Lol no way. This one will be more pricy then Jesus.
I'm not sure about that. Both have really stupid contracts. His buyout is €50M but they have an agreement that if the player decides to leave and give up his % on the sale Santos have to sell him for €18M.
Santos is offering a new contract with a €100M buyout but his agent wants to keep that €18M option or even lower it.

You forgot Cuad/Goetze but that's really what it looks like. We may eventually end up with Kovacic too.
I'll take any of those 3 as long as its possible without sales.


I really liked our 4-5-1 vs bayern. With Sandro, Pjaca, Cuadrado and Dani alves can all play the winger role.

So we dont really need that 4th striker.


Gotze will go to EPL imo. Cuadrado, i'd be surprised if conte allows it.

What really excites me is the possibilities guys like Cuadrado and Pjaca bring to our set up. I would love to see us play a 4231 at some point, even though there is an element of compromise with the way we like to set up the defense.

I am a huge fan of the 4-2-3-1.

Problem is that this sacrifices Pogba for the moment. Pogba can only play a holding role there, as he would be MUCH less impactfull on the TQ spot. And in a 4-2-3-1 the holding mids need to balance out the team


That 4-5-1 we played changed things. It takes midfielders that play much lower, doesnt use a TQ but has 2 offensive cm's and a holding one instead. Thats perfect. We would be able to play offensive wingbacks on the wing, and more defensive wing/fullbacks on the fullback. Marchisio can focus on support and the two offensive cm's, Pjanic and Pogba can mostly focus on offensive runs because the wide midfielders wont require too much defensive cover

A 4-5-1 would be brutal cause Pogba has all the freedom he wants. It does just use 1 striker, so it was ideal with Morata or Mandzukic on roids. With Dybala its different. SO i consider it a secondary formation.



As it stands, juventus has insane talent with Pogba and Dybala, also really also Pjanic. We need to absolutely get most out of that .
As it stands, thats 3-5-2.

I just cant handle that boring ass 3-5-2.the wingers would be a huge factor in 4-5-1 or 5-4-1 and Lichtsteiner is a backup for alves.if we play with three back system in Seria A alves would be as RB and cua as RM

I liked the team vs Bayern too. Pogba almost player as à second striker. Morata made à big difference though.

The rumors on the Pogba sale to Man U are relentless! Assuming this indeed is the case for EU120m, what would we do with that money! Who could we buy to make the loss easier to deal with.
