my biggest regret is having seen morata leaving so far. but with a proper replacement, and holding on to our starters, this still might be a terrific mercato.

We might have a completely new attack if it happens as if Mario leaves and Zaza will certainly leave if we get Higuain as it would mean 25M or 30M for Zaza - We might get Immobile as a sub but we would still need another forward
Dybala-Higuain with bench Immobile and Pjaca isnt enough we need at least 5 forwards... so either Mandzukic stays and we have Dybala Higuain Mandzukic Pjaca Immobile which makes sense or we have to find a cheap alternative to Mandzukic which will be very hard to find

Besides the key part of people disliking Immobile (tho it kinda started in irrational way, not worth the fuss IMo, who cares he is Napolitan homeboy?), me included in part (cuz he failed in past seasons, mainly for Azzurri), and liking Zaza which I do simply because of his diehard attitude alone, its unfair to Immobile to put him down especially compared to Zaza level players. Its done so either out of dislike or because we expect different things from them. Zaza willingly joined as 4th striker, Immobile is kind of player, even if failed in past seasons, who would have join bigger clubs solely to start or get bit more guranteed minutes. He has been in Dortmund and Sevilla and possibly turned us down if we offered him Zaza like role in the past because he is likely to want to be the go-to-guy for an attack (we wisely chose to invest in Morata instead).
Him having humbling experience since he was top scorer may change that priority now. But its key factor that he was league top scorer even in smaller level, just few years ago, and in the past Serie B top scorer. So in certain level and conditions (defenitely more of counter attack striker, in tune then) he has done damage. And shouldnt be player to look down on at all for Zaza role, it remains to be seen if he can be focused and motivated for bench role (Zaza is very limited player, but he is hungry little warrior and that counts for alot off the bench), but if Immobile is I expect him to be useful. He has shown capability to do damage as a scorer and I rate slightly higher then Zaza prolific wise and technically.
So in short pointless summary, sentamentality aside, besides being super direct gunho animal, I dont see why anyone here should rate Zaza over Immobile, especially for 4th striker option. Immobile has the added bonus of being homegrown quota, which is most likely main reason we would even look at him. Should capable enough in such a role, and makes perfect financial sense to buy him for cheap and sell Zaza for 25-30m.

@Osman can i have your opinion on the following ?
When taking a team of decent to good players, and adding 1 excellent player we could say his price is what he should be worth it. And because you have the choise of all 11 positions to upgrade, there is absolutely 0 reason to overpay, cause you should look for a deal of the right price. Kinda what Marotta has been doing for quite a while.
But when you have a team of 10 excellent players and one good player in a crucial position, it becomes extremely difficult to upgrade that last, final bit. Because its so difficult, actually finding that last wc player would be a rare possible boost for the team. a boost that would warrant overpaying.
For this season, i'm not bothered that we'd be overpaying 30-40 million for Higuain, cause we cannot get him on logical terms, but he literally is replacing the last player in the starting 11 that isnt absolute top or world class, adding even more importance considering he's a major goalscorer, which is about the last thing we lack .(got organisation, defence, grinta, stamina, technique, brilliance, passing, crossing, shooting, kinda lack a natural big scorer)
So thats why i'd say, yeah 94 million for higuain when just looking at higuain is batshit insane. But considering Juve's team, we shouldnt give a shit about the price tag

Since we're willing to put down 94mil, we should inquire about Muller. 
@DAiDEViL can u imagine that partnership Dybala-Muller
Btw yesterday I met my friend's cousin, they're German. His cousin and he, their mothers are twins. His cousin is a she and looked a lot like Muller.
