Looks like our Mercato is over.

7/10. Not bad. Not great. Best part about our mercato, we kept both Vidal & Pogba without selling any of our key players. I'm sure the know-it-alls here probably can't comprehend how hard that might be when clubs are willing to offer up mega money for certain players and we still managed to keep them here at least for another season (when we obviously can't compete financially). Evra will bring his class for at least 2 seasons, this will help us (and hopefully let Chiellini get back to his ol' CB self).

We are already excited about Coman and his potential. Pereyra (can never spell his name) is also someone I look forward to seeing, he might surprise everyone. We also sold some deadweight.

Lastly, Morata will be good. It isn't very often that Madrid inserts a clause to get that player back, or is it? I haven't seen Madrid do that before that I can recall so there must be some talent there if Madrid wants the ability to get the player back.

Forza Marotta. Mercato genius extraordinaire. :beppe:

Turn it up with your technicalities. A Bosman is a bargain in my book if the player is worth the wages.
thats no technicality, simply going by your words, unless you expect us to read your thoughts. You said initially 'good bargainS', then it turned out to be one, where did the bargaining occur exactly in the coman deal?

i'm just glad we didn't sign Falcao i mean if we had a chance :D he was way too expensive and he's old to be trowing that kind of money for him. We missed on a lot of good transfers this summer but i see we have some potential great players for free the only bad thing is the morata transfer cuz of that clause but we'll see what will happen. I know they are saving money and for the kind of money we spend i'm pleased overall with the mercato. And thank god we didn't sign cicharito :D

I have a feeling somebody will arrive today. Marotta talked a few days back that we needed a defender and a striker and so far we've gotten nothing. Also we haven't heard anything from him today. Usually he comes out and tells us if the mercato has ended or not.

Wonder what surprise Beppe got for us? Nastasic? Soldado?

we're only going to sign a defender if one leaves, which won't happen. And we're not going to sign another striker now because of Coman
