Rate Juve's mercato (5 Viewers)
- Thread starter Mark
- Start date
Our objective for the mercato was to retain all players we had which was what Allegri wanted and to aim for CL we need to upgrade.
The good - Signed Cuadrado back, taking Pjanic for a reasonable fee, taking Benatia, getting a young talent like Pjaca
The bad - Losing Pogba and Morata as we wanted to retain all the players we had, not plugging in the midfield hole
The unknown - Higuain will he justify the 90 million, Alves i think will flop here, how Khedira, Asa and Marchisio will cope with their injuries.
8/10

lol yeah, people are overreacting again. its basically the same midfield bench as last season, we lost Pereyra who didnt play much anyway and wasnt an important member of our rotation, and we only replaced one starting mid (its a downgrade yes, but not that much to start worrying and thinking we cant compete for the CL suddenly). last season we had Lemina, Asa an Pereyra all miss half a season, Khedira missing a lot of games (more than he will miss this season im sure) and Marchisio out from February on. this season we only nee 2 out of our starting trio to be fit for the closing months of the season and we will have no problems carrying the season out

they could come in and score a goal though, you know, like Sturaro did vs Munchen

Pogba and Morata*
We should have got another quality midfielder. As.i said before, I don't believe Pjanic-Marchisio-Khedira is good enough, nor is it balanced, plus Khedira will probably be missing for stretches.
I really don't fancy our chances against other top midfields. I could be wrong, but that's how I see it for now

We have upgraded on Morata. You're starting to sound like you're gay for him like Marchisio. Its getting unhealthy man ffs. I love Morata but man you really need to stop acting like he's a big loss. We've effectively compensated for Morata with Higuaín and Pjaca. That's a big upgrade. Our attack is much more stronger now and it's undeniable.
I agree with you about the midfield part. Some people are over rating it too much. I have concerns about it definitely and I personally don't think this midfield is good enough to go all the way in the CL. Hope I am wrong but I can't see it somehow.
