Well, people tend to make judgements about any mercato prematurely. Just like last year when we signed Dybala, Sandro and Mandzukic early on - only to lose Tevez, Pirlo and Vidal.
The selling of Zidane and the purchase of Nedved, Thuram and Buffon often is talked about. However, it is important to remember that Those 3 purchases cost MORE than what we got from Zidane. Its not like 1 player in this market gets you 2 or 3 world class players anymore.
You have to look at the mercato as a whole to make a final judgement.
So far:
OUT: Caceres, Cuadrado, Pogba, Morata
IN: Alves, Benatia, Pjanic, Pjaca, Higuain.
I still think its a good mercato but things can get better or worse before Aug 31.
