Which only happened because we didn't start the season with enough cover. We start every season with great signings but... There is always a but. One player that could've made a world of difference that doesn't come. Then January hits and you have to get Fucking Rincon.

The cash is there, damn right we should spend it. We're one of the best in the history of football at getting bargains thanks to Beppe & co but this isn't 2012 any more there's not going to be freebies to improve us any more. We either spend, or the gap we just narrowed down on the 'big 3' will widen again, guaranteed.
And people will point to Higuains transfer, that says nothing when we sold a player for a record fee. We need to do that, without the sales.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying do a man city and spend like retards for the sake of it. Spend wisely but spend, understand you have to spend. If they don't want to then come out and say it, this is our reality. Don't say we don't have the money though, that's bullshit. Especially now. Being frugal has gotten us this far, we are in a healthy position now to loosen those purse strings.

@ spending 200MThe Rincon's are more for the league. Late in the game when we are in control you throw in the little bull dogs and take off key players to rest for the CL. Utility player at best, we need them.

Club always before player. He deserves it, sure, but I don't care who we have playing as long as we win it at this point.

So we made 109m ONLY from the CL. That' doesn't even include TV rights, advertising, stadium, etc. We are killing it financially.
We proved last summer we can spend now, that isn't the issue.
IMO the only "tough" buys will be abroad (Tolisso, etc).
We can use our fringe players/youth players to lower the costs on players like K.Balde, Bernadeschi, etc. That's probably one of the main reasons why we are so focused on youth simply so we can use them are bargaining chips to lower the cost on players in Italy.
We need those difference makers. I maintain that I want Sanchez before anyone else. Then Tolisso. We already have Schick so after the first two we can buy local for all I care.

Sure, but it was the same midfield that got us to the final as well. We mentally caved after the second goal, everyone was bad in possession. No reason at all we shouldn't have beat them yesterday.

I feel that ZZ toyed with us in the first half. He treated the first half as a scouting/scrimmage session. His instructions may have simply been to sustain Juve's best punch which came in the first 10mins as a dominant side should expect in a match against a weaker opponent.
ZZ already knew what to do to win the match while walking into the dressing room at the HT whistle.
