For me it seems that the management gives him a certain amount of money..and he's totally free to spend them the way he likes..no constraints..no any other factors..just what he sees..does it really work in this way?
I believe this as well. Complete trust in this jackass has been this club's downfall.

Regardless of who he gets this summer he better not leave important transfers to the last minute again. Let the team train together at least before they start playing together.

After the game yesterday:

“Last summer we were in a downward spiral and we had two choices: renew the team by looking for a couple of Champions samples to insert into a deeply flawed group or be revolutionary. There could not be a mix of the two, it would cost an unsustainable figure. We preferred the second option because I feared that with the first we would finish worse than when we started and despite the disappointment of ending once more in seventh place, we are not repentant. This year we start with a base ready to progress.”
“We were able to move fast, with a greater choice this year. We need motivation and motivators in the squad. Delneri achieved 80% of what was asked of him and it was not easy. Now we need to introduce a new mentality, we were among the teams with the lowest number of defeats but we paid a high price for too many ties, we have thrown away games that were already won. We must again be referred to as the Juve Franco Causio told me about, which once 1-0 up gave no hope to anyone.”

It's obvious what he tried to do but it didn't work because the players and coach he chose were just too low a grade. A couple more doing better and a clear injury list and it might have been enough to squeeze 4th in a pretty poor league but the overall picture of the season is that too many areas were wrong. Must do better. Is he really going to add champions to his one year of second options?

What scares me is that he wants to build upon what he made last summer...i.e. Motta, Pepe, Martinez...:sergio:

Juve have appeal, insists Marotta


Director general Beppe Marotta insists that Juventus will be able to attract top class players this summer.

The Old Lady did struggle to sign new faces a year ago when Antonio Di Natale, Nicolas Burdisso and Marco Borriello all rejected a switch to Turin.

To make matters even more complicated, Juve have no European football to offer targets this summer after finishing seventh in Serie A.

“Juventus will conserve their appeal, despite the lack of European football,” Marotta responded. “All the great champions that we have spoken to are ready to come here.

“Obviously the talks will be difficult because clubs are asking for mad amounts of money, but the players are at our disposal.

“Last year we had to move within smaller margins. It is different this time around. We can move quite early and we can sign a few players for free.”

Juve have already swooped for Andrea Pirlo from Milan on a Bosman and are close to doing the same for Sampdoria’s Reto Ziegler.

Marotta had a busy time 12 months ago radically changing the playing staff, but he insists there won’t be so many moves this time around.

“We had two roads in front of us last year – one was revolution and the other was to spend all of our budget on just two stars,” he added.

“There is no proof of how we would have done had we chosen the other path. Anyway, I’m convinced that what we did was right.

“The problem was the environment here, it was depressed, and we opted for big changes.

“What mattered though was to lay the foundations for the future and I think that six or seven of the players we signed can go on to form the base to which to add a few champions.”
