The Morata situation is a little confusing. I mean, from Morata's point of view he would either want to stay at Juventus or go back and play for Real Madrid. He has made it clear he doesn't want to be used as a Pawn. If Real Madrid say they want him back, I doubt Morata would say no - it is his boyhood club.
Its not Marotta's style to go against a player's wishes. We had better get Cavani if that happens though. If we sell Morata and Zaza and end up with Cavani and Berardi - I could probably live with that.
On the AM, a deal could probably be done with Bayern Munich by using Coman as part of a Gotze deal - you know the deal that didn't pan out last year.
Also in terms of deals - (although extremely unlikely), if Morata goes back to Real Madrid, presumably we could do a deal for Isco if Isco is willing to make the move.
I also think we should consider using Pereyra as a pawn in a deal (particularly if we end up with Gomes). He still has some value but I can't see him lifting the quality of the side. Could use him as a pawn with Sassuolo in deals we do with them.
In my view Pereyra and Hernanes are both expendable.
ABout Morata , we will see.
The Gotze boat sailed and will not return IMO. When he said he would prefer to stay in germany instead of playing with us, all faded away.
Hernanes and Pereyra are expendable. Pereyra case is sadder because he showed promise last year but he has made ZERO impact in this whole season. I dont like that.
Pereyra is expandable if we continue with the 3-5-2 formation!
If we turn to 4-3-1-2 then Pereyra is our only guy who can play behind the forwards (unless you want Dybala to play there)

BTW Gabriel Jesus how many games did he play in 2015 and how many goals and assists in 2015 same question about 2016 (I know he is very young and stats for 2015 might be almost non existent)
Fiat & Adidas are sponsoring the move...
Ok, this Gabriel Jesus player looks very promising. We know this brazilian dudes are all hype sometimes....but Gabriel seems to have a good balance of flair and fancy and explosiveness. Like someone said he remembers Tevez in the way he moves, but a more technical/less of a bulldozer Tevez. Like a technical variant of him.
Ill be honest, we dont know if he is the real deal or just another young bluff... BUT, from the vid shown..he seems to be an interesting gamble for real. If somehow fiat and adidas can sponsor the move and we can pay for him...i think we should pounce just for the sake of securing that talent. He seems to be really good.
Is he a winger or he can play as a treq? thats all i want to know.
This summer is crucial. The way Marotta and Allegri are talking I think we're in for a big one.
I think we will see some big moves, specially in case we lose morata. And even if we keep all our players (maybe not cuadrado as he is even tougher to retain than morata), expect some interesting addition because the truth is we need extra push to compete in the CL. This current team was able to compete against bayern but not to beat it. We need players to beat them, and for that we need at least 1 more difference maker.
So yeah, expect some juicy moves. The time has come anyways. Allegri himself said we need to aim to win the CL, not to reach the semis or quarters.
