Dont know I think Iniesta is already past his prime.. I mean he is still a good player but I wouldnt be that happy if we sign him (I wouldnt be sad as well..) - Now if you want to say look what he did against us I`ll say its because our team let him because of poor approach..
Up until the first goal which means 1st half I didnt notice anyone but Messi and Dembele.. The Messi goal which was Pjanic`s fault IMO changed the game as our team changed their style to a more attacking type of style which was a wrong thing to do against Barca as we played their game and were even more prone to mistakes...
Back to Iniesta - I rather get someone else but free transfer Iniesta wouldnt be a bad move..

MDS and Stu are not going anywhere. DC is gonna be oblogation quite soon IIRC

I'm all in on SMS but if we dont get him, even just one between Goretzka and Kovacic would do for me

Yes and no..
Yes We need to get WC players Real Madrid kind of player targeting - Why? because we need to get to the next level and by doing that our chances will increase significantly compared to our look for bargain method which is good for business but not enough for our CL chances...

As for your In and Out:
Buffon is definitely retiring while Im not sure Barzagli is retiring but I guess he isnt exactly 18 year old so maybe it is going to happen...
Licht is only a shadow of himself anyway
Asamoah - I dont see us selling him unless we get someone who can play LB
De Sciglio?! We just got him so I doubt it...
Sturaro - Honestly Im surprise he wasnt sold this summer
D.Costa is on a 2 year loan so even if we dont take the option which isnt really an option btw... we have him for another year - D.Costa is loan with obligation when he plays X amount of games (dont remember exactly) so we can play him for less than that X and have him for another season even if we dont want him... I think it is still premature to say if we do or do not want him as he just played 4 or 5 games...
In: Leali - I doubt he`ll ever see the Juventus shirt
Goretzka - Yeah like there is even a chance of him coming - He has a bayern tattoo underneath his skin...
De Vrij - Probably...
Spinazzola - Too bad we dont have him this year - He could have easily become our first choice RB...
Lirola - Talented maybe he will come as LB and push Asamoah out..
Sidibe - Are there even links?
Kovacic - He is talented but I dont think he is what we need to get to the next level...
P.S you forgot about Can who will probably come on a free transfer...

My dream mercato for next year will be WC RB WC CM WC DM WC Winger - We will probably get some but not WC and not every of these positions
RB - Spinazzola isnt WC but he`ll do for me
CM - Khedira isnt it anymore and Marchisio cant decide if he is good or bad.. Bentancur if he turns out to be great we can play him but Im not sure if he can get to that level that fast.. This is the position Im sure we wont get anyone for money as I see Can taking that spot and he is good but not WC at least not yet..
DM - This is our most important area - It doesnt has to be DM but it does has to be someone who is great at marking positioning tackling track back a lot and never give up on every ball while have decent passing skills (doesnt has to be a Pirlo in that sense..) dribbling skills would be appreciated but not a must..
Winger - This is only if the duo of D.Costa and Bernardeschi dont prove themselves this year as if they both do there is no point on getting one..
CF - We have Kean so lets see if he can get there - If he is good enough even to be a sub we should give him the chance to grow within the club
CB - With Howedes De Vrij Chiellini Rugani Benatia I doubt we will even try getting someone but if we do it must be a WC defender that can make our defense impeccable...

GK - This is one position that I think we are looking at even if its reported that Sczesney or whatever his name is will be our GK.. I think we are monitoring Milan`s situation this season and if they fail to qualify to the CL and Donnarumma performs we might try to poach him..


The most annoying thing is Higuain who we signed and was WC at the start but became heavy and slow and is not the player he was at Napoli anymore..

Phase 1: Sign Iniesta
Phase 2: Play him as CM in a 3-man midfield, move Dybala to his natural positiion at CF and move to Higuain to his natural position at Burger King.
Phase 3: Profit
fuck that sounds awesome :tuttosport:

Pjanic Sergej
Berna Iniesta Manbro
Dybala

There's another Barca player out of contract next year though :snoop:

Pellegri is already Milan's or we still have a chance? :beppe:
If those 2 goals are what convinced you to post this question than just watch the goals again - The goals were from poor shots from Pellegri and should have been saved by the GK - IMO the GK is to be blamed for both goals...

$#@! that sounds awesome :tuttosport:

Pjanic Sergej
Berna Iniesta Manbro
Dybala
Add a really Juve Material RB and I can see glory on that formation... Imagine to defend that with Manbro switching to CF, Dybala to AM, Iniesta to the left, Dybala switching with Berna in the right and two great FB :green:
