I'm so excited to bolster up our squad with the likes of Orsolini and Schick

Watch out CL

Harsh. We have almost 3 months of mercato left. These are long term signings.

Schick = longterm signing
Costa = overpaying for scrap

Where was Costa mentioned? Quote said Schick and Orsolini.

Harsh? If anything it's blatantly optimistic.

Add in Berna and another Rincon-esque signing and then can we call CL glory a guarantee for the next 3-4 years

Whats with the negativity? This management has got us 2 CL finals in last 3 seasons.

People sounding like we are finishing 6th here.

Just sign Neymar.

Offer Bonucci+Dybala for Neymar. I'd do it. I swear I'd do it.

On who we should be splashing our money:


France were 1 down, and these two were toying with England's players

Let's be honest, everyone toys with England.

 

[X Æ A-12]

Hence N'zonzi

Khedira and Marchisio should be rotation players. They'll get more than enough minutes to appease them but on current form neither should be our go to starters in big games.

Marchisio has an outside chance of forcing his way back in, be it in the 4-2-3-1 or in a 3 man midfield. Sort of like he did way back when Pogba took his place and we moved to a diamond to try and fit all 4 of MVPP in.

Mostly agree but we turn to shit when we use our back up full backs. Even against mediocre opposition. They force us to scrape wins. We should do what we can to get De Sciglio for one side and some affordable rotation player for the other

Licht isn't even solid defensively any more, and he's always been a total liability in possession. Asamoah needs to just go.

I agree that our backup fullbacks are mediocre going forward but, overall, they're not as terrible as they're made out to be and I think their shortcomings can be mitigated. With actual wingers though there would be far less pressure on our fullbacks to play such a large role offensively.

I love Manbro but he and Cuadrado as wingers kind of necessitates having fullbacks who can create a lot offensively. Ideally, any wingers we sign this summer would go some to way fixing that.

 

[Pirlo's Beard]

True, a pair of legit wingers would help alleviate that. I just flat out don't trust our back ups on the ball either at this point. I'd definitely get at least one decent full back closer to 20 than 30 if possible.

Costa & James at least use their right foot. Bernardeschi doesn't appear to at all hahahaha

Have a little more trust in Beppe. When did we ever enter a season weakened rather than improved?
