It's not the isolated signings. It's the big picture that's the problem. You can always argue that every single signing made sense in it's own context. But at the end (so far) of it all we haven't improved our starting lineup, we lost our Coach and our team depends on players who are 30+. Rejuvenation.. on it's way? Nope.

36 (37)

30 (31) - 33 (34) - 27 (28) - 30 - 33 (34)

21 (22) - 35 (36) - 27 (28)

30 (31) - 29 (30)

(The players age at the end of the season)

Yeah, that's not a Juve that will have problems within the next year or two.

Apart from Evra and Coman, not one move this summer made sense anyway.
Morata with 2 strikers in their 30's certainly did. The buyback is just for Real to safe face. They'll just buy another 90m+ guy when Benzema leaves.

Exactly... Old squad and that's why we invested in Sturaro, Morata, Coman, Pereyra. Clear for everyone to see. This Manolas guy (or Nastasic forthat matter) would fit the same logic.

So what you're saying is that all of them will be one year older at the end of the season? Damn.
Nope. Chiellini won't.

And no that's not what I'm saying and you know that, dumbass :D

I see a weaker squad with the current strategy and signings in the coming years.

Then what are you tryin tosay because except for Evra we bought youngsters and still you're saying it didn't make sense...

Leali, Caceres, Marrone, Manolas ;), Rugani, Asamoah, Marchisio, Pereyra, Pogba, Sturaro, Vidal, Morata, Coman, Berardi, Gabbiadini... No rejuvenation ?

The budget will be significanty bigger next year and beyond. Around 50m extra between adidas, fiat extension & continasssa.
