yeah and really on Kulusevski he was on the verge of becoming worth less than 20m, yet he was able to milk 40m or even more, cant remember the exact numbers. He gets slaughtered for the mercatos done by Paratici and the last one when CR7 decided to leave 3 days prior to the end of mercato, lets wait with those blames until he really gets done summer mercato in normal circumstances.
I dislike how passive he was in the last summer mercato. We didn't offload Ramsey or Rabiot or Sandro or Bernardeschi or Rugani or almost any of our deadwood who are on way too high wages. Paratici signed those contracts, but Cherubini hasn't acted fast enough to clear up the wage bill.

The main thing i hold him slightly accountable for is the Kean transfer and the fact that they somehow believed for a moment that he could lead the line for us and ended up wasting half a season without a real ST in the team, which was rather a last moment desperate move forced by circumstances more than anything… and he eventually more or less made up for it in the January window.

I guess the jury is still out on him and we will only get a better idea of what he is really capable of building once this summer is over and the new season gets underway.

You call those players deadwood on high wages and in the same time hold Bini responsible for not selling them?
In order to sell whatever good you need to have a party interested in buying.
Why Madrid is unable to offload Bale or Hazard? Why United couldn't sell Martial? Why Tottenham couldn't sell Ndombele? The list goes on.

Well we had by far the largest wage bill, ~twice as big as Milans, and they outperformed us by 16 points. Its not one or two players who are grossly overpaid here, its 30-40% of the squad.

If you cant sell them, loan them with an obligation or at least an option. If you cant loan them, loan and pay a part of their salary or rescind with a golden handshake instead of waiting multiple years for their lucrative contracts to run out. Cherubini only woke up in the winter, loaning Ramsey to Rangers and now we have talks of a larger possible cleanup this summer. Part of the cleanup couldve and shouldve been done last summer.

I think that a solution could be found for Bernardeschi for example

Not sure what someone like him does?

200 games, in which he was utter shite for circa 130, bang average for about 50, solid for 17, and an absolute boss in 3.

Let's not forget he's also injured 30% of the time, and this decision screams incompetence.

De Shitlio is like the Turdeski of FBs.

Eclectic? Check
Jabroni? Check
Italian? Check
Useless for the majority of his pathetic stint as a Juventus player? Check
Disliked by B81? Check

The only difference is that he's a more affordable piece of shit Jabroni than Turdeski, and that's why we are probably renewing the former and not the latter.
Can’t disagree bro, just trying to figure out what the board thinks

The best we can do here is recoup as much cash and if that means loaning Kulusevski and Bentancur to Spurs and watching them do well, so be it. Also, we invest a lot money for these players to do well in our team.

Imagine lying on your CV saying you have quality but turning out to be a fraud, you get sacked immediately. We can't do that with players, I'm looking at Arthur, Ramsey etc.

damn, i must say i also really hate that decision of renewing MDS and im usually really positive when it comes to already owned players. I would even renew Berna before him. Still have in my memory those defensive blunders he had in the few games he played. I remember one certain moment when commentators were laughing at him, that a player who behaves like him in defence shouldnt be any where near Juve, this was so embarrasing.
We really shouldnt be relieng on players like him anymore

You guys do realize that we brought Pogba for free from ManU, then we sold him to ManU for 100 million and now we could get him for free from ManU.

ManU bunch of dumb motherfuckers.
Probably the most profitable player in the club`s history..
I just wonder why we didnt try a trade with Pogba Dybala - This way we prevent him from going to Inter..

Juventus and Atalanta have not yet reached an agreement for Luis Muriel. Juve has offered €10M whilst Atalanta want €14M there is still a bit of a gap but finding an agreement does seem to be likely. (Calciomercato)

Would you guys like to vote:

1. Muriel to Juventus is the real deal for a Juve backup.
2. Muriel to Juventus is smokescreen and the real target will surprise us.
3. Muriel to Juventus will just confirm that we're becoming average club like Napoli or Roma.
