We NEEED QUALITY now what's Marotta's doing? bringing depth. Batshuayi c'mon........
Dunno about Andrè Gomes is it worth it? Coudn't we investe in one of those famous offensive midfielders we followed ??
I really don't get it....oh well i get it. Getting unproven players will cost less in wages... but that's not what a big team should do when it needs to bring quality to step up.

    I think people need to understand that the "uncertainty" around Pogba has nothing to do with him being at Juve. There is "uncertainty" around Messi, Neymar, Ronaldo and the likes as well because those are the names that sell.

    If we want to be free of transfer rumors we need to have a team full of Padoins. In todays football every player and their dog will get drawn to transfer speculation such is the business nowadays.
    And even if he went to Real Madrid or Barcelona there would be rumours in a year or two that 'random rich English team' wants him and he want to play in TBLITW, or the other way around, or he wants PSG, it never stops for that calibre. Like you say, even the clearly untouchable Messi has been linked with moves now and then over his career.

    The reality of football is that there are no impossible moves, and writers know this, but what they don't cater for is the probability of each one. They can say write anything. We all think that Pogba will leave some day and for a lot of money, so there is no reason to not regurgitate the rumour every summer. Personally speaking I don't see him leaving this summer, not with a driven CL tilt in the plans of the club. Next summer I wouldn't be so sure.

    Can we rule out Pogba saying he wants to leave in the middle of the mercato like Vidal ?
    No, that's the reality. And when you consider how important the team spirit and cohesion is and has been for the club now and in the past I agree with the philosophy of the directors to sell ANY player who doesn't feel like his head is completely there for Juventus. You might quieten them down over the course of the season by rejecting such demands, depending on the professionalism of the individual, but can you really expect their best, that extra bit to push us over the line like we have done so many times this season? Ultimately you are just delaying the inevitable if a player has his mind set on a certain club or league or mega salary, whatever motivates him.

    Next rumour: James 30m (morata fee) + buyback option 50m

    RM is gonna make a lot of money with us :sergio:
    James sign whatever the price!!!

    We NEEED QUALITY now what's Marotta's doing? bringing depth. Batshuayi c'mon........

    Batshuayi - Did you watch his games? he seems quite a good player although I admit I havent seen a lot from him myself... His stats also confirm he is pretty good and could be a good alternative if we lose Morata!
    Andre Gomes - I admit I dont know a lot about him but anyway 35M for a guy who doesnt score much/ doesnt assist much I`d pass on him!

    Mascherano? for fair price sure why not!

    Juventus transfer target Medhi Benatia noted “if I have to leave Bayern Munich, then I’ll leave” and criticised their Mats Hummels chase.

    The former Roma defender’s future seems to be elsewhere, especially after Bayern confirmed they are in negotiations with Borussia Dortmund centre-back Hummels.

    “I have no problem, if I have to leave Bayern Munich, then I’ll leave, but first I want to end this season well,” he told Sky Sport Italia.

    “I am experiencing a very important moment of my career and I won’t be like the club who decided to talk about the transfer market before a Champions League semi-final…”

    He's a goner.

    He is quality, but gotta question his character after he left Roma in very bad way, it's owner calling him pathological like . And now he is acting like a semi bitch while still being a Bayern player.

    I get looking out for your own interest and certain ego comes into being at this level, but some professionalism is a must.
