Which examples then?

BTW. I don't want to be the management's apologist, it's not like I'm happy with what's happening to the club these days. However, everything needs its context or we just assume they want to destroy half-a-billion company for fun?
From the top of my head - Allegris fat long term contract, Kean, De Sciglio extension, Paredes loan, Di Maria to a point.

And Paratici probably wasnt destroying the club for fun, he just pulled idiotic moves, similar to the people after him.

adding to what my boy @Nejc said also pogba signing, inabilit to keepy players fit due to horrible medical team, letting dybala go on a free and replacing him with di maria and pogba. every single player has had issues with injuries: chiesa, vlahovic, milik, pogba, that brazilian kid i forogt his name, di maria,

We should chill with the news. Different guys saying different things. Just look at Allegri situation.

If we are a smart club atleast put buy back options into all deals when it comes to our young players.

We need cash and some of them need to develop, to sell the ones we don't need now would be smart only with buy back options. Real did it with many players, Carvajal was at Leverkusen, Morata in Juve.

1. We get cash, we need it alot
2. If they become great we can buy them back, ofcourse we would need to pay a little extra. But hopefully we will be in a better situation in a year or two.

I'd be disappointed to sell Soule. I think he has developed massively since this time a year ago and think it is worth holding on to him for another year. If he can add some shooting ability, he could be a good player.
Needs to build on his shy mentality, some grinta in them anorexic bones would be nice. I'd sell for the right price.

Yes I agree. He grew into the season, 10m or so isn’t worth it for me. We can get those 10m next year aswel, there’s no hurry. He’s basically the only player who’s able to play a bit between the lines

problem is that from September to mid Feb neither of the three ever played together.
Chiesa injured
Vlahovic Pubalgia
Di Maria often injured until world cup.

So we reguarly played with Kostic-Milik-Cuadrado or Kean in
And it didn't matter. You put Milik, Kean, Illing, Soule, Miretti, Barrenechea or crippled Kaio Jorge in Allegri's system and they all look the same after few weeks.

Rightly so because if Allegri is the manager. I won't get excited over any potentially good signings because he turns gold to shit.
It's the lack of a plan or direction that just destroys all my hope. Just look at all the unanswered questions.

Is Allegri just here because they cant afford to fire him? Does he even want to be here? Is there still a chance he wont be coach next year? Are you building a project this summer around a coach who isnt viewed as the long term guy?

Is Manna going to be the Sporting Director? Is he just a stopgap until they can hire Giuntoli? Does he actually have any power to make serious decisions?

What tactics/formation do Juve want to play next season? What players now are key players that will be built around going forward, and who will be sold? It's discouraging when the 2 big name/high priced attacking players in Chiesa & Vlahovic are rumored to be unhappy with Allegri and could be sold this summer.

I dont even know where to start with this club. It's a complete mess from the top down with zero direction or plan.

sure, zidane and messi might be world cup and cl winners, but can they play as wing backs on a cold rainy night vs monza?
And allegri would be critical of them for not being able to do so.

Yes Allegri still here cause we're a miser and Elkan doesn't want to pay him 2years worth of wages to stay home and masturbate
No he doesn't want to be here anymore. He is tired but he has 9milions of reasons to wait and hope someone gonna put him out of his misery without having to surrender any money.
Yeah there is a little chance which is: he realize we won't pay to make him go on a prolonged holiday and he'll try to compromise something "well gimme 3m and we all good"
No we aren't so this summer we're gonna sell at least one between Vlahovic,Chiesa or Bremer aka the only ones worth something and buy none. Why wasting resources on a manager you don't believe in? we're getting back tons of players and this might be also a strategy to makes Allegri go away himself.

Probably if De Laurentis is bent on being a dick and not releasing Giuntoli.
No he won't make any decision bar selling players. I mean the dude is 32yrs old and only experience with Under 23 team. You don't plan anything with someone put there just to hold the seat.

Everyones knows that it's either Vlahovic or Allegri. We just have to see if we manage a decent fee for Vlahovic or if we have to accept another shitty proposal from Bayern cause players has a deal with them and we're too pussy to say no and fuck you. Hi De Ligt?

We will plan our chance on Kean and prolly Icardi on a free loan

Ye it's utterly depressing and it looks like they're doing everything to scrumble things up financially to sell the club at the best value they can next year.
Else any of their past/future actions don't make any sense at least from a sporting pov

Keep no matter what:

Kostic, Danilo, Bremer, Gatti, Fagioli, Rovella, Cambiasso

Get rid no matter what or how:

Pogba, Arthur, Zakaria, Alex Sandro, Bonucci, Paredes, Di Maria

Def keep for a year if we get a different coach:

Chiesa, Vlahovic, Locatelli

Consider selling if we keep Allegri:

Whoever, it literally will not matter who's on the pitch

his best league season: 3 goals

reinforce is a bit of a stretch, isn't it
I know you guys love stats, but keep in mind Weah has been playing RB for most of the season, and after that played LB a lot, too. So 3 goals isn’t bad for someone playing in a back 4.

The cool thing about Weah other than his father is that he can play pretty much anywhere on the flanks. Or even at striker. Fast and strong, would be useful to a good coach.

i don't mind a good left back, and if sandro really goes to galatasaray we'd need one to compete with cambiaso, but as a potential vlahovic alternative? he's the definition of underwhelming
