“A group of players adapted to Allegri is being created.”
“We want to build a winning team for a global brand.”
“De Ligt? We are back to talking about players who follow the advice of their agents or colleagues instead of the club. Today it is impossible to keep a player who wants to leave.”
“How did the Pogback happen? If the numbers are sustainable, you have to take the idea to the board of directors and you can't present yourself without numbers that hold logic.”
“Dybala? There had been an agreement for the renewal, then there was the capital increase, we all took a break, of which the agents were informedand agreed, in order to carry out evaluations within the board.”
“We met again and said that the terms had changed, because we wanted to move differently. So from a 4-year contract at certain figures we changed to another strategy. Also because everyone knows who arrived in January.”
“But that didn't compromise relations, there was no war between us and Dybala. Let's say there was a decision without ifs and buts on this matter and we put it into action. Juventus is above everything.”
“Juve's goal is to keep the team at the highest level and aim for high goals. We are planning for a Juve that starts from football but expands into other dimensions, we want to go beyond the concept of a club and become a global company.“
“Juve is 'emotion', which is why I believe we can create a product that interests not only football fans. The series on Amazon was an experiment. Like Ferrari? That is a brand born global, Juve can become one.”

“I'm often mistaken for a sports director, but I don't think I even have the skills to do that. My task, as managing director, is to create a strategy. I thought it was simpler, but it's a complex system.“
“We always try to plan everything, but there is the human factor. We are talking about footballers, not machines. On a sporting level, Cherubini is in charge, my role is to support him & evaluate together an idea that may seem crazy at first.”
“In a market operation there is no fixed strategy. We all sit around a table, evaluate numbers: there are those who would like to buy the world & those who are more cautious, but after a few hours of discussion we all share the same approach.”
“Pogba’s presence will also be fundamental from a commercial point of view, although my dream is to have an Italian player who is recognised internationally: a Totti, a Del Piero, a Buffon.”
“The effects of the pandemic have not passed, we are closing a very painful balance sheet. The closure of the Stadium and the museum have caused us 75/80mln€ losses over two financial years.“
“I don't want to criticise, but do you know that, for example, Douglas Costa will still affect the next budget?”
“It is not a change of direction, but we need reference points. I have seen the Ronaldo effect on our youngsters, now players like Fagioli, Soulé and Miretti must have players to learn from.”

You can be as motivated as you can get but footballers are human at the end of day professional or not and will always succumb to pressure from fans in the stadium.

Just ask any team that has visited Anfield or clubs like City and Chelsea when they buckled at the Bernabeu this season due to the extra energy the fans gave Madrid and the pressure they put on their opposition.

I didn't mention anything about not wanting stadiums to be safe and already stated how I don't want them full of ultras either so I don't know what you meant or if you were talking about my post specifically.

I do feel stadiums need to find a happy medium between something that is inclusive for everyone but also able to make the visiting side know they are facing an uphill battle when facing our fans.
Ask Real when they succumbed to Juve in 2003 at home... Enough examples the other way around. I find it a useless motivation. If a players needs that, he has to go.

In bold; exactly. And that can perfectly be done with families as well. You don't pay hundreds of euro's to go and watch a team you don't support, especially kids can be very vocal if they identify with the team. But that's where it's gone wrong for now imo.

Tbh it are usually the diehard fans who create the real atmosphere, not children. The problem lies between the ultras and the board

That depends on how you view atmosphere. But they're certainly the troublemakers.

I'm all for the ultras as party starters but they should kept in line more.

Are people really bickering over stadium atmosphere :lol:

clubs prioritize ticket buyers who have a higher WTP and cede larger wallet share

until things really change this is how revenue streams are prioritized for any pro sporting organization

Ticketing
Media rights
Sponsorships
Partnerships
Merchandise
Alternative events like concerts( if they own the venue)

Single game Ticket buyers are useless for large clubs like Juventus. They make their gate revenue from recurring and package purchases. I doubt many families or smelly wannabe tough euros can afford it. Think bigger my ladies bc Agnelli has that part right.

I haven't met a single ultra yet who isn't sitting on 20 years worth of season tickets (depends on age) with 10 beers bought every match.

That's financially speaking

Beyond that I am sure and I've been a witness of this many times that the crowd can drive a team to a win and a great crowd will earn a reputation and ensure constant demand for tickets which will in the end outperform the positive effects of champagne crowd plusvalenza

I will explain for Murricans: When u honk to support them troops, them troops actually don't hear. But if them troops heard they would be happy and smile and feel nice!

I've witnessed the opposite many times too...

Also, those 10 beers are often the cause of many problems. If stadiums and their surroundings in Italy, continue to be this unsafe, they'll all have empty seats. The ultra era boomed a few decades ago. Consider it over if you want progress.
You need a good mix of both nowadays and we're lacking.

This guy's a very good interlocutor. Translates all the papers in English. He's close with Agresti. Explains the recent Arrivabene interview here.

So basically the interview about players listening to their agents few months ago was about MdL not Dybala. In this case we know that an issue with MdL contract last a longer that few last days, so we probabyl already planned something hopefully.
