CB
Bonucci, Ogbonna, Barzagli, Chiellini, Caceres + bonus Marrone - 5 1/2 central defenders, more than enough
AM
we don't need AM because we don't use the formation with trequarista, even if we are going to play 4312 we have Pogba, Giovinco, Pereyra and even Vidal who could be used under forwards
We need to sell Bonucci, and replace him. Marrone is not a Juve quality CB. If he plays matches here as a CB outside the Coppa, we can truly kiss our campaign goodbye. Barzagli is currently injured and is aging. We need a young talented CB to replace him. Ogbonna, I still believe he can improve. Cacares is a good and versatile sub at best.

Having a good AM would give us the potential to play formations that require one. Especially an AM that can also play on the wing in Wing based formations.

We need young talented CB to bench him, right? Cause obviously Chiellini - Barzagli is our first choice for 4 man defence and the next in line are Bonucci and Ogbonna with Caceres, so you want us to spend another 15m on young central defender just to bench him? :lol: fortunately you are not CEO of Juventus

I still think a 6.5/7-10 is realistic. Marotta needs to be given credit for not selling any of our key players when half of Europe was knocking at the door. You know the pressure to satisfy and convince certain key players fell onto his plate as well. Strengthening our bench was nice and will be important, especially if Max Points (@Dru) gets us out of the Groups/Knockouts.

8/10 for me. 10/10 if we resign Pogba on a learn term contract.

- We kept Vidal
- We Kept Pogba
- Signed a new LB
- Signed 2 new adaptable CMs
- Sign a gem named Coman

Overall, I'm very happy.

It was very entertaining that we actually TRIED to go for Falcao. That was funny ass shit.

Can't wait until we reach 350M euro revenue next year.

Marotta gets an extra point if he renews with Pogba until 2019 without a clause next week. That would be massive & certainly affected our activities and our budget for the market since Pogba will earn 3 or 4 times as much as before.

I'm pretty sure I said we need to sell Bonucci first. Barzagli is injured currently and has been dealing with minor injuries for the last year, off and on. He's got a year or two left at the top. I'd prefer we bring in a young replacement to groom for his position now, one that becomes first choice off the bench, or the third member of a back 3 alongside Ogbonna if he can start to improve and cut down on his mistakes.

As Juve I don't take us 'keeping our best players' in to account when rating the Summer. It should be mandatory at a club of this size & stature

I'd say 6/10. Of course looking back in a few months if some of our loan deals do exceptionally well or Coman explodes it could be a 7.

Once again we haven't got ourselves a star signing to push us to the next level. But optimistically this should be possible with the new Adidas deal among other things in 1 years time.

Romulo - I am a fan of this purchase. Better than Padoin and Isla, very cheap loan fee with a cheap option to buy

Pereyra - He could be a good purchase. He'll have to do pretty well to justify the price tag if we take it up, imo he will be a key squad player this season. I feel much more secure with Marchisio/Pirlo AND Pereyra on stand-by as opposed to last year where we had to pray we were injury free in midfield.

Morata - Clearly has potential, it's a hefty fee and Madrid are almost certainly not going to want him back whilst their clause is in tact. So we should be safe there. Far too early to judge this signing as it's potentially a very long term one. We need to see him in action tbh.

Coman - Long story short, great pick up by the looks of it. Hope he gets ample time.
