Momblano said Pogba now is in a different position with Juventus it seems that if Dybala Is wanted by man U then we will move on pogba if not it will be SMS ,zaniolo & ndombele

De Lict still in pole for us with Romero as well
I like Pogba - its definitely not a secret but I think SMS would make more sense budget wise.
Pogba is about 160M
SMS is about half of it which means we can get another top player

Pogba is definitely my number one player I want here but for the good of Juventus I think SMS+a top player>Pogba alone

I’m hearing we’re looking into Marquinhos. Maybe a swap with Pjanic. I would love that actually as I rate him. Wouldn’t that be like a Fernandinho? Pep maybe. Just saying init. Don’t shoot.

Hard to disagree but would keep one of Cuadrado and Douglas Costa.
well either we play with wingers or we dont.
Anyway
If we could get a mid trio namely Milinkovic-Ndombele-Pogba I would sell Pjanic,Matuidi and Khedira.

I would never sell Douglas Costa. He is quality. He has been injured but would be such a shame to lose a player like that.
Cuadrado is worthy to keep as a sub. Hopefully he'll be fully fit next year.

I know most would disagree but if we get a good offer for Kean I would value it.

Let's be honest who is going to give us 30m for Higuain and pay his wages?
Unless we pull a China out of him or we're gonna loan him again.

I would also sell Rugani money wise.
Get Romero as youth replacement hook up for a very good defender able to contend with Bonucci for a starting position.

As we need to raise up funds I would sell Perin to Roma for 20m and get Mirante as Szczesny back up (he is a Juventus youth needed for uefa list btw)
Sell all the youngsters we have around.

D.Costa could be the surprise of the season next year IF we do get Pep..
D.Costa has tremendous technical ability and is exactly the type Pep likes - I hope we keep him
Cuadrado - I really dont understand why we should sell him if we only get 15M from him.. For 15M I`d keep him here..

Pep and D. Costa are definitely a great match but don't forget he already him at Bayern and that didn't go all that smooth...

Can someone remind me why Yaya and Pep didn't work out? Cause SMS reminds me a bit of Yaya
At Barca, Pep had the perfect formula in midfield. Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets (who Pep personally promoted from the youth academy). There was just no space for Yaya.

At Man City, Yaya was old and a lazy fuck. Pep wants his midfielders to press aggressively so there was no room for this nonsense

Costa was amazing in his season under Pep. He flopped at Bayern under Ancelotti.
He had some mixed seasons under Pep. Over 3 years seen, not spectacular, not awful either.

Not as you'd want a fully fit D. Costa to set the world on fire. But I'd keep him. He's great, potentially one of the very best around.

Given we do get Pep
Too many leads.. He is ours..
Do you think the June 16th+Pjanic`s photo+everything is a coincidence?! Naah.. Its on purpose to create excitement and make our shares sky rocket again - There are just too many things that need to be ruled out in order to say its not going to happen - Im highly optimistic about it..

He only played one season under Pep. He had an amazing start to that season. Like 12 assists or something in the first 15 matches, and then he picked up a little injury and after returning from it looked poor for most of the 2nd half. And then he was complete shit under Ancelotti. @BayernFan can back this up. I recall him saying that Costa had been world class for a half season there and then a massive disappointment.

Kind of funny because he’s been the exact same in his two years here. One fantastic half season and mostly shit the rest.

Costa actually was really good from November onwards in his first season here, as soon as he got settled he started performing and never looked back.

If he can put his injuries behind him and return to peak fitness, he is likely to succeed with any manager we hire, his style of play is perfect for both Serie A and CL.

Must mix it up with Carlo's time here. Thx.

Anyway, the guy has a crazy amount of potential unfulfilled. If only...

Yes that’s correct. One outstanding half season from him, nearly unplayable. Then followed up by a decent but nothing noteworthy second half of the 15/16 season.

Most of the 16/17 season was bad from him, and he lost his spot to Ribery when he came back from an injury. Didn’t even want to work hard to maintain his spot.

He seems like a “first season player” when you look back.

Would put cuadrado up for sale before costa. Costa is versatile and far more useful.

A lot of big names being named plus pep as manager? I don't know guys...ronaldo was a massive scalp but now pogba, pep, de ligt...seems BS.
