If you look at the team overall,

We've upgraded at GK

We've upgraded in defense

We've (slightly) upgraded our midfield

We've (hugely) upgraded our attack

Heck we have even upgraded our depbthd

Only black mark was giving Caldara away just like that but we have strengthened massively compared to last season. Really really hope we can finally win that CL.

A deal in which we lose Higuain and Caldara in return for Bonucci and some change is disgusting under every angle. I don't care about the moralists here or people in the know. Gonna whistle that bitch Bonucci every time he touches the ball when I attend a Juve game this season.

I think that we are still a midfielder away though, unless they feel that Bentancur can make a monumental leap

They have a lot of CMs. Radja, Vidal, Valero, Brozo, Vecino, Asamoah, Gagliardini. They have 6.5 MF (asa is LB too)
We have: Pjanic, Khedira, Can, Marchisio, Matuidi, Bentancur - we have 6. Bepps if you’re reading this....inter’s midfield is deeper than ours by number, we need one more. And he needs to a big one. He needs to either rhyme with Drogba or sound like a text message.

The angle that makes you see 54m as "some change" is not worth much. Consider changing your angle.

Also keep in mind someone had to go after landing CR7. Higgy and Caldara will land Bonucci + 54 mill. And it must also be seen in connection with CR7, because after that then someone had to go. Higgy/Caldara got sacrificed. Would you rather Pjanic, for example? Dybala?

I'm still confused on how this deal works out.


We forget the money Milan owes us but we make money on the sales of Higs/Caldara to Milan in the region of 54m?

Caldara - Bonucci equal swap (€40M)

Higuain on loan for €18M + €36M option to buy

Basically its €54M + Bonucci for Higuain + Caldara

The last two installments of the €42M transfer fee that was agreed upon last year will be paid in the following 2 seasons. That's a totally separate deal and counts as part of last year's transaction. No need to confuse ourselves.

So, the 42m (last year agreement) will go on a different annual statement than the 54m this summer? Different years but that's still 96m deal. Trying to find a silver lining. Also, wages saved? That's gotta help...
