The loan with obligation isn't a loan, it's a way to spread out payments across additional years to make the books of both clubs look better. It's a player sale, and it's not necessarily that they don't want the player any more it's that they'd rather have the money to invest elsewhere or to balance books, or the player wants to leave or whatever. Just like with any other transfer.
Have you watched him play consistently? I really, really doubt it. I am not saying he's the new Pirlo, but he seems to be very good at finding passes between the lines and we definitely miss this kind of player. Can't you wait until he flops before having your meltdown? Or are you going to bitch and moan to eternity with no good reason?
I starting watching Juve in 94, when you were probably still shitting your diapers. I despise Manchester City because I can't tolerate plastic clubs. However, expecting Juventus to have a plan/a strategy and buy players that complement that strategy is apparently too much to ask for these days.
Given how we have operated over the past 2-3 seasons, and our performances and results, I think bitching and moaning is justified, unless you're happy with 4th place and no titles.

I started watching Juve in 97, so spare me the seniority BS. It's one thing to complain about the overall strategy, but the one we have is clearly being implemented. We are lowering wages of players that are not worthy of receiving such and the new signings are either established players on a small or free transfer with appropriate wages, or talented younger players that you can later sell on and recoup your investment. No more Higuains or Ronaldos.
As for talent on the pitch, are you dumb? We are signing a experienced, proven regista that Allegri clearly needs, we signed a wingback/winger in Kostic that we needed, we replaced Dybala's creativity with Di Maria, signed Pogba and giving confidence to Miretti for added creativity in midfield and swapped De Ligt for Bremer which both got us a big transfer fee, remove his exorbitant salary and allow us to continue investing in the team without a big downgrade in the CB position.
Now ok, maybe you don't like it, but you don't even give a chance to see if the strategy works, you just bitch and moan, every goddamn 10 minutes about everything. Honestly, go and watch Man City or PSG or whatever, you'll be happier and you won't make everyone here miserable with your bitching.

Who are the talented younger players that we have brought in under this management? Vlahovic for 80 million? Locatelli, who only wanted Juventus,where the negotiations almost took our entire summer mercato? Bremer was bought in to replace another, arguably, more talented young player and he wasn't exactly cheap considering his contract situation.
An experienced proven regista on high wages who we'll struggle to dispose of - remind you of anyone else on our current roster?
Di Maria and Cuads are on borrowed time - in 12 months, both are very likely gone. Who do we have for our wings then? Chiesa, Soule (nowhere near ready), Kean (garbage on the wings), and Kostic (who can't beat his man or cut in from the left). Don't even get me started on the LB position and our CB situation, where aside from Bremer, none of the other CBs inspire confidence. Next summer, we'll have more holes to fill and I'm sure we'll resort to more stopgap solutions yet again.
I had all of last season to see the strategy FAIL. I don't think we did anything exceptional in this summer mercato, but don't let me stop you from being retardedly optimistic.
