Cronios, DP84, Zacheryah and Turk are all pretty much the same

I was being adventurous this morning. I didn't want to mention the same names, but you're forgetting someone special.

Italian papers are now saying we are after Ozil

Another four weeks of this

Is Arsenal going to accept 15m + 5 in bonuses? Beppe is great at bargains but I think every single higher profile target he looks at won't come. He's shit at that.

35 mil for dybala, 18 mil for Zaza, 18 mil for Matri, 15 mil for Ogbonna

I wouldn't call him great at bargains but I give him credit on the free transfers that he made (Pogba, Pirlo...)

The only bargain deals that IMO were great moves from him are Vidal and Tevez (who we managed to sign for a great fees) others not so much.

Licht too.

True, forgot about him.

 

[JuveID]

Not to forget Paraticci who we own some perfect transfers and all the glory goes to Marotta.

so true.

Same story in this thread every single JUne/July/August

Except in previous summers we didn't sell/undersell a Vidal level player. So the onus is really ArturON them.

 

[Post Ironic]

We sold Matri once... and we all know Matri > Vidal

 

[baggio]

It's more like the Diego sale in many ways, even though they're two different quality of players, that was perhaps the closest we've come to a 'big' sale before Vidal.

Hold your horses, let's offer a loan with an option first.

Losing 10m on Diego back then is still a better sale than selling Vidal for 35m

Draxler isn't worth more than €15m.

But if we sign him for more than that, he sure has hell will be

It'll be a good first bid.

Trying too hard Beppe_Aus.

Not to forget Paraticci who we own some perfect transfers and all the glory goes to Marotta.

We have no idea whose work or initiative is behind any transfer and really have no idea of finding out either. Paratici might be responsible for Pogba & Vidal just as much as he might be for Martinez & Ogbonna.

Ergo, it mostly makes sense for us to treat the scouting/sporting department as a singular entity when assessing their work, and as Marotta is the head of that, he's getting all the praise as well as the blame.

 

[Post Ironic]

We also have no idea what kind of funds Marotta has been authorized to spend in the remainder of the mercato. People keep saying Marotta can't close on big targets like Aguero, Van Persie, Sanchez, etc... but each and every time we were priced out on those players, we couldn't spend 30+ mil on players at that point in time. It had nothing to do with Marotta being able to close on top players, it had more to do with our club being unable to spend sufficient funds on top players.

Marotta has done a fantastic job with limited resources. He's made his share of mistakes, but building a team that has now won 4 straight scudetti, a first coppa italia in 20 years, and played in a CL final for the first time in 12 years... well, he at least deserves a little respect and patience to see at the very least how we begin the season, before people flip out about how he performed this mercato. We lost 3 top players and brought in 3 high profile players, plus Zaza. Only time will tell how these players turn out and how Juventus shall do this season.

35m for Vidal

How you dare to laugh? He was not 28 but 35 years old and a injury prone only due to one ordinary meniscus surgery.

Exor had a good year and FFP is lowered so Beppe might go and storm a few castles later in the transfer market if there is an opportunity.
