I have been thinking about all of this as well. I truly think, and hope we will get one more midfielder (after Poulsen), and there is an outside chance we'll even get one more defender (even if its just a loan for Ivanovic...or anyone really). That being said, the management is doing EXACTLY what they should be one year removed from coming back to Seria A: creating a squad worthy of a challenge.
Think about it, for the first time since relegation, we have both money, and a goal (CL). We need depth across the board. Poulsen will no way be asked to play as a cornerstone of midfield, but come February, after countless matches in League, Cup, CL, and for most - the National Team friendlies, he will have to eat up minutes.
He's the perfect solution for a game against the Samptdorias, and the Napolis of the world. He'll do great doing what he's asked - back up.
This team cannot afford to throw money at absolute elite players yet. It will next year, but first we have to build a DEEP solid base for the team, and Poulsen fits that. I know its infuriating, but there will always be Diegos and VDVs next year. They are just the flavor du jour. So give the board time to REBUILD. I know "THIS IS JUVE," but this is Juve after a massive relegation hit... These players will do just fine for now, might even challenge for scudetto, and go deep into all competitions. Winning all of them at the same time comes next.
FORZA JUVE.:flag3:
