Why is it so bad though?
You guys all wished for the following positions to be filled: LB, RB, CB, RM, LM, CM(after poulsen)
RB: Motta (Good, considering many of you rated him highly)
CB: Bonucci: Great buy and you know it.
CB: Sorensen? No Idea who the hell that is, sorry
LB: Traore: Someone fast to add pace on the left, young, and hopefully better than DC.
RM: Krasic (Good, again someone everyone wanted)
LM: Pepe (Decent, not great but consistently above average and has done well)
CM: Aquilani (You all wanted a non destroyer and someone that can pass, here he is)
SS: Martinez...
Let's just wait and see.
Additional:
Diego gone as result of our system and a guy that knows the league brought in..Quag. We will see how he does, I will wait to see his performances in the next few games before I judge. I will miss Diego.
We signed: Motta, Traore, Krasic, Pepe, Lanzafame, Aquilani, Quag, Martinez, Bonucci, Sorensen?, Rinaudo, and I'm forgetting someone else.
We fixed some major problems and probably started some others. Not getting a striker will come back to haunt us this I promise you.

Well it started out pretty good, I was extremely satisfied, for once we also thought about some back-up players, I thought Marotta knew what he was doing with bringing in Pepe and Martinez. They would be back-up, with all the injuries we have, and succeeding in Europe, some back-up players were needed. So we signed Bonucci, Motta, Martinez and Storari.
Storari: I do think he is one of the better goalkeepers, he's doing great so far but 4.5 mil? I would've rather given Manninger a chance.
Motta: Loan deal, he's nothing to get exciting about, avarage at best, good crosser, less defender but he was an upgrade to Grygera/Zebina
Bonucci: Hard to judge, unlike others I do see him as the best buy this summer, a new CB was essential, I would've wanted that they brought in Gallas or Burdisso but so far Bonucci is doing okay, already scored a goal.
Martinez: Like I said before about him, I followed him at his former club sometimes but he wasn't anything special, he was good for Lazio's level, but for Juve? No. He can't function as a winger, is utterly crap so far and should've never been here, we gave him a 5 year deal iirc
Pepe: Shouldn't be here either, I would've rather seen a lot of other wingers.
Later on we sold PouPou, I never liked Poulsen but he wasn't the player that got injured every freaking month, he could pass but that's about it, terrible going forward. Scored a good goal tho under Ranieri with extreme luck.
For PouPou we got Aquilani, an oppisite of Poulsen as a midfielder, goes forward, but is also known as Injuryman.
Until so far we had a great mercato, we brought in some good players and our squad was going to look like this:
Storari
Motta - Bonucci - Chiellini - LB
Krasic - Aquilani - Marchisio - Lanzafame
Diego
Amauri / Ianquinta
I'm a huge fan of the 4-4-1 formation, it kinda looks like a 4-2-3-1 and I thought Diego pulled off in that formation.
Krasic got signed, I thought a new CB and a LB was all we needed.
Then the bad shit happened, Diego got sold, Quag was here, Marotta gone apeshit for Italian players. Taking out Diego shouldn't ever been done everyone can understand that. Think about the Inter and AC Milan TIM matches. We started against Inter with DP - Trez. 0 shots on goal, 0 creativity. The Milan match got played with Diego - Amauri, and Diego was pulling of amazing things, he did everything and scored in the end. We won that match, those matches showed a lot to me about how we should aproach this coming season. I was happy with using DP as a supersub and Diego starting. That was brilliant IMO like what it showed against that Irish pub team.
I would give this summer a 4/10 because we lost creativity. Quag isn't that, DP shouldn't start and Del Neri is a useless cunt imo, Benitez wasn't my favorite either but Del Neri is something I can't understand it. Shit happened and we will be better but it would take some years for Juve to build because this wasn't building the squad, this was destroying creativity, bring in some bullshit players like Quag and Martinez who don't bring that and hoping to get in the CL with some luck.

This was easy,it could have easily been 4.5/5 if we got a player with Cassano calibre and a left back,just a proper proven left back would have been sufficient, but no..we will stick to the mediocre italians plus a new frenchie..I did ask for a frenchie to start in our 11,so from now on,im gonna pray that Armand Traore is gonna kick ass and be even better than Ashley Cole..
So 2/5 for the transfers in
and as for the transfers out then is 1/5

Some good deals : Krasic, Aquilani, Bonucci, but some silly decisions such is sending Giovinco away and selling Trez while paying his wages, not to mention Diego for 15,5mil....this was like someone said Marotta to sell as much as he can no matter what the price is.
Getting Martinez for 12 mil was pretty much interesting as well since I expect him to follow the Tiago trend.
Anyway far from being satisfied which is 2/5.

I give it an 8!
out of 20
in all seriousness i thought it was fantastic until the day diego was sold (not so much actually selling him but his price), and even then if we had kept giovinco I would of not felt as depressed as I am now. The wheels have come off, but I also believe this is the start of some "new project"....fourth, which seems like our boards goal this year, and I thibnk it is definetly attainable
so in a couple words
pepe, quag (not considering him as diego replacement), motta, bonucci, aquilani, krasic = great buys imo
selling deigo = wtf
loaning giovinco while knowing all along you were going to offload gio = double wtf
martinez = ?????
biggest mistake = hiring a coach to take control of a top team withouit any flexibility formation wise is fucking ludacris
