The drunk part makes it so gay, in Europe it's ok to kiss another dude on the cheek. Why do it when you're drunk though? 
No i m not saying, i also find it less important, whats important as far as i m concerned, is us return on track at becoming competitive some time in the future. But i see us making steps to the opposite direction.
We become more average with every step we make and our long term plans do not focus on building a competitive team.
We make far too many compromises, only to keep the delusional nationalist Italians fans, pleased enough to buy some tickets.
We are not building up a competitive team,just wasting seasons, so the current owners can milk, from the Juve's name, as much as they can.
I have explained in great detail how this was proved in the past 5 years and i have detected the intention and the outcome of this strategy right on the spot, as it actually happened, long before the facts prove me right...
I believe the past years have proved quite the opposite!
I also believe that a competitive team, is as strong, as its weakest link.
The fullback issue has been haunting us for year and we have paid a steep price for that, to permanently solve we only need a minor investment of 10-15mil, just a uneeded Iaquinta, Almiron, Tiago, Poulsen less...
And for this particular moment, we need far better fullbacks than ever, because Conte's 4-2-4 relies on them and if we revert to 4-3-3 thats even worse.
I have serious doubts that Ziegler will keep the pace, in the same level of competitiveness, as the rest of his squadmates.
I believe that an acquisition of a higher rated LB, should be our 3rd priority and should not be overlooked for a 6th consecutive season, with yet another quick fix!
Just like i said Vidal is just promising, but not proven.
Melo was also promising, imo much more promising because of what he did at the highest level with his NT, there is no doubt about as the Real Madrid and market value confirm.
Of course Vidal, as a new toy appease more promising to our eyes now.
But i m old and mature enough to see beyond this.
To replace Melo with Vidal we have sacrificed too much, way too much for this transfer to be judged prudent and Vidal, to justify everything we have sacrificed in financial level and roster compromises, must deliver wonders right away.
Other than positive thinking, objectively there is nothing to guarantee that Vidal will deliver with consistency, much more than Melo, not even the same!
We made a huge, uncalled imo risk, for no particularly good reason
and most importantly, we favor it as a highest priority of more urgent and grave matters.
The trend of spending the majority of our resources and time, on CMs ans SSs, EVERY year, whilst off loading the ones we have bought last year, for free/peanuts. Is disgusting, ridiculous, unacceptable and extremely harmful to our cause!
On the left wing we have Martinez, ffs!!!
Not Marchisio, Melo or Pirlo, but Martinez!!! Who is it more important to spend the 15mil on Vidal to replace Melo and not on Bastos to replace Martinez????
Is the Martinez Vidal Pirlo Krasic midfield, so much better than the
Bastos Melo Pirlo Krasic???
IMO the significantly upgraded midfield is the ones that significantly upgrades the weakest link, not the one who fine tunes the star midfielder.
Maybe to appease the fans, a new star and the promise it brings, will help to sell more tickets, but in the long term, the squad will be strengthened less, if we keep the same level of crappy starters.
As for the CB and LW all we have now, is wishfull thinking, every year at this very critical point, when it becomes obvious that we failed in the transfer market again, ppl's optimism is hurry to balance thing, by considering assumable targets, as certain or inbound acquisitions, but every year we wait until the last day,only to confirm that they didnt arrive again...
And then, they just make up new excuses, you CANNOT at any case judge our mercato, by the acquisition we didnt make and you think/hope that we will do!
The facts are that we have once again failed miserably to hire a proven coach, who can make us competitive again, without risking yet another year.
We failed yet again to make a half decent profit from sales, even from very valuable players, like Melo.
Once again we have favored quality over quantity and further postponed the build up of a decent ammount of top quality starters, by not acquiring a couple of champions, but rather opt for more Pazienza, Ziegler etc
Once again we have given priority to fix minor details, rather than fixing our major issues. Or at least compromise our chances to find an optimal solution to our major issues, by giving them less importance by our minor issues.
