If Caldara is gone, i'll just convince myself we never had him in the first place
Milan was the only buyer for Higuain. They couldnt afford Higuain unless they sell Bonucci (cant afford wages of both), so they had to get rid of him.
Bonucci also wanted to leave, but as always with this guy, he wants to stay in Italy, so no buyers. So only Juve could buy him.
Milan also had to find Bonu replacement and we have too many defenders if Bonu is to come. Also Milan inisted on Mattia to be included in the deal.
From managment perspective (when u take into consideration players quality, players will and $) both clubs have gains from this deal.
We reduce already big squad and wont have to pay huge wages to a bench player. While Milan gets their star striker and sell unhappy player.
Caldara is the victim for us, but we still improve defense, though we get older guy for a "prospect" (even though can you really call 24 years old player a prospect?).

FACT: While most here are nagging and bitching, the club is doing everything in their power to ensure that next season's starting XI is better than the previous one. And it will be, by quite some margin.
Yes, Bonucci will come, and yes, what he did last year was despicable. But surely you must see that getting an experienced highly regarded CB for an unproven youngster is an upgrade?
And I'm saying this in spite of the fact that I want Caldara to stay. In a few years, he can become a very good defender. I don't believe he will be a new Barzagli or a new Nesta, but I believe he will be quality. So it's a shame to lose him when considering the long term.
But the club has decided that this year is the year we go all in, and they are banking on ready-made stars / experienced internationals rather than youth. In my opinion, sometimes this is justified. Unless you wanna be Arsenal and opt for youth all over the park so as to claim: "Some day, lads! Some days these headless chickens will be very good and then we'll win lads!"
We have a squad full of world class players and superstars now, the team is improving and our popularity and revenues are soaring. And we just signed the best player in the world. We got Cancelo and Can on board and now Chiellini soon will partner up with a top CB who he has great chemistry with.
We're a fantastic team and ready to push for trophies on all fronts, even in Europe where we are among the favourites next season.
All thanks to a disgusting management and a 2/10 mercato :

When did positive Jem return?
"Chelsea have put their support behind this transfer the manager is asking for, and they have made a pretty big offer, which Juventus are aware of. On the other hand, Juventus have several times so far been very clear and have repeated their resolve not to sell the player because they deem him important.
"And they have consistently done this throughout these past years." This is the quote of his agent few days back
