Losing Huijsen just adds to the list of disappointments of having already sold De Winter and Dragusin
This. If Kenan failed in his first start against Frosinone instead of scoring, I think he would have been out on loan like the others. It's a gamble, when you get that chance you really got to take it. There's also the hope of getting that chance at the expense of an injury crisis. Unfortunately for the guys you mentioned we were already stacked in defence and Motta doesn't want to take risks with a youngster at a big club like Juve.

As soon as we missed out on Calafiori we should of sealed Todibo.

Especially after selling Huijsen.
But they didn’t “miss out” on Calafiori, they decided he wasn’t worth the price. Seems like a similar thing is happening with Todibo. Both players preferred Juve. I’m ok with not spending 40M on a todibo. The bigger question is where do they go from here

We could have gone for Pavlovic, oh wait... Giuntoli fell asleep there too.

Honestly right, as bad as Chelsea and their players have been this past year. Badiashile on loan with buy out option would be a decent idea. He's not even in the plans of Maresca

Forza Junes, taking his time not panic signing players and getting us deals.
Only problem with his procrastination and dicking around is time is running out. He fucked around and found out, so in all probability he will have to panic and get us a trash defender a la Gatti or an expired fossil like Hummels.

CBs we once had: Romero, Dragusin, De Winter.

CBs Sold (or to be sold) this Mercato: Rugani, Huijsen, and Djalo (soon).

CBs missed out on: Calafiori and Todibo.

What we are left with: Danilo, Bremer, Cabal, and Trash Can.

but it is panic buy time. calafiori was number one target

failed

back up option todibo

failed

he should have negotiated these deals from MAY. instead he wasted time on signing a 4th goalie

that 20m wasted was difference between signing one of cala or todibo and was wasted now. and it's biting the team back

the dominos of this 20m wasted is showing now.

don't worry. the throaters all ready prepared the excuse of "HE CAN'T FIX THE TEAM IN ONE WINDOW" since market opened.
Don't forget the ones with ultra coping who'll say, "it's not a big loss anyway and we're fine as things are and - we can always promote players from NextGen/within."

My favorites are the ones who say it's his loss and he should have waited for us indefinitely.
