How can you call my view optimistic. I think it's been a good mercato. We've got rid of the players we wanted gone except Diego and upgraded all the other posistions near enough.

He's done a good job.
Nick, most of the sold players we gave them for free and we agreed to pay their wages (or part of it)...
How is that called good deals?

4.5 for buying players who are established within the league, so they will adapt quickly to the style of play. Clearly he's been consciously eyeing the more versatile variety, the sort of players who can play multiple positions. Martinez and Traore, Pepe to some extent would be some examples. And not just the sale of two of the teams most creative exponents, but also for HUGELY devaluing Diego and Giovinco. Imagine playing the 4-4-2, like we did in '06 with players who arent half as good. It's going to be a long, depressing season.

Questionable business on more than one occasion. The golden handshake to Trezeguet, wherein we lost his services, and yet pay his salary. Marotta's deals seem to suggest fixing the club financially for some reason, almost like Secco and co. left it in the red. This sort of clearout, would've made more sense four years ago. We've just set ourselves back a couple of years with this mercato, not only with the appointment of the coach, but also the moves we've made. These seem like the kind of players he would've bought for Sampdoria, after they qualified for the CL. Which is perhaps why, he's buying them with a Juve budget. The Moggi era is long gone.

I had huge expectations, because I thought Marotta had one eye on the scudetto. Turns out, it was the lazy eye.

Only Krasic and Aquilani were good (one being injury prone) while Bonucci is a good shot. The rest is :tdown: Especially Diego's departure and his replacement.

Huge disappointment IMO.

EDIT: Oh yeah, Motta...but it's still 2
