Italian defenders do improve greatly with age on average.
Is he strong enough to partner Rugani ?

Hmm sadly we are too late for their keeper. Not sure about the rest of the team.
De sciglio on the cheap, the goalkeeper kid and this defender seems to be all that could interest us

Grinta doesnt equal fighting bro
If you asked me at the start of the season, i'd say "yeah, absolutely".
But what i've seen, is his time at club brugge, and the highlights of sevilla. Where he was quite the player.
Havent seen him at milan. He was too deep in our defences pocket to notice, and Milan doesnt play in europe so that was pretty much it.
But from what i've read, Milan fans were critical
So i dont know. he's a latebloomer.
But, the point of my post was, we got Dybala, Morata, Mandzukic, Zaza.
Dybala and Morata are obviously more talented. Mandzukic is about as old, and better suited to us. Zaza is a great 4th striker to have. He'd be 4th choise, and he wouldnt come off the bench with Zaza's intensity.

I feel like this is a realistic mercato. Is this enough tho? It's hard to follow the new regulations.

Bild am Sonntag will report today, that Gündogan has signed a 5 year contract for City. Dont know the details yet, but it was rumoured, that he demanded around 14m€ gross and Pep happy to fulfill his wish. Wanted to have him at Bayern, but his demands pushed them off last summer and I believe Röckenhaus, that Bayern havent been interested since.
Laporte, Gündogan..Pep buying the players I want most at my club.

It doesnt make sense to me to talk about him or to fight for him, as he decided to leave and I feel a bit betrayed and ll act like an immature stubborn kid and wishing him the worst for his next club, but I also know that its going downwards from the moment Pep leaves, as he is the best coach I could imagine managing my club..he is simple a genius.
There r understandable reasons for him to leave though, as its really not easy with Rummenigge & Co. to work with, especially when its about transfers and spending money. He needed to make too many compromises and the big problem has been the huge amount of injuries to key players..look at them this season with all 4 CBs mostly out. If he wins us the triple, then his time here was exceptional great. Without winning CL it would be somehow unfinished business and he wouldnt be remembered in the same way as Lattek, Hitzfeld or Heynckes.
