He can't even get past Bonucci nowadays, CF will suit him the best.
In a long run, there's no way 35 year old player is going to be playing as a LW for that many years anymore, so it would be smart to finally adapt to a complete CF. I mean, it's almost comical to think that 37 year old Ronaldo in 2021/2022 season flanking on left, beating enemies 1v1's and trying to get something done.

Maybe not but Ronaldo aint some limited poacher he created alot of goals last year and did see him dribbling/beating plenty of players last season and in are biggest matches too.

Try PSG by sending them Dybala, Costa and Cancelo for Neymar and see what they say..Just want to annoy Barca fans even more :lol:

Italy new tax heaven baby :klin:

also, don't forget that Neymar was in Turin a few months ago for a commercial with Ronaldo, and you guys know superstars get mesmerized whenever they get to Turin :klin:

Yeah, so I usually find myself saying: "we have the ability to take on more debt, we've fine financially". Neymar would break the bank unless PSG is willing to sell him at a massive loss. That being said Neymar-Ronaldo-Costa would be absolute torture for defenders.

But at the same time, we had to start Matuidi because he can run enough to compensate for Ronaldo on the left side. And we had to start Mandzukic for most of the year as well in the centre. And we could only defend with 8 players instead of 9 and looked vulnerable defensively.

There are different ways to look at the team construction regarding Ronaldo. I'm not sure what the correct answer is. I know Ronaldo is the best LW and the best ST on the team though.

Why stop there? Lets throw in co-ownership of the stadium, the team bus, and Agnelli's wife too.

People who still says that we can't afford massive wages are living under the rock and doesn't follow our transfer activities for the last few years. We can afford anything wage-wise. Especially after new tax law. Offload Gonzalo and Khedira and you have the room.
I still say we can't afford Neymar. In Higuain case, if we can sell him for a price equal to his amortization (36M), it still takes no gain compare to last season.

Even intelligent coach like Allegri struggle to find an answer when it comes to balance in defence phase.

What midfielder? Haha
Because it better be a good midfielder. Neymar when actually focused and motivated is a top 3 player in the world.

Opt 1 if that middlefielder is Eriksen. it would be something like 130m for Eriksen + Icardi and we could almost supply all of it by selling Dybala.



-----------------------Icardi--------------------------

CR7--------------Eriksen---------------Berna


----------Pjanic---------------Rabiot-----------


AS-----Chiellini-----De Ligt-------Cancelo


-----------------------Woj----------------------------



Just look at it; we wouldn't need to be afraid of anybody.
