There was a technical CFO on board/admin level for commercial purposes, but to intent and purposes, Marotta handled the financial side of the clubs operations sporting wise. When he left it was clearly stated that his tasks would be delegated differently afterwards, because his expertise wasnt just running things in basic football decisions, but was financial exec/GM of general operations, the negotiator, in charge of numbers etc, had full authority basically.
This is why we seen Andrea Agnelli be more involved then before in dealings after Marotta (and why he is taking meetings with other clubs GMs/ presidents etc, things Marotta would handled before), and why the job of CFO might slighly be more prominent then before. Paratici doesnt get that same full authority, less experienced/different type of skillset, tho he is in charge of sporting decisions/is a football man mainly with scouting background. The delegation of tasks and hierarchy is bit different (since their experience/qualifcations are different), but the job is still being done, so its fine. Paratici is probably getting a 2nd guy under him in Cherubini, so Andrea can be more relaxed in his role.

We invested a lot in youth and U-23 also, but I'm bit disappointed we haven't been able to produce some good players from our youth system in the past 10 years.
Even in 2020 we sometimes have only 18-19 players available for a match, when we should have 3-4 more (18-20 years home-grown top talents).
We did sell some of those players though for plusvalenza, but after 10 years since this guy is in the club we should be able to produce a lot more.

I think we are quite confident in using players such as Frabotta (you could argue he is a first team player now) and 6-8 other U23 players as essentially players 20-25 in the first team squad. In other clubs this would be perfectly normal. You see the Spanish clubs do it where they have about 18-20 established players, and then each season a handful of young players flit between the B team and first team, with some staying in the first team as time goes on.
We've lacked confidence in our young players to do this, they can't prove themselves without a chance. This is why the U23 team was important to bridge that gap in development. Primavera to first team doesn't work well for a massive club like Juve because the player would have to be truly exceptional, and once a very good but not exceptional player becomes too old for the Primavera they have to go out on loan (formerly co-ownership as well) to play games and develop. Even with Marchisio and Giovinco this happened. With the U23 at least we can see if there is some first team potential there, giving them opportunities to train with top class players and learn tactics and the mentality of the first team.
The other side of this is developing young players throughout the entire youth system. How fantastic would it be for us to see some 17-18 year old like Fati, Puig, Pedri etc come through with some minutes for the first team?
I think our youth system production for the first team has to and will get stronger as time goes on. Ok, Serie C to a Serie A lead team is a big leap, but playing pro football in a club environment is a great first step. If they have to go on loan to another Serie A side then so be it.

I think that discussing everything before the existence of the U23 is a waste of time, as we probably all agree that we failed with producing home grown players. Even the board agrees otherwise we didn’t created the U23 team.
I think that there are some things to get excited about. It’s created 3 years ago, we won the Coppa in the second year, and this year Frabotta joined the senior squad. It’s obviously a long term project so we need to have patience.
Still believe that we should play in Serie B asap. And we seem very actively with scouting and signing young talents.
