is neither Guintoli nor Motta were ready for a team like Juventus , this new management is a mid of the pack management team. Guintoli had a little good run with Napoli and Motta with bologna and somehow Elkann thought this was the answer. The answer is gonna be when agnelli gets his backers and buys the club back until then we’re fucked

I'm not one who hates AA, but he too proper fucked the club with the superleague chaos and with trusting terrorists like Paratici etc.

But yeah, I too would rather have him in charge. At least he cares about the club.

Is it better that this fraud dont sign anyone, we save a couple of millions and leave it to the next sporting director, or he spend more money and do more damage?

You make a good point. Junktoli with money to spend is a disaster.

But we still need players for cover in that position tho. Because a bad season can become even worse if we lose more players to injury (very highly likely).

It’s the 22nd of January here in beautiful Sydney, Australia.

And still none of the two CBs we’ve needed since October/November have been signed. Totally normal.
And it shows by reactions here and in turin

We fans here on tuz - some of us at least - care more about the team than the management and the fans in the city do.

Then we wonder why serie a rights are lower for tv rights and club can’t find sponsor. Why should a sponsor bother giving money to a club that doesn’t care about strong image?

Fans of other teams would be protesting if their club was in the overall mess like this.

Time to vote with your wallet and time. Stop watching matches and buying merchandise .

He is too obsessed with erasing every single player bought before him. He is not evaluating them objectively because he's too arrogant and believes they can't possibly be good.

We absolutely needed Nico because this Mbangula guy must suck ass. Guess what, he doesn't. So you don't need Nico. You need a 9... like the one you sold to viola because you think he sucks too..

Now Nico is the 9.. just comedy
