Add sales in to the mix and I think we have cash left over mainly for Pereyra as be barely spent anything last Summer.

RvP is a luxury. If he's too much just keep Matri or whatever.


I think it's the best most balanced mercato we could do. Long term fullbacks especially in 4312 is mor imporrtant than a fancy new name imo. Need new blood at fullback.

We need better backups than freaking Matri.Yup,its the season to reshake our depthd

Looks amazing, but RVP doesn't seem doable because of very high salaries. Also if you put in Pereyra's signing (14M), you're talking about spending 50/60M in signings this summer. Not going to happen IMO.
Again,no on will be willing to pay him anything over 6m(even that i doubt) considering his age and form.He has to take a paycut wherever he goes.Its definitely doable,much more so than Falcao.

Forget the likes of RVP, Cavani and Falcao. We're not that strong economically to afford these kind of deals yet.

I still think we'll go after Dybala. Llorente will leave and Zaza will take his place. Llorente's transfer fee + getting rid of his wages will give us some nice boost while Zaza will come basically for free (we'll most probably give away Berardi's half valued at 15m for whole card of Zaza who we can buy for 15m too). Matri and Pepe will be gone too and I can see us going for a CM/AM type of player to complete the mercato (some people here might hate it but I can see us trying to go for Pastore who's on his last year of the contract).
I can see Berardi coming back in 2016 when Tevez leaves. This scenario is very probable IMO.

RVP is nearly 32.Man U want to take him off their books desperately.Considering his age and form,he isnt going to get a high salary in competitive leagues.How is it not feasible ?

Absolutely agreed. The importance of fullbacks in a 4 men defense is often overlooked because there aren't lots of good ones.

But if we manage to get 2 fullbacks who can offer width, pace and aggressiveness (Evra has been doing well, but he offers other stuff), this team will go to another level.

I really wish Marotta would focus on this. But I don't think so, since Litch is locked up, we like Caceres, Evra has been solid and Asamoah will probably be a full time fullback, which is a waste IMO.

If we get only Darmian I'd be already happy with it.

I agree we need to improve upon fullback positions but realistically i can see us getting only one this summer.This is why Darmian becomes such a desirable signing as he can play both sides.

I dont like getting a player like RVP right now. We are getting a big financial boost we dont need old players to be used as back ups. POintless to me. How many games will we use him over Tevez and Morata next season? None of the big games so lets bring in some younger talents and develope since we have our pair for next season. Falcao is a bit more interesting as he could be a top player potentially again

RvP is just an afterthought, honestly sign me up for the cheapest 'decent' #9 we can get. Just needed a placeholder name in there.


Fullbacks is massively important for me, esp in a 4-3-1-2 moving forward. 2 Younger quality Fullbacks would make a MASSIVE difference to our game. And thankfully somebody like Darmian and Kurzawa are nowhere near the price bracket of a shiny, new hyped striker.

Soo, let's say we have 45M to spend this summer + plus sales:

OUT:
Ogbonna (7M)
Llorente (10M)
Isla (1.5M loan)
Gabbiadini (6M)
Caceres (8M) - I really like him, but we need an offensive RB as option to Litch. Caceres has the same characteristics and Litch is locked up, he's going nowhere.
Pepe, Matri, etc

So

Total to spend: 45 + 33 = 78M.

IN
Rugani (4M)
Pereyra (14M)
Dybala (30M)
Zaza (Berardi exchange)
Darmian (15M)
Kurzawa (15M)
Neto (free)

Starting 11 (41212):

Buffon
Darmian Barzagli Bonucci Kurzawa
Marchisio
Vidal Pogba
Tevez
Dybala Morata


bench:

Neto
Licht Rugani Chiellini Evra
Pirlo
Sturaro Asamoah
Pereyra
Coman Zaza

I think our biggest priority is CAM if we intend to play this in the future. Pereyra is great but he's better at CM. When Pirlo leaves we will need him there anyways as first choice backup for MVP.

I would put a lot of effort towards De Bruyne and then Dybala. I would only go for one fullback this summer. Darmian would be fine. I don't think we need two right away.

I would consider selling Berardi's other half if it means we end the mercato with Darmian, De Bruyne, Dybala.

Forget Zaza. You can find a bench striker for way cheaper.
