Im pretty sure Mandzu will leave. Its the same situation that he had at Bayern when Lewy was signed. He is not a bench player and wont accept this role. I would be okay with him leaving and Zaza staying + Gabigol coming. Our attack would be complete then 2xSS/winger and 2xCF.

From amazing signings so far to Witsel. I really hope this is just media BS.

 

[Cheesio]

Kovacic and Herrera would be great.

 

[ZoSo]

I hope Mandzu stays, that's the kind of quality you need on the bench

 

[LiquidPLP]

Kovacic and Herrera would be great.

The best we could possibly pull off right now

Fuck Witsel

 

[Orgut]

Mario Mandzukic is considering his future at Juventus following Gonzalo Higuain's arrival, and former club Wolfsburg are keen on bringing him back to Germany.

90M and he is theirs

Witsel is coming for sure if his price tag is 20m plus bonuses. That deal has Beppe written all over it. And in addition to that, i hope we can still get Herrera, but it will probably be Kovacic on loan.

What a waste of money

We HAVE to bring in at least one super midfielder. Doesnt have to be a well established name. We have to make a shrewd midfield signing as with Vidal in 2011. Witsel doesnt cut it. Im one of the more optimistic members here, but even I understand that we can just forget about CL if we just bring in Witsel for the midfield. Winning it, that is. I believe we could still go pretty far, though.

Really hoping for that Herrera guy. If we wanna opt for a more well established name, then Rakitic would be a dream come true. But cant see why Barca would sell him to us.

Anyway. Here's hoping Beppe & Paratici are already on top of things, and will positively surprise us with perfect midfield signings.

 

[Roman]

Exactly lets trust them and hopefully we won't be dissappointed.

Witsel's contract is expiring in 2018, so I no reason to waste money on him now (or ever for that matter). He isn't the kind of signing that makes any fucking difference at all. Even if he is coming in as a replacement for someone like Lemina or Pereyra, I see that as a downgrade.

 

[Dostoevsky]

Witsel and Matuidi

Matuidi is a lot better imo.

Signing Witsel makes no sense after all these transfers we get... Witsel? It doesn't seem possible.

Kovacic and Herrera would be great.

Yep.

Although we need a player like Herrera a lot more. Kovacic on loan if Pereyra leaves would be great.

Timothy Fosu-Mensah - I heard Mourinho doesnt want him and he is being touted as the next big thing (United fans already tweeted no worry United could sign him two years later for 100M GBP) - Anyone heard of him? Is he worth taking him and investing in him?

No point buying for the sake of it. Lets remain as are, and go to market when a player convinces us. Herrera needs to be the first guy we buy for that midfield post Pogbas exit. Witsel will just be underwhelming and depressing. Don't know why Beppe can't just land a perfect 10 mercato when he comes so close. Did the same thing last year and ended with Hernanes.

Tall and strong. Physical beast like Pogba. Perhaps we should include him in the Pogba deal

Very basic overview

Arrivals (current): 160m
Sales (current): 37m

Expected sales: Pogba 110m, Zaza 25m, Pereyra 15m, Lemina (?) 20m, Hernanes 5m

Sales (Future): 212m

If all of those sales are made, another 100m (20m Gabigol + up to 80m for 2 CMs) could be spent if you take into account the usual net spend of about 50m

Squad:
GK (3): Buffon, Neto, Audero (Yth)
FB (4): Alves, Sandro, Licht, Evra
CB (6): Chiellini, Bonucci, Barzagli, Benatia, Rugani, Marrone (Yth)
CM (7): Marchisio (Yth), Pjanic, Khedira, Sturaro, Asamoah, ??, ??
FW (5): Dybala, Higuain, Mandzukic, Pjaca, Gabigol (U21)

24 players + 1 U21 - should be fine according to the rules

 

[baggio]

We could be looking at the potential exit of Mandzukic, if recent rumours are to be believed, thats another 20m incoming if it happens, I'd put that into Cuadrado and hold on to Zaza.

 

[Bianconero81]

Zaza wants to stay in Italy, and Italian fuckwit teams can probably only afford him on loan. FML!

Matuidi is a lot better imo.

Trust me, Matuidi is shit too, his ball skills are horrible.
