That release clause is calling to be triggered this summer
none will pay 150m for him , i'm sure he'll leave 100% , but Juve going to get something like 70-80m nothing more for sure.

So we let go of Romero, Demiral and are trying to piss MDL off as well.

But we like Ms Rugani and our 2 old farts.
yeah that's why i was so against selling Demiral this season , this club is retarted sometimes , MDL will leave for sure , but at least we have 500 y old Chiellini and 200 y old Bonucci .

He hasn't had a great season but he should be one of the first names on the team sheet.
Agree with this one. He is young and have a great physical tools. No excuse to rotate him. We need to trust him and find the form. No reason to rotate our CB

Ruben Dias almost played all City games last season although Pep has tendency to rotate the team selection. Van Dijk also played almost all Liverpool matches in their season winning league 2 season ago and the previous season when they won Champions League.

MDL is a generational player. I would even say that the effort put into retaining him should surpass the one put in for Chiesa. Losing him would honestly be nothing short of a catastrophe.

Someone offers ~100m and this guy is gone IMO. We take huge cash, make the infamous plusvalenza and take his heavy contract off the wage bill.

If some premafces club will be in dire need of a Cb, they will offer big money for him and the club won't make too much fuss about it. We're a construction site anyway, top4 looks like a need-a-miracle here challenge.

100M could land us Vlahovic and Tchouameni. It sounds nice, even if Romagnoli as a sub sucks.
What interest would those two mentioned players have joining Juve if we sell De Ligt? What's the difference having holes in midfield or defense?
I'm not sure how yall so sure we are selling him anyway?

Listen here dipshit. This has nothing to do with Dybala.

Is De Ligt currently a 120 million Euro player? No.

Is he going to eventually leave because Raiola is his agent? Absolutely.

If we don't have money to reinforce midfield, what the fuck do you propose we do? Are you happy with Glassmsey, Fagiot, Bentapoor, McNuggets and Arturd as a unit?
You're the dipshit for thinking we could get anywhere near 120M for a CB.

Good luck using that money for reinforcing 4-5 positions and this includes revamping the entire defense.

As usual, 1 step forward 3 steps backwards. The irony here is you were among the ones incessantly complaining in the past about how we keep selling our best players.

Ok then. Tell me how we're going to reinforce the defense, midfield and attack with limited funds? Tootsie fucked us.

How can we bring in both Tchouameni and Vlahovic without making sacrifices?

I obviously want us to retain our best players, but it might be a struggle. Also, dealing with Raiola always means we can only hope to retain a player for 3-4 years before the fat man decides to transfer his client to another club.

De Ligt's release clause is 150 I think, so 120 is a fair compromise.

Who are the best defenders (cb) in your opinion? I wanna hear that. But please, outside of Juve, because you'd probably mention Bonucci.
No, I would not mention Bonucci. (I do think he's been doing pretty good so far, all things considered.)
Can I mention Chiellini though? :p


Considering the fact that, besides the ones I attend in the Belgian league, I really only watch Juve games, I'm probably not in the best position to answer this question. From what I've seen, Koulibaly, De Vrij & Skriniar stand out. Maybe Romero as well, but defensive players in an Atalanta team are always difficult to judge imo.
Outside of Italy, I have even less of a clue.
Disclaimer: Maybe I would have an entirely different idea if I actually watched them play regularly, like I do with De Ligt.


Come to think of it, I did watch Euro 2020. But, other than the Italians, the only CB I remember having an absolutely great tournament is Maguire. Maybe Stones as well. Haven't seen them since. No idea what their average level is.


Cue people laughing at Maguire being mentioned when talking about top CB's.

Excellent game.

The last goal was a mess but looked like it was because of Rugani ball watching and running into him. If Rugani holds his position on the right there would've been no danger.
