Ye CALM DOWN.
Let's keep defending Marotta...
We lost 2 cms and we brought A BROKEN ONE.
So we still miss 2 midfielders.
We lost Tevez?
We spent 80m on 3 strikers which combined don't make half of what Tevez would.
We needed an AM!!!
We're at 30/08/2015 and our only option left was Draxler. Which is gone.
But hey we got Sandro!! and D_YBALA 40m!!!! my god super mercato!
Shitty Shitty Shitty one!
Now we'll play roma with Padoin as playmaker and Sandro,Cuadrado will be rotting in bench for whatever reason.
See us being still 0points after 2 matches.
Just 2 words come to up to me ..... YOU (not you Dolph just in general)

for those who still think we don't need a cm, today's tuttosport reports:
- khedira won't be available against frosinone (as previewed); recovery takes more time than expected, doctors are cautious, won't rush the comeback
- asamoah still at least a month away from competitive football
- at least marchisio will be back for the next match
so basically we lost vidal and pirlo from the midfield, and bought in nobody that we can actually use. no surprise that many see this start of the season as the most frustrating one in the history of mankind.

This is in essence true. But not when your coach explicitly asks for a certain type of player to play a formation he prefers after losing arguably the three most important pillars of the team. Jesus H Christ.

I don't know if we have just been plain confused, lazy or over confident this mercato? Have absolutely no idea, but our priorities have been all over the place. We would've had an arguably as effective mercato if we had just signed a top AM, Sandro and maybe a couple more players from our list of signing rather than the 10 players we signed now, with no AM to show for it. Our mentality has just been more opportunity led than showing urgency for a position that was the actual need of the hour. Makes me wonder where Contes frustrations came from. And I'm pretty sure, Allegri himself is pretty annoyed with all of this too.

We got Khedira before we sold Vidal and it made sense at that time in the sense that he was for free and would be good for rotation. Also Khedira was meant maybe to replace Pirlo who was supposed to either leave or hit the bench. We then sold Vidal and decided that Khedira is more than enough to fill his place.
khedira had a bad last year. that´s obviously very true but still i consider it kinda unlucky that he comes here and straight away suffers the second longest injury lay-off of his career (as far as i´m aware of).
i know he was refering to asamoah but the marchisio injury was the one that cracked us up (in combination with the other).
with marchisio we could start pogba - marchisio - pereyra/sturaro which is a great midfield.

Juventus risk missing out on both Julian Draxler and Axel Witsel, as the Zenit man only wants Milan.
The Bianconeri have been looking for a trequartista to play between the lines since the start of the summer, but hit brick walls at every turn.
Last night it emerged that Schalke were pulling Draxler off the market because they didn’t want to risk Wolfsburg beating Juve’s offer for the midfielder.
The next target on the list is Witsel, who Zenit will allow to leave for €3m loan plus mandatory option to buy for €22m if he makes 20 appearances.
However, there are problems here too, as Tuttomercatoweb insist Witsel has his heart set on Milan and will accept no other destination.
The transfer deadline is on Monday, so time is running out for the Bianconeri.

I didn't mean chronologically the version of events 
I meant as ranking of the mistakes we made in the summer. Signing Khedira was second on my list. The guy was a flat out opportunity signing in the fact of Allan at 14m.

The mistakes we did in my opinion rank in this order
1- Selling Vidal in the manner we did
2- The lack of a proper plan after a decent cash flow from Vidal
3- Buying Zaza
4- Believing that Khedira is a suitable replacement for Vidal
5- Donating Llorente a player with a contract and a value is not charity donations
6- Loaning Coman out the same way Udinese loans out its players.
