Lenglet’s name is being floated around as well.

Anyone seen him play recently ?

He seems to have fallen down Barca’s pecking order but i’m not sure if it’s strictly down to form or other reasons.

I haven't seen anything to justify his wages, I don't get all this "potential" ratings.
I don't see glimpses of a ball handler like Cannavaro or hard nose like Chiellini who in similar situation would and should cost at least 200M by todays "potential" standards.
I wanted to like this guy more, there is something there just not at these wages yet.

Lenglet is absolute dogshit.

He's the French equivalent of a Jabroni - Les Dechets.

:shifty: I mean if it's ball handling you want, he's been doing it pretty well in our area, conceding all those penalties in the process.

EPL Clubs totally ruined the football. they make the sport unfair.
Why would you blame EPL clubs if they are making more money than all of Serie A qnd able to buy and give high salaries in the most competitive league atm..


Either whole of Calcio in Italy starts some revolution or just accept the reality of our status

Howbthe fuck are you guys evaluating MDL based on Juve's squad over the last 3 seasons..

We overpaid (probably, he was going to barca on same price)
He gets alot more than he deserves (for sure)..


But he is top CB.. he is World Class CB for sure..
Canavarro and Nesta always played with strong midfielders in front of them..
Anyway,, for 100m, i would sell and use that to rebuild..

A functioning strong and dynamic Midfield can cover up for any mid level CBs..
I mean CBs who do not fuck up.. like Mc whatever playing in ManU

It's football. it's not casino. they destroyed loyalty and commit to the club with insane investment. sport entirely down to money and oil. italy in term of financial and economic has the worst condition in this period of time. Italy is no longer as rich as north Europe.

If he wants out, he can go for all I care. I've seen some good games, some bad games and mostly some OK games but never really lived up to his price tag. Might as well sell him when his stock remains high.

Only problem is Bonucci can't be a starter anymore. He has regressed way too much. This would mean we potentially need 2 or 3 new CB's.

Loyality does not exist in football anymore..
Football is an entertainment business nowadays..
Players are employees..
Same as any other employee in any other industry..
They will evaluate offers based on their own interests..
And at the moment.. EPL clubs are offering most of those interests..

More Money,, career,, experience,, more fun,, more fame etc

the clubs should have boundaries on every thing from salary to players so on that level it is unfair, while in EPL team are spending huge number of money without any restrictions and now it has become farmers league with city winning league every year.

so being fan of a club doesn't make sense. fans should support every club which spend more money.

We bring back Pogba with about same salary as De Ligt, Pogba has fitness issues while MDL has been fit most of the times.
De Ligt salary is 8+4 , so i have no idea if he gets paid 8 or 12m .

Let’s not forget tax rule , Juve paying Pogba 8m is less than paying De Ligt exactly the same salary.

But again I’m not sure we pay him “only” 8m .

Losing Chiellini and De Ligt in one transfer window, what could go wrong ? Last breaths of a dead club in a dead league. Might as well follow Eredivisie.
Did you become a Juve fan because it was winning?

Once upon a time the money was in Serie A.
Only Italians could fuck up such a huge advantage. And how did they do it? Yep, a joke trial.
