So instead of selling a defender who can't defend dead, we should sell one who at least can half-ass his defensive duties, and buy another who can't defend but on the other side?

They are simply talking from experience. Almost every year we break even when it comes to transfers. We sell and then buy, or the other way around. But we never splash the cash without a plan to cover the costs with sales. I can see us selling players like Cancelo, Costa, Dybala... to fund new players.
Even after we signed Ronaldo, we went on to sell many players. People never paid to much attention to this, because these players weren't in our squad anyway. We collected a lot of money.

Why has Pogba's price gone up? £150M on one guy or 3 quality players for £50M each I think it's a no-brainer. Also, Ronaldo will prefer to play wing as he always has so in the middle you still have either Higuain or Mandzukic so is that what people want? Dybala is easily more dynamic than those two.
I see shirt sales dropping because of that hideous design.

Maybe not X100 but he is better
I think we did well passing on him as we get nothing by signing him.. The time for Bonucci and Hummels has passed and now its time to get a younger better defender

So what you are saying is we should keep the one who cant defend and sell the one who can do it all and probably just needed a new tactical approach?!
A.Sandro with the right coach will be the best LB in the world IMO - He can defend attack dribble cross he can do it all - Why hasnt he did what he can?! I have no idea but maybe a fresh approach will make it happen...
Cancelo - Dont get me wrong I like the player but I do put my liking aside and think of what we need - We need someone who can at least be decent when defending while can attack well
Attacking wise he is probably the best RB in the world but defending wise - He just isnt there... Reminds me a bit of the Bale situation which he first played as WB and then Tottenham understood he can be much better as a winger and then he blossomed.
Unfortunately Cancelo needs the space to run from behind which makes it difficult to use him properly..
Maybe a 3-5-2 could do the trick as there will be enough cover at the back allowing him to attack but then again we all know what tactic Sarri will use..

So you think we would be asking 150M pounds which is around 170M Euro should he be our player and asking for a move? I highly doubt it...
Its because we are too nice - I suspect our approach might change in the near future..

The truth is none of us know what we have to spend or if we will go big or penny pinch. The fact is nothing has happened yet it’s all just rumours and fantasies, I sure as hell don’t believe we will pay 150m for Pogba even if we do sell Cancelo and Dybala. Any juve fan who thinks spending that kind of money on him is frankly an idiot
Naah..
People dont buy Juventus shirts because they are just too beautiful and make women drool on whoever wears them... People buy Juventus shirts because they are fans of Juventus/Ronaldo or football in general...
If people want pretty shirts they would buy Armanis and designer clothes and not football shirts..

There is a guy named Momblano he knows everything...

Huh? Artists in the USA like Drake, Gunna etc have no clue about anyone and they wear Juventus shirt because they like the looks. Obviously not the coming season but a lot of people in the USA who doesn’t even know a single player in Juve nor anything about football, wear mostly Juventus shirt. I love that.
Drake etc could also be because of ADIDAS but still, obviously you should get my point. All of them don’t work with adidas. Drake doesn’t anymore too so we’ll see. He’s a friend of Pogba too but yeah we’ve seen him with a Juve shirt multiple times.
Juventus shirts are super popular in the USA, and none of them know anyting about football. And once again, artists love our black and white shirts. Google it yourself.
he covers only Italy. I'm covering all of Europe.
