"free" replacement for De Ligt who's money you can use elsewhere. We've seen this story before
Would be incredibly disappointing. Given how Bonucci has declined on a physical level, there would likely be long stretches next season with Rugani as a starter. God forbid we don't see that.

I hope we postpone De Ligt's sale by atleast another season, otherwise the defense will be our new problem area. Besides the new incoming CB will have one solid season under his belt so losing De Ligt next year would be less damaging as opposed to this summer.

We're kidding ourselves if we think Emerson is not an upgrade. He's not the player anyone is dreaming of but he's quite reliable and experienced. I guess Allegri liked that and hopefully that means more investments in midfield and attack.

was rabiot an upgrade over ageing matuidi? was he the right upgrade?

the bar should be set higher than incremental upgrades over our finished players like sandro or good old chiello.

The reality is we can not reach that bar in every position of need. Plus there are no real quality LBs for the taking either imo.
And no, I don't consider Rabiot an upgrade over Matuidi who was a good soldier for us.

I'd rather invest big in our biggest problem area: midfield. Just my 2 cents. I won't be complaining if we get Emerson, Jorginho, Pogba/Gravenberch for instance...

Huge mistake to offload Arthur. The guy has been really good during our 20 game streak.

I'll disagree. He has been good at holding the ball but it starts and ends there imo :). That position should be filled in by someone who's either a defensive powerhouse or someone who can spread play and speed it up.

But selling depends on the price ofc.

Rudiger would be a great signing. Speaks italian, knows the league, has massively improved playing in the PL, that’s a no brainier for me. To sign a player of his quality that is in contract would cost us 50m as a minimum.

CM is the real problem area, only Loca is good enough to start for Juventus. Zak will be an ok back up. Jorginho if available would be a quality signing, rovella and Fagioli should stick around. We need 2 signings in that area though.

We shouldn’t buy Kean as he’s not shown any promise, Morata we should sign if we can get him for around 20m. Dybala we should only renew on our terms. It leaves us short up front. Berardi would be interesting as he looks like he’s ready to leave now, Dembele on a free is an option for the wings

This is going to be the most important window in a long long time, make or break

Dembele :howler: :rofl:

Another piece of shit footballer who's more interested in playing Fortnite and his Instagram followers -fuck that mental midget. Fuck Berardi too - that overrated cunt can stay where he is (big fish in a mid sized pond).

What’s funny is that a couple years ago you were probably bitching about how we could only sign Italian jabronis like Chiesa instead of the Dembeles of the footballing world.
:lol2:

Silence peasant. Dembele was awesome for Dotmund, but he's become a steaming pile of shit - he lacks discipline. You were probably creaming your Canadian loins at the prospect of Dembele joining us during his Dortmund days.

I was never against Chiesa, only wary of the amount of money we spent on him because of our past dealings with them (Melo and Turdeski).

Arthur's brain can't process vertical football. He's a liability and should be sold asap.

emerson lol
rudiger on 7m net lol, imagine agent fees too

we'd need someone like jorginho who can play in front of the defense comfortably and reliably for 40 games per season, that's not really debatable

Doesn't sound too bad if we consider the tax break into the equation :boh:

Lol. You called Chiesa an overrated jabroni multiple times.

By the way, biggest overrated jabroni in CL is Dybala. He’s as big of a pussy as Rabiot there. :)

You’ve got a lot of opinions about who you don’t want, everyone is shit apparently. So who do you want?
