We don't need milik, players like mbangula, yildiz and now Nico can play as false 9 and actually better in Motta system than vlahovic.

I think this will be the last season of vlahovic in JJ, he has an unsustainable salary, if another club pays JJ 60+ million next summer he's gone, let them deal with his salary demand.
We are going to sell Chiesa for 10M and you think we will be able to sell Dusan for 60M, even if he scores some goals? What planet bro?

It’s much more likely we sell Yildiz for 20 next summer to fund Conceição. Because remember, we have to keep selling to keep the Ponzi going year/year.

Me? Neither a hater nor a throater. But you have to admit: today was one of the good days.
Agreed but this defense is still one injury away from falling apart. That left hand side has me worried. We don't have a natural LCB and Cabal doesnt convince me as LB.

It would be a pity moving Cambiaso there as he'd be wasted in that position. If last game taught us anything, he shines when he plays an advanced role on the right flank. I suppose with Gonzalez and Conceição arriving, it now makes it unlikely he'll play there again.

I often found Cambiaso better at LB than at RB... It's debateable but certainly not a waste at LB.

Cabal? He's the joker, I guess. Don't know him enough but he started well (against a weak Como).

Anyway, why invest in defenders. They don't win you games. They don't assist or score.

Nico + Conceicao: Juve is flying. The bianconeri barrels: the wingers have been signed. Now Koopmeiners.

what defenders did juve lose from last season? Sandro and Rugani? They replaced them with Cabal and Kalulu. Sandro was beyond dusted, no doubt Cabal is an upgrade there. A healthy Kalulu > Rugani.

Also, dont forget Rouhi. His time will come

Can't believe I'd want an Englishmen here, but Sancho doesn't behave like most of them, seems fairly humble, and has a soft spoken voice. Bring him, but only if the deal is right.

He’s actually played and performed better outside of England. I think he’d do amazingly well here.
I agree, I think he's misunderstood as well.

Mentally he's weak but then so was pogba. We're the right club for him, we will give him love, protect his self esteem and in return hopefully he gives his all. Not a player you'd want to play in a final or in crunch matches though because he's all about external validation. ETH doesn't think before he speaks and very direct. Terzic is a people person, as is Motta so hopefully he will get the best out of him.

You’re right but also I think he’d suit the way Motta wants to play 100% to a tee.

Can someone tell me who do we have on RW, LW, and who can play RB and LB?

Nico is a RW. What about Conceicao, RW, LW, or both? Cambiaso can also cover all sides. Yildiz too on the left side, and that Belgian kid who scored the opener vs Como. Chiesa is a goner I believe. Weah can cover the RW, or RB, but he sucks everywhere. Danilo can play at RB. What about Kalulu? I guess McKennie can also be an option on the right, albeit a terrible one. Is Cabal a LB?

Do you think we're settled in these positions or we might get someone else? Which 4 do you see as starters?
Conceicao can play both flanks and he's left footed, cutting inside is one of his traits so I think he will play predominantly on the right.
