Our whole balance is defected!
Ronaldo - I am sure we can exploit him better
Mid - Pjanic is good enough (although shouldnt be the star player) the rest should be bench players...
Defense - We have some talent there but the problem is - When you get a young player - no matter how talented he is - He lacks the experience to fully understand how to do it right!
Chiellini Bonucci would have conceded less goals but this is to be expected
Dybala - At least he got his joy back to his game
We have few ways handling it:
1. Replacing the coach - A coach that will understand better how to exploit our team to the max and might find some balance
2. If Sarri stays (which obviously isnt going to be changed based on 2 losses..):
a. Give him the time and take this year as a transitional year of improving our football (while hoping something will get out of it)
b. Give him reinforcements:
Our team needs lots of reinforcements IMO but the crucial part is our mid:
Pogba to add physique and dominance while adding few assists..
Kante to recover balls help our young defenders and make our counters more lethal
I am not even talking about our attack which I think we could easily upgrade.
Dybala is very good but he lacks something to make himself decisive
Higuain - Yeah he is a good scorer but we need someone who is faster and does an even better job
Ronaldo - I think with the right players he would score way more! He is probably feeling so frustrated with our team (of course he wont say anything about it..)
To be truly the best we need to change players mentality and method!

for the 1% ceo 10k+ a day like me, and agnelli can afford to ho shopping while hungry.

I firmly believe Vidal can make a difference, if only for a few months. In no way, shape or form is he worse than the likes of Khedira, Matuidi, Can, or even Rabiot at this point in time.
Vidal and Tonali in January to inject some pace and tenacity in our lifeless static midfield, and we have a chance.

Problem with our squad is the type of signings we need (WC midfielder & Winger) are not available in Jan & Paratici won’t want to be admitting he got it wrong.
I’m worried by the intense inter links for Vidal. He’s a mould we so desperately need in this pathetic midfield of ours yet he seems set to strengthen our biggest rivals while we have links with no one...
Can swap with Paredes will help the mid but we’re still incredibly short in other areas. I wonder if Allan would be available?

As long as any of our LB/RBs don't go Dani Alves on us and ask to leave, we really need to go all in on the midfield and will need a young striker to rotate with the trident and Costa.
Go all in on Eriksen in January. Don't sit on this if there is even a remote chance. If not him, get Tonali then surge for Eriksen in summer. Basically, 3 of these: Tonali/Eriksn/Pogba/SMS.
A midfield bench next year of Pjanic, Ramsey, Rabiot, Tonali, Eriksen, and one of SMS/Pogba would be outstanding.
Pjanic, Ramsey, Rabiot, Tonali, Ericksen, SMS > Pjanic, Ramsey, Rabiot, Matuidi, Can, Bentancur
