He’s an Icardi fan, no discussing things with him lol

I dont think he has logged off once in past 24 hours just in here spewing hate and toxicity all day and then wanking about icardi no less. He's gone just let it go and move on. Bring on kean.

Good luck but I think he'll get less playing time there. He had it good with us, he just doesn't know it.

Not as good as with City in attempt to win CL title. And after Sunday might have thought how much playing time will I get with Max. Saving the 30 mil is needed and enough options up front for Max to win a scudetto.

Ronaldo must be motivated to go there as he reduced his wage by half

Much more motivated today than before Sunday. Combined with less motivated to play for Max.

Offering Mendy with that preface is actually beyond insulting if you ask me.

Swapping one rape allegation for 3 rape allegations, it was a no brainer really.

Not what i said stop being a big man child like you go on about ronaldo . No interest in getting into arguments with you .

Ok, I’ll stop going on about Ronaldo in the thread titled “Cristiano Ronaldo.”

What are people so obsessed with a direct replacement for Ronaldo? It can't and doesn't need to happen.

But if Kean is the only addition post Ronaldo, then this is disappointing.

Having said that, we left it too late. I'm not sure we can even get decent players in other positions at this point.

Poorly planned by the management imo.

Kean and a top level B2B CM to play alongside Locatelli would be perfect. But I don’t see it happening.

If there was ever a time for 'ultimatums', it was this summer.

We should've been firm with our stance and issued an ultimatum to Ronaldo. This should've been resolved ideally around July end or August first week.

Instead we are letting him go with a couple of days ago and with hardly any time to plan for new signings. Very unprofessional and out of character from the board.

I think without the failed transfer of Kane, Cristiano would be forced to stay.

Just 4 days remain to end of transfer market and he tell to juve that he wants to leave.
This is disrespecful to fans and the club.

It doesn't matter. Our mercato shouldn't be based on what other clubs do.

You stay or you go. Simple as. We should have been clear from the very beginning with Mendes and his lackies that we have a deadline beyond which we will not allow players to leave.

A complete joke having Nedved say outright that Ronaldo is staying and has said he is staying, immediately before kickoff of our first match of the season. Looks like a total bozo now.

So let's say CR7 leaves to City for the exact $ amount it takes to avoid negative valenza. No more no less.

Looking back on his tenure here...what do we think of it? Of the decision to sign him? Of course nobody saw Covid coming and that was a factor.

He succeeded as an individual, but we failed as a team, so he definitely has to shoulder some of the responsibility.

We played some of the worst football with Ronaldo here, and I am not saying it's his fault, but he can't be absolved of blame entirely.

It was a pleasure having him here, but I am definitely not sad to see him go.

I meant more along the lines of management's decision to sign him. You approve or no?

It was a fun experiment that brought lots of eyeballs and followers to Juve. I'm glad to be able to say we had Ronaldo playing for us, but I never really grew very fond of him in the time he was here. He never felt like 'my' player, but a guy playing for himself who happened to be wearing my team's shirt.

I don't agree with the people who say that we failed him or that he failed us. He was simply the right player at the wrong time. Sure he scored a lot of goals, some very memorable and clutch, but he never elevated the team's overall level beyond what we saw before him, partly because of his massive salary that restricted us from strengthening the rest of the squad.

It's impossible to say whether we would have been more or less successful if we'd spent his transfer fee and salary on other areas of the squad, and I don't blame the management for taking the once in a lifetime opportunity to have such a generational player in the team.

Thanks for the memories, but I won't shed a tear and I'm ready to move on.

In hindsight, I disapprove. They created an imbalance within the team and the locker room. They bought a very expensive player, a top top player, but failed to provide him with adequate support. Retrospectively, the experiment was a failure.

It was a move our management had to do, considerint he was leaving RM and was willing to come here. It’s once in a lifetime chance, which was more of a success than fail, even expectations were high. Winning UCL in 3 year span for any club is difficult, if it had to be won straight away. We just weren’t good enough as a team and seeing other clubs making 100m signings left and right, it ain’t no wonder why we couldn’t make it with him. It was more like one last hurrah for the core to have the success, for Chiellini and all these guys. It’s unfortunate that it ends this way, but i guess it’s better for both parties(depending what we will get in return).

Im excited about Chiesa, I believe in De Ligt, Locatelli is here etc. Those are wonderful players, i’ll keep rocking my Chiesa jersey but at the same time, i’ll remember that GOAT was here.
