So 40 mil for Zaza and Pererya, and another 20 mil coming in for Coman, and our two top names are Brozovic and Matuidi?

There are no world class midfielders available for 60 million?


Can't wait for Sturaro to play every game in January when Asa and Lemina are in Africa and Khedira is out injured with a thigh strain....
The good thing is there is a January window...

What would you guys think if the following happens from here:

OUT: Zaza, Pereyra, Hernanes
IN: Matuidi, Cuadrado (loan)

FYI guys, getting Cuadrado effectively negates getting Gabigol as Cuadrado is non-EU and I think we cannot get 2. This is the reason why Milan pulled out of the race as well as they filled their non-EU quota.
Cuadrado is definitely non-EU?

He has played in Europe for some time.

I think Allegri could use Cuadrado in much the same way Ancellotti used Di Maria at Real. In many ways, it adds an effective dimension moving forward, and then maybe even double up to complement someone like Pjaca in a wing based system like the 433, which will also optimise Higuain's movement. Definitely for this move, and on loan, it just means we are deferring the payment, pretty sure, this move will be finalised over the course of next season. Cuads is a great player to have on the team. I don't see the overkill at all.

Ideally at this point we add:
1) Cuadrado - I hope this doesn't count as the two Allegri was referencing and more as a keeping a player.
2) A TQ: James, Eriksen, ???
3) A DM: Biglia, ???

You then sell Hernanes & Zaza along with Pereyra. Hernanes for me should only get sold if we add 2 MF along with Cuadrado.

Definitely. He is a gamebreaker who won us games here, and more importantly, clearly wants to play here.

Fuck's sake. Could you imagine. This would be the most insane mercato in history.

Piguain, Pjanic, Alves, Benatia, Pjaca, Cuadrado, James, Diawara.

:tuttosport:

There's just no fucking way. It's impossible. That's like a 250M mercato.

Cuadrado did play 7 seasons in Serie A I`m pretty sure he is not considered as a non EU

Cuadrado, James, Diawara, Gabigol

Would you like a Messi with your order?! :D

Imagine a 442 with Cuadrado:

---------------------Buffon---------------------

Alves-------Bonucci------Chiellini-------Evra

Cuadrado---Marchisio----Pjanic----Asa/Sandro

---------------Dybala----Higuain--------------

Just a thought.
Rather drop Evra put Sandro instead and play 4-3-3 with Khedira in the CM position

I would be very happy with Biglia. He's much better than he is given credit for.
But Lazio want €40M.

Case closed.

I would change that line-up a bit.

Buffon
Licht-Bonucci-Chiellini-Sandro
Cuadrado-Marchisio-Pjanic-Asamoah
Dybala-Higuain​

This lineup could be easily interchangeable to 3-5-2 if required.

Here's an idea dear Guiseppe, don't sell 2 stars midfielders two years in a row without having a plan on how to replace them..and no Khedira and Pjanic are not direct nor adequate replacements for Vidal and Pogba
Bravo. Well said!!!!

When I say our midfield has taken a substantial nose dive in quality since that CL final vs barca ppl think I'm nuts. Glad someone is on my wave length.

We are not a better team than last year because we spent $90m on Higuain. Addition by substraction doesn't work in this case

Here's an idea dear @Karim30 , let's judge the mercato when it's done. And even then is too early. The end of the season is the actual time to reflect.
