3 straight domestic doubles, the last 2 with over 90 points... and 2 CL finals in 3 years.
Anyone bitching about this is a loon.
While there are players I wish we hadn't lost (Morata + Vidal) and "1 chubby player" I wish we hadn't spent more than 60-70 mil on... our management and coach have done a masterful job at keeping this squad at the absolute top for the past 3 years.
People bitching about it before we've even made a move this mercato are being truly pathetic.

You might be right but i dont see him last much longer at top level, and if you remember, our mercato looked done before we sold him in 2015, then we went for Alex Sandro, Cuadrado etc later. Im not sure we would be able to bring Alex Sandro if we hadnt sold Vidal, and from this perspective, that seems like a good trade to me
Exactly man.even if most of us don't complain and appreciate what we have here.
Sometimes you read the complainings and you think: unfuckingbelievable.
Are we bad?no.
we getting knocked out in the group stages of the CL?no.
Didn't we won the title 6 times in a row?we did.
3 doubles in a row?we did.
2 CL finals in 3 years?we did!
So we lost ANOTHER CL final,so what???
We're a great team,that is getting better every season,and will continue to grow to fight with the rich big dogs overthere,just like we do now.
People imo are too obsessed with the CL finals losses.
Grande Juve,Fino alla Fine!!
Forza Juve!!

If we fail to upgrade the midfield, then it's a failed mercato for me. We can't keep relying on an inconsistent/injured Marchisio, headless Stu, and the much maligned (for good reason) Rincon as midfield options. We need more power and physicality in that midfield.

Sending Pjaca out on loan will be a mistake. We need all the help we can get. When he comes back, familiarizes himself with the system, an reaches peak form, he will shit all over the likes of Costa.

Yeah. So what indeed. Let's not get upset or give a fuck about the competition that matters most, the one we haven't won in 21 years, and lost 5 successive finals in. No biggie. No, really! Let's keep patting ourselves on the back for destroying the pathetic "competition" we have domestically (kind of like the Cavs beating up on inferior teams in the East) and then getting crushed/destroyed/pulverized in our most important game of the season.- - - Updated - - -
Other way round Bro.
Pjaca has a chance to make an impact here. Kean won't get many opportunities and should go out on loan Yeah. So what indeed.

And I'd rather lose 20 CL finals in a row, than be a group stage/Rof16 exit every single season.
The point being that we are right up there at the very top of the game. Winning all our domestic competitions, beating multiple top teams in the CL. As long as we continue being a top 2-3 team in Europe most season's we will eventually get a final right. We very clearly have a strong enough team to do it, as evidenced by getting to the CL final by destroying both Barca and Monaco, and then being the better team in the first half. A second half, complete meltdown in the CL final doesn't change they fact we had a great season.
Yes, it would be fucking amazing to win the CL again. But this fucking pathetic bitching like we're some minnow and having terrible seasons all because of losing two CL finals while the club has been in the midst of rebuilding itself into a European powerhouse again.
Shame on everyone bashing this management.
The fact you don't recognize this is sad.
Wanting continued improvement is one thing. Acting like a pathetic entitled bitch about it is another entirely.
