Marotta and Agnelli should have just shut the fuck up when it came to talking about buying "champions". Too much talk from everyone in positions of power at our club, it's really fucking annoying.

They've set the bar high and no doubt 99% of fans will not be pleased with the players we end up with.

If so, then both of them should GTFO...

To be fair they couldn't exactly say: we're going to buy players we want and don't care if the fans like them! They have to make it seem that everyone we sign is worthy of the juve shirt!

Or, they can just shut the fuck up, aim for good/great players and do it as efficiently as possible.

Then most fans would say why the fuck aren't we linked with anyone...why aren't we speaking about players? Its a lose-lose situation for them, till they sign massive players and gain the trust of the fans.

Don't get me wrong i preferred Moggi's way of buying players by saying absolutely nothing and just surprising everyone...but you get to do that through experience

And Marotta has no experience?!

 

[JuveJay]

Both points are true, fans want to hear something, but feed them too much and they become greedy and it's normal for delusion to come into it.

 

[JuveJay]

Wait, people have just realised that we have already spent €50m on players?

 

[Cuti]

And Marotta has no experience?!

not at a club like juve! if you notice when he is being "cheap" its his experience with sampdoria, cause he had a very limited budget there! Most clubs knew that, so would not expect much from them, however at juve they expect a substantial bid!

 

[Salvo]

We have not spent 50ml, payments were in installments.

He can say something like "We are evaluating players on the market and will aim to raise the quality level of the team," or some crap like that to let the fans know that they are aware that the squad isnt good enough and they are aiming to reinforce it.

But no instead we get big promises, and big talk from Marotta/Elkann/Agnelli about "projects", "3 promised champions" (which is actually one champion now btw), and then have them list out which players we are after and then instantly make excuses as to why we wont land these players - not entering bidding wars, not enough money etc

 

[Cuti]

I'm not saying he is without fault, just said that its almost impossible to please all the fans

Plus they count Pirlo as a champion...agnelli has said it quite a few times

 

[Turk_Bianconero]

So we basically have 25 Million left to buy our promised champions with?

Gilardino and Zaccardo then and we're done.

We are not done. Not without Floro Fucking Flores.

 

[Ahmed]

The fees for Pepe, Motta, Quag and Matri are being paid over the course of 2-3 years IIRC, so there should still be a sizeable chunk of that supposed 70 million left?

12 point something million for this year's installments.

That leaves 57 point something.

Also revenue from sales to come in.

If he brought that small club mentality with him, then he should be sent back to Samp.

Bastos: "With Juve there's contact, but still no offer that satisfy OL, This why i'm still here, I respect the choices of L'OL and his president"

We are waiting for Bastos to finish watching the Copa to finalise the deal.

 

[Cuti]

I could be wrong i mean...but I'm assuming this is the case

 

[JuveJay]

We are waiting for Bastos to finish watching the Copa to finalise the deal.

some guy over on VS reporting that this is a , for 12 million.

dunno how reliable he is but it's VS after all so we'll have to wait and see.

It was reported by CDS , they say the deal was found late last night .
