I think Allegri likes Hernanes, more than Asamoah so maybe its the Ghanian.
I hope Allegri gets his shid together and do not hang onto him.

It seems he is on good terms with hernanes and even goes out of his way to defend him. Butthe reality is that Hernanes needs to be DISPATCHED. He is of no use because he cannot be trusted.

We will get Verratti, in 2019! He will still be 26-27 then, which should give him at least 5 solid years with us. I'd go all out for James in the summer; I'd even sacrifice Berardi if it meant securing James.

We've already secured Caldara for the 2018 season, and he'll spend next season on loan at Atalanta. As for the midfield, Bentacur and Mandragora will most definitely spend next season on loan somewhere else. We need reinforcements in midfield, and Nzonzi (experience), Tolisso, and Dahoud seem like realistic targets (young, talented, lots of potential). I'd love for us to get that Mbappe kid from Monaco (they have so many interesting players), but we can't buy everyone. We need a competent RB/RWB as both Licht and Dani Alves are unreliable and ageing. Grimaldo and Danilo are options I guess.

In terms of youth prospects, we should try and secure both Orsolini and Pellegri, and make sure we secure the few unpolished gems we have in our youth setup.

    As you're quoting yourself I guess we're getting him, aren't we?
    Well his name came up today again after I mentioned the other day there was a strong chance we could get him in the summer.

    I don't trust Aulas though. He's a mix of Wolfsburg and Zenit GM's/Prez. :D

    Verratti is going to be unbelievably expensive. If we go all in for Verratti, we'll struggle to address our other issues namely a physical midfielder and a RB.

    If Verratti were to be available, Barca or Madrid would be the first ones to pounce in him especially the former whose midfield is in a terrible state.
    Marotta said that we would sign Higuain even if Pogba stayed.

    That's just posturing. I don't believe that at all.

    Tomorrow he'll sell Dybala and buy Verratti with that money and when he says the same thing, you'll still believe him.

    In my post i used them just as an example to show how many CMs we need to sell, obviously we arent getting Verratti (he will never play here). No idea about others
    PSg hates us, so what?
    He will cost gazillions, so what?.

    No deal is impossible bar messi and cristiano.

    Verrati was at the verge of coming here years ago. We are a top team and we are in a position that we can pay the money. Our midfield is in dire needs of WC quality and he fits the bill, so the money invested can be backed up.

    The deal si super complicated, but by no means is "impossible".

    yeh, i dont believe we would go for Higuain without pogba sale.

    Or maybe yes but then no Pjanic for sure.

    Evra needs to go.
