Did we pull the option to buy on Pereyra yet? Despite that, I don't know why you hate him so much. Sure, he had bad games, but he has also played exceptionally well in others.
marotta confirmed he was going to sign pereyra permanently at the same press conference as his presentation as JCK said, waste of money

Rugani, Zaza and Berardi will all be coming back in the Summer, there's three players under the age of 23. Add in Sturaro too who's been excellent for Genoa.
zaza? no we have an option to bring him back for 15 mill next summer or 18 mill the following summer again if we buy him that would be utterly criminal, waste of money and not one that will bring further quality to the team

Your statement makes no sense in the context in which we are discussing the problem with a ageing squad of Juventus, where there is a lack of players to take over from the current generation. The leap of quality from Buffon, Barzagli, Chiellini, Pirlo, Licht and Tevez to our youngsters is immense and players liek Romulo, Pereyra, Bonucci, Caceres and Marchisio aren't really shining stars.

And it's wrong. Bayern, Barca and Real all have young [future] world class footballers in their squad. We have one and it'll be a bitch keeping him in Turin.

A real madrid/bayern/barca side has an average of 30,31..so it's ok
Average age of Real Madrid is 26,6.

Marchisio is 28 and Bonucci, Romulo and Caceres are all 27. While definitely not old, they are now in the peak of their career, so you can't exactly call them young either. As noted above, they are older than the average Real Madrid player.

Again, I think we will see a rise in the average age of athletes, but this will be gradual and for now, we should worry about our rather old team.

I didn't call them young.

i think it will be Rugani and Berardi this summer who we will bring back and then next summer Sturaro and Leali. Zaza, even though there are strong rumors i doubt it. i think hes our backup plan for if Real takes Morata back. only then we will sign him IMO

    There's nothing positive about that. You're just gay about him.. :D
    He's good. Good enough that we don't need to spend 20m on Perin or Scuffet. :numnum:

    He's already ours dammit. #YOUTH @Hustini

    They should of bought Trapp when I started showing youtube clips of stopping shots with his feet. :D
    German school of GKs is totally different and so easy to recognize one. And just look at their generations, pure epic stuff ever since Köpke.

    Their are basically the only ones that know how to stop shots with their feet. And they throw themselves uniquely and in the best position to minimize the chance to concede.
