In the words of wise Mr. Kimi Raikkonen - fucking finally!

Now I am at peace mostly about next season. Would've loved to get Lovato for that ridiculous price and not have to worry about Rugani being the backup but baby steps I guess.

Welcome Loca, super pumped to see him play asap, and I think he will right away.

Yes TBH I would happily take Pjanic back for a season or so until we can add another top CM next season (hopefully)

Locatelli is a very good start though.
I agree about Locatelli being a good start, what I mostly don't like about the move is the rest of the midfield that he is supposed to play with. He is still young and a critical development age. Finding himself with top players would see his game evolve a lot more forward. He will find himself with Bentancur and Arthur now not to mention the other two gifts we have.

I would have thought that deal is much better if he was to play with Khedira and Matuidi.

Another mediocre Italian DM we signed, the type of player we can find anywhere. We need strong AM like Isco or James Rodriguez, this board is a failure even without Marotta and Paratici...
