Dybala 8/10
Sandro 7/10
Mandzuik 5/10
Rugani 7/10
Khedira 3/10 (4.5/10 since he is free)
Zaza 3.5/10
Lemina 6/10 (for price and what I have read)
Cuadrado 5/10 (6/10 due to price)
Hernanes 5/10 (6/10 for price and leadership)
Neto 7/10
I give the Mercato 5.5/10 including what we lost. If we landed a stud AM, would have been a 8/10.
- Prilo will be missed but was a liability on defense and players are getting faster.
- Tevez was going to leave anyway, so I'm less sour here.
- Vidal for 38mil is a joke. If we knew this, we should have went for nainggolan for $20mil. Would have been a perfect replacement, very similar player but less yellow cards (don't get me wrong Vidal is better)
- Coman stings but he is very raw. He is fast, quick, but very little control. I see him being a Gervinho with a better shot. He needs a lot of work and will struggle at Bayern.
- Isla/llorente/ogbonna good players, great clubhouse characters, not at our level though.
That's my full analysis. I am very worried about all cohesion between new players, especially on offensive side between midfield and forwards. I do NOT think Allegri is a strong enough manager to take on this much of a rebuild.
Think we will make a run... But will come down to last three games with Roma and Inter for Scudetto.

IN summary this. I would add the failure of selling llorente for some money-...as he left for free.
Marotta did some really silly moves... but also did some bold ones. Ill not be as cruel to say a 4/10.. but ill give him a 6/10. BUT.... ill wait to give my final verdict when we reach 3/4 of the season, because to be honest a lot of signings are a mystery to me in how good they will turn out.
Signings like Cuadrado, Rugani, Dybala and even Hernanes have the potential to turn really good for us.
Still... the stupid sales done by marotta will never be good...... but ill give him the chance to show that his signings were spot on to balance his wrong doings.
6/10 (but could turn potentialy into a better score depending on how we do). But as of now, 6/10....too dangerous approach to the mercato and sub par sellings

Funny how people have a short memory.
Accusations aimed at Marotta :
-Can't splash money on good players (dybala)
-Can't sign proper left back (Evra and Sandro)
-Can't get rid of players even for free because wages are too high (llorente)
- Can't sign attacking midfielder (hernanes)
- can only sign players that are past it (rugani, pogba, dybala)
-Can't all players for big money (vidals sale was big money considering his age, prolonged knee problems, private/mental problems and a sub par season)
-Can't balance the books (loaning out a player we would not use anyways like Coman was good business. Any secret clauses is pure conspiracy theory bs )
All those Accusations were already debunked but still they pop up again makes me wonder who the one with the crooked eye is... Marotta or his haters.
