Juventus fans this summer come in two majorities, and one minority:
Majorities:
1.) Marotta is a clown and has no f*cking clue what he is doing. His transfers are ridiculous from acquiring poor calibre players such as Padoin and Peluso, to over-paying for average players like Roberto Pereyra. He will never be able to attract top calibre players, and is very limited in his bargaining and scouting capabilities and will eventually lead this club to another 7th place finish. His incompetence was mainly highlighted this year when he could not properly replace Andrea Pirlo with an injury prone Khedira, and let's not even start talking about who Vidal's successor will be. The proof is in the pudding- Antonio Conte, a natural born winner left the club because of his commitment to signing mediocre players.
2.) Marotta is a God. He fixed the club with useful players like Boriello, when he was needed, signed Mirko Vucinic while he was still in his prime, acquired Carlos Tevez to elevate Juventus to the next level for serious CL competitiveness, scouted and acquired Vidal who turned out to be one of the world's best DMC's. He got Pirlo on a free transfer, who against all expectations experienced the form of his life, even taking his game to the next level for the Italian NT. Marotta should be credited for master-minding Juve's successful come-back era from dominating Italian football to 2014/2015's double-winning + CL final season! Yes he may have his faults, but has taken Juventus to a higher level in both Italy and Europe. Trust his judgment to continue in this path.
Minority fans:
3.) Marotta is neither a God nor a failure. He has his pro's and con's. He's signed flops and superstars. 2014/2015 summer is a transition period, and Juventus were unfortunate to experience key injuries to players in the summer. His mercato wasn't that bad, and managed to replace Pirlo with a creative midfielder in Hernanes considering Khedira will not likely feature as much we expected. Allegri took a gamble with Padoin(!!) as regista which clearly failed. He acquired Dybala, one of World football's most exciting prospects in attack, clearly in a World where there is scarcity in top-class forwards (Man United's overpaying for Martial suggests a scream of desperation, anyone???? ). The only failure Marotta did was failing to replace Arturo Vidal. The jury is out there on Lemina, and time will tell whether or not Hernanes will rekindle his Lazio form. All in all, injuries or not, this is a completely new-look Juventus almost starting from scratch. It will take a while for the side to gel, but they'll get their act together. Be patient.
That is all. Discuss.
