I don't consider Bonucci and Marchisio our best players, so I'm not really sure what that means. I guess if you want to query the forum for positive hits then yes Marchisio is the best player in the world.
The past season, Bonucci and Marchisio, after Tevez were the 3 best performing players over the course of the season

Pogba was outstanding for 2 months before his injury, and average before newyear
Vidal was average in everything, but got back to his excellent defensive game at the end of the season
Pirlo was a huge defensive risk and very poor offensively, but managed clutch freekicks several times
Morata grew into the season, while Llorente never started it

While i agree and am still mad about him leaving (i wonder if i still get infracted for calling him, youknowwhat)

We got dybala. So that somewhat eased it.

vidal on the other hand, we'll see
See Dybala could turn out to be an amazing player, but I have my doubts we'll see the best of him straight away.

Whereas with Vidal, whilst he is (was) our best midfielder, we are pretty damn stacked in that department. And it wouldnt shock me if Marotta signs another CM to up the stocks anyway.

I understand that but he has a couple of years to develop. Chiello was still a left bank at Rugani's age. There aren't any guarantees I agree which is why with the Vidal money we need to bring in a guarantee. Following that, with the eventual Pogba money, we need to bring in another guarantee. I hope it's Verratti.
Depends on what cam we got

IF we sign a worldclass, of very high potential CAM, we dont need verratti as he wont suit the formation. But a winger would.

People need to stop the drama. i have always been an enemy for Marotta and actually most of my -rep is because of him, however, i want to say that he is the one who got us Pirlo and Pogba and Vidal and llorente and Barzagli and Tevez for actually nothing compared to today's market. this is an achievement we shouldn't overlook. however, will always blame him for letting Veratti slip away ( huge mistake ), and now i will wait to see what he will do this year. most of the top teams do stupid shit once in while. be patient guys. losing Vidal is not the end of juve and will never be. and we still buy players.

we all thought it was over after Conte left us and look what happened the season after that. maybe we will buy players who will actually make us stronger and maybe we perform better next years with players like Dybala and Mandzukic and Coman.

just stop the drama goddamit.

Let's hope so. Apart from Verratti.

marchisio and bonucci were our most consistent players imo and fairly put in the top 3 along with tevez
Well, if you want to say most consistent, then sure, that's possible. But that doesn't mean they are our best players. Is Marchisio in 2015 a better player than Del Piero in 2007 just because he had an off year? Not really. Best players mean the most skilled and impactful over several years and neither Bonucci or Marchisio are even close to that.

Oh but i'm very angry and nearly got banned over Tevez leaving a year early, exactly cause Dybala will likely have a Morata 14/15 season

What you are saying, is that neved shouldnt have won the 2003 ballon d'or cause there were far more talented players in football that year. Nedved just happened to play consistantly better then them that year.

Comparing Nedved of 2003 to Bonucci and Marchisio of 2015 is simply asinine. I think you and others are confusing consistency with consistency and class and game-changing ability.

But whether you agree with that or not, it's still obvious the club is entering a new phase.

Both were situations, where a lesser talented player, played better then better talented players.

In 2003 Zidane, Figo, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho?... were more talented then Neved, but nedved played beter
In 2015 Pogba and Chiellini have more talent then Bonucci and Marchisio but the latters played better

Marchsio, tevez, buffon and bonucci are our best player last season.

Do not need to compare him with nedved in 2003 and del piero in 2007.

Juventus is selling vidal, not nedved or del piero.

The hatred blinds the Marotta haters. They make up new ways to slander whatever moves he does.

Marotta knows inner workings of club more than his haters.

But they still think know more and love the club more than him.

This is why we can't have nice things.

Oh, and do you guys remember all the praise Beppe received for buying all the players before the transfer market officially opened? :lol:

It's very important to do this, guyse, so that the team can gel from the start and have a pre-season together.

Then we do this.

I think Marotta is learning an important lesson from Rummenigge and Bayern. They are basically saying to us:

"We want your best midfielder for 35 mil euro, but we won't sell you a rotational player for 50 mil euro."

With no decent purchase as a CAM I hope this deal fails even if we let Vidal go for free after two seasons.
