Tonali is 100% a regista. He only plays there for Brescia. He is 18(?) so I'm sure he can change, but his playstyle is developed as a regista.
A natural regista is so hard to find. We should be all over this kid. Send him on loan if the club wants to, but sign him. His profile is rare and his talent looks brilliant. If he continues to grow on our bench or on loan then we use him, if not, there will be no lack of suitors. Brescia are winning Serie B with an 18 year old running the midfield.

Agresti says:
- all roads lead to Allegri staying
- we're looking to improve the defense right now. Varane and Alderweireld are the targets. Doesn't mention Manolas. Rejected Boateng and Umtiti
- in midfield there's Zaniolo (no contact with Roma yet) and Ndombele
- in attack Chiesa is the first option, will cost 60+m. Felix too expensive if Benfica keep insisting on paying his RC
- Dybala and Costa possibly leaving. Dybala wants guarantees he'll play more and play as a striker only. Costa worries because of injuries this season, may be time to cash in
- Pjanić really likes RM. PSG wants Sandro
- he also said we shouldn't expect anything crazy like CR last year. We're working to fill in the gaps and complete the team
Honestly, I'd be shocked if we don't sign Chiesa. That may be a done deal long time ago like it was with Bernardeschi.
Worried there's no mention of any sales in midfield other than Pjanić

Varane and Alderweireld sounds great, but we need them to take reasonable wages. Still think Manolas could be the best buy considering all factors - price, wages, longevity and quality. Personally, id sell one of Bonucci and Rugani and get another CB
Yes to both these young mids
Chiesa is a done dealio imo. Costa gone. Felix depends on Dybala and his and Benficas willingness to get a deal done. We arent gonna pay the clause im afraid
If Pjanic goes to Madrid id be tempted to try and get one of Modric/Kroos. On lower wages though. But i still think Pjanic stays
AS should stay. Dont see a potential replacement thats as good or better. Marcelo would be a short term fix and everyone else either stays or isnt good enough. Alaba? Havent seen him on a regular basis in more than 2 years

Youre right, appologies for the confusion. watched the whole video and apart from some early highlights, hes always the deepest mid in the team

I'm team Manolas. He is 27, world class, full of experience on the big stage. If he can cut it in the CL with Fazio or Jesus next to him, he can cut it with Chiellini or Bonucci. We'd have his prime for the next 6 years or so. Cheaper than similar alternatives.
Joao Felix I haven't seen a single game of his. 120m for a teenager in the Portugese league? That just sounds unrealistic. It also seems (don't really know though) that he is a second striker, like Dybala, like Ronaldo. If we already have trouble accommodating those then spending more than we did on Ronaldo for a teenager in that position seems crazy.
Keep Alex Sandro, he developed into a solid player. He doesn't attack like he used to but he is solid. Doesn't make the poor tackles from last season and doesn't arrive late to defend anymore. If there is big money and he wants to move, then sell him. IMO he isn't worth 60m. I would not want Juve to spend 60m to sign Alex Sandro, but if no one offers this money then there is no need to change.

For the 100m+ untouchable, unsellable Pjanic people who thought Mandzukic was a top 3 striker in the world a few months ago (after complaining about him being in the XI last season) only to change their mind shortly afterwards again and for others who don't quite understand the Icardi rumors:
Andrea Pirlo: "In my opinion, Mario Mandzukic can't be a starter at Juventus in the future." Sky
Pirlo: "Juventus will have to sign a new striker to play alongside Cristiano." Sky

Fun fact: Benatia played for Roma too and was head and shoulders above Manolas.
Current post-injury Benatia isn't, but to say Manolas is head & shoulders better is as funny as saying Mandzo is a top 3 striker in the world.
Manolas would be a decent "mercato opportunity" type signing, but you're gonna be very frustrated when you find out he's on the same level as Benatia and Bonucci (unless we get Varane too).
