If Lichtsteiner leaves and we keep Cuadrado we would probably see 352 almost exclusively. Unless we got another fullback.
Barzagli/Benatia Bonucci/Rugani Chiellini/Evra
Alves/Cuads AS/De Sciglio

or

Alves/De Sciglio AS/Evra

In the 43something

We definitely don't need to be spending money on Cuad unless we sell Licht.
Challenge accepted

Barzagli/Licht Bonucci/Benatia Chiellini/Rugani

Alves/Cuads AS/Evra

I watched him 10 times atleast, all 6 games at the EURO and some games towards the end of the season for Leicester, and I can tell that he isnt good enough to be a starter here. If you think otherwise you either haven't watched him or are clueless
Do everyone a favour and stop pretending you've watched the guy play. Here you claim that you've seen him 6 times at the Euros even though he's only started 3 games so I very much doubt you watched much of him at Leicester. He was immense last season and would be a great signing for us.

A starter too?

With Marchisio out injured yes he would be a starter. Could potentially bench Khedira as well.

Also I just read the previous page and saw your thoughts on Matic. That only confirmed what I already thought based on your opinion on Kante. You didn't watch much Premier League last season did you? Matic was terrible. He even got benched for Obi fucking Mikel at one point. Don't get me wrong, I rate Matic highly and would definitely like him at Juve but I find it confusing for you to say he's the best DM in the EPL and completely discredit Kante when Matic had a horrible season and Kante was by far the best DM in that league.

I can't believe Marotta offered 30m + bonuses for Sanchez. Haha. If Wolfsburg is willing to offer close to 30m for Zaza, then surely Sanchez is worth over 40m.

40m for Sanchez would be a good deal for us.

No way he would start ahead of Khedira, Pogba, Pjanic, even with Marchisio out. My thoughts on Matic have nothing to do with his games last season (i didnt watch a single game of that atrocious league apart from a few Leicester games towards the end of the season), but my overall impression on him. More skilled player, can dribble himself out of trouble, great passer. Hes more the type of player we need than Kante and would fit in better definitely. Also, Kante played as a CM in a 2 man midfield for Leicester as far as I know. The one time he was a DM behind 2 CMs in a top team (France this EURO), he wasn't very good and didnt impress me at all. As the 5th CM hes OK but not regular starter level at Juve

He knows wenger hands are tied. :beppe:
Wenger still has nightmares from that 7M offer for RVP. He thanks God every day that United came in so he didn't have to accept Beppes offer

Imagine for a second that we got around 30m for Zaza! Zaza and Morata bring in 60m between them. Then we spend 80m on Sanchez and Cavani! and play a 433 with Dybala-Cavani-Sanchez with Pjanic-Marchisio-Pogba behind them.

I know I am dreaming - but what a thought.

The dream comes crashing to a halt when you start thinking about the additional wages though.

Who would be the deep lying mid out of Khedira, Pogba and Pjanic? Khedira? No thanks.

At least you admitted that you've barely seen Kante play. If you knew his skill set you would know that he would be a good signing. It's not a coincidence that Chelsea and Real Madrid are showing interest. I would be completely happy with Matic and maybe he would be a better fit I just don't understand why you're so against Kante even though you clearly have limited knowledge on the player.

Pjanic obviously. He will do great on that role

What I saw was enough really. Limited player that excells in a league where you run up and down the pitch all game. Chelsea and Real make transfer mistakes all the time, i wouldn't use them as an argument if I were you. Also, im not against him. Id welcome him as our 5th CM for a good price. All im doing is arguing with people that think he would be a starter here and that hes some kind of Messiah for us. If you think he would be a good signing for the bench, as 5th CM then yes, we can agree. But not as a starter ahead of 4 better players. The other thing I was arguing is that Lemina is potentially a better player in a few years which some people see as blasphemy it seems
