De Sciglio was his personal request. IMO, to claim that Allegri has absolutely no say in transfers is just as foolish as claiming that he has complete control of transfers.
I find it hard to believe that we wouldn’t be targeting different kind of players if Guardiola was our manager. It’s a well known fact that Allegri likes tall physical midfielders, while Guardiola values technique a lot more.
If Guardiola had been our manager in the last few years, we would definitely have more technical midfielders in our squad and less physical ones. Our midfield would probably have players like Lo Celso, Torreira, Fornals, Fabian Ruiz, etc... all these players were available for a reasonable fee.
