“Progressing very well,” was his (Darmian's agent) reply.


He then commented to Sportitalia reporters after the cameras had been switched off: “We’re at an advanced stage with Juventus.”

squad building time again:

Szczesny, Perin, Pinsoglio
Benatia, Chiellini, Barzagli, Caldara, Rugani
Alex Sandro, De Sciglio, Spinazzola, Cancelo
Pjanic, Matuidi, Khedira, Can, Bentancur, Sturaro, Marchisio
Ronaldo, Mandzukic, Dybala, Bernardeschi, Cuadrado, Costa

25 players without Higuain. Pinsoglio, Rugani, Spinazzola, Marchisio, club trained for Serie A. Pinsoglio, Marchisio, club trained for CL. meaning we need to cut 2 players from the CL list. enough association trained players for both Serie A and CL. Bentancur as U21 for Serie A, and i think hes not for CL.

lets say Rugani leaves. we lose a HG player for Serie A and just a regular player for CL. so whoever we replace him with, we dont need to cut additional players from the CL list. Bentancur doesent count towards the 25 players limit in Serie A since hes U21, so we can replace Rugani with a player that doesent have to be HG in any form or shape and get away with it.

so yeah, if we sell Rugani (and Alex Sandro stays), we can sign one additional player, and if that one player is Darmian, well, get your negative personas out everyone, its time to start hating on the mercato again! for every next player we sign after that, we need to sell someone.

since im in a good mood, im gonna give some decent arguments as to why Darmian is needed
-Ruganis sale reduces our defense to 4 CBs and 4 fullbacks. one fullback is injured for who knows how long. Darmian fills the 5th CB in a 352 and 5th FB/WB
-he should be fairly cheap at this point
-he used to be a good player in Serie A and a Italy international

now im in a bad mood again, since we are linked with freakin Darmian, so here is why this move sucks
-Cuadrado and Barzagli can play RB and De Sciglio can play LB, so we are covered even without Spinazzola. Can can play CB in a 352/343 as well if needed
-we are wasting a squad spot on a jabroni
-he sucks and is not even a real italian

so fuck off with this!

Can Darmian play CB as well? Since there are reports out now that Sandro does not want to leave, this is the only logic that I can attach to this

ive seen Van Gaal field him as a CB in a 4 man backline, but hes nuts. dont remember if Mourinho ever did it

Conte played him as a CB for Italy, but in a 3 man backline
