I don't think we're as weak as people are making it out to be with all the departures.

Tevez is the only big loss as far as I'm concerned.

And we've replaced him with Mandzukic, Dybala and perhaps Draxler and a more experienced Morata.
Basically we have more attacking options than before.

Be honest to yourselves guys, Vidal wasn't that great last year.Nowhere nearhis 2013 form infact.You can see some people really wanted him to be sold asap and the same people are bitching about his departure now.

As for Pirlo, outside of free kicks, he's been plain awful

There is a big overreaction here.Selling Pogba this year would've made us look like Atlético than selling Vidal.
Agree! Only calling Pirlo plain awful is, in my opinion, not justified. True, it wasn't his best season for Juve, but he was still important in some matches.
Tevez is a huge loss but we have an excellent replacement in Dybala. Ok, he still has to improve himself, but how many times did we also say that of a young Ibrahimovic, Cavani, Suarez etc etc. This time, Juve have taken the gamble and I am glad we did.

Vidal has been very important for Juve, but indeed, his last season performance wasn't his best. Don't forget he had a big injury and combining the play style it could be that his best years are behind him already. We covered it with a free agent Khedira who wants to improve himself at Juve that he is still valuable (a bit like the Tevez situation at City). Also we have a young Sturaro and an improving Pereyra. I would really like to see another WC midfielder (with attacking abilities) but seeing the recent developments I don't know if this will happen. With Berardi in mind for the future I am very hopeful.

We could do an inter year.. After the CL final spend so much money we'd end up in mediocrity in a couple years time.
It could easily end up that way, even if we don't spend any. Need to strike a balance, and at the moment you could debate against us doing that.

Nah, if we increase our Draxler offer by 5M, it would put us back 8 years financially.
:D

Won't address most of the post, but I can tell you, you are hugely underestimating the psychological aspect attachéd to these departures in terms of the team's projection, and the internal loss of dressing room pillars. We are now going to have to go out and create the same fear and aura and I'm not sure are making it any easier for ourselves with how we have moved so far.


Please don't get into trouble. Need you to be around, while we see out the close of the mercato.

I don't think so bro

Bonucci, Marchisio,Pogba, Lichtsteiner, Allegri all getting contract extensions means we'll have the same if not a higher wage bill than before.
the acquisitions all make less than the players they are replacing, also llorente should be moved as well otherwise that will be a big failure on marotta considering the zaza debacle.
