Obv some criticism is valid but i dont remember Chiellini or Bonucci nor Barzagli who was such a late bloomer in fact being amazing at 22 years of age. We almost sold Chiellini at that age. He would have gone to some random epl side. Barzagli was a car crash at age 27 for Italy 2008. Netherlands 3:0. He was 27! Yet he went on to become one of our best defenders last decade.

Sell de ligt and chiellini retires and start rugani every week?

Not in todays market. Van Dyke was 90m. Harry Maguire was 95m euros.

Also do you really trust this current management with such money. Didnt Arthur cost between 70-80m? Arthur is the best we can get for 80m euros. No way they will upgrade then.

We will go nowhere when we start selling our quality players like de Ligt thinking we can easily replace them only to end up with an average scrub like Romagnoli. This plan sounds like what Milan and Inter did at the start of the 2010s.

Absolute bs, Berlusconi has decided to sale Milan and that's why he decided to sell the best players available to get more money straight into his pockets and it have nothing it coming with idea to sell DL for 125m and then invest this money into the squad

Funny how this guy is getting away with everything, why nobody's criticizing him?? Oh, yes, what's the point when you have the scapegoats like MdS, Rugani, Arthur and you can take out all the anger on them, we've conceded 2 goals against Villarreal because of him
Match after match after match he's doing some stupid childish mistakes and it seems nobody wants to see it around here - created empty zone for Parejo first, then was fooled by Pau Tores's movement on the corner last night

And even before 1st goal it was him who was sitting too deep and it destroyed defensive line

But his fans won't admit it, if his surname would have been Deligtini and he would have been signed for 15-20m then he would have been roasted here on the daily basis
Abysmal positioning

Surely goal is on Rugani but as central defender it was De Ligt's task to clean up for Danilo and Rugani in 3 man defence
Totally agree. He was a disaster last night and shares the blame for their 1st leg goal.
It's laughable that our best defenders are still Chiello and bonbon with a 85 million defender in our ranks.
Should be sold come summer. Anything above 70 will do. Sign Bremer and a fullback.
Instant improvement.

No one is paying 125 million, and a hefty % of that sale is going to his fat fuck prick of an agent.

Also, bringing in Rudiger on insane wages is the wrong way to go.

Please, rich cunts from the EPL, activate his buyout clause
Nothing wrong in what he said. These are facts. When you lose to fucking Porto, Lyon and Villareal, you don't deserve to be in the conversation.

We've become a meme club with no vision. As long as our VP is too busy kicking advertising boards, and our president keeps believing in hypotheticals instead of focusing on reality, we're fucked. We need people who love this club, understand the sport and understand business to take over.

Dumb signing imo. Doesn't fit the Juventus DNA and is too young to be an elite defender. Id sell and bring in Rudiger if possible. There is always late 20s, early 30s defenders available for purchase, this mistake should not have been made. Had funds in 2019 been directed towards the midfield instead things may have worked out very different the past few years. SMH.

Also just to be clear, I think he will be a top defender, but just not at a club like Juventus. He belongs at Barcelona or Man City. Juventus need an a proper traditional CB.
