We should close this thread. This guy it too good and too young for us. We should continue fielding the bonehead in defense for his amazing long/diagonal passes, notwithstanding the fact that he's a pathetic defender.

one thing is for sure that even if we get him, he will ride on the bench. ligt's arrival could see either bonucci or rugani leave Juventus. we don't stand a chance.his playing style is suited for Barcelona since Ajax play the same style as Barcelona.

He's too good to ride the bench. Should be an automatic starter next to Chiellini. That bit was already clear after watching first leg. Bonucci would be sold.

He'd improve more at Juve, that'd be the smarter decision for him, but it's best to forget about him now unless there's a drastic change of events.

No team would be interested in buying Bonucci.

Lol at or Rugani.

Yeah, keep 32 yo error prone Mr 50-50 and pay him 6m or whatever high salary we're paying him for bench (and as if he himself would be ok with it esp given his past) instead of 24/25 yo club homegrown Rugani.

Good point.

But I also don't see Bonucci accepting bench and trying to find a way out, trying being the operative word.

In any case, unlikely we'll sign both a quality CB and a quality CM. We never complete the team.

Likely it'll be another Benatia for defense (enter Manolas) and we may finally sign a semi decent mid.
