#Juve will not recall #Djalo (and also #Rugani ) from the loan for the month of January.
Among the ideas of these last few hours, there is that of bringing Javier #GilPuche permanently into the first team. The boy called up by #Motta for the challenge with Parma is well regarded in the environment and enjoys a lot of trust.
Jonas Rouhi will get more minutes as LB and Gil Puche will get time as LCB until January. Still hopeful Cabal injury is not worst as reported.

I still think Zirkzee will be/should be the target forward in January, he seems the most realistic and knows Mottas system.

Skriniar for CB.

LB just depends on how Rouhi plays and if there are any other injuries.

There are only 8 games left before the transfer window opens. They just need to survive with what they’ve got until then. A free agent isnt gonna come in and make much of an impact in that time, especially since it’s really just the depth that’s taken a hit. Makes more sense to integrate some of the younger players. Who knows, maybe they play well. If they don’t, January really isnt that far away.

Right but the deals must be made before January, so those players could come right from the get go.

My prediction: one permanent CB signing, one loan LB and one loan ST. I'd take zirkzee as loan ST option

Skriniar? Hard no for me. He is damaged goods. Didn't Marotta organise a meeting between Skriniar and 'Ndrangheta so they could pressure Skriniar to renew? The wiretaps said Skriniar was trembling at that meeting.

This guy has been damaged goods ever since, hence the situation at PSG. I don't think he wants to live in Northern Italy after what happened.

There has to be a better option - we just need a reliable body who can play the position.

It's a lot harder in the winter window. Clubs aren't looking to sell their good players in the middle of a season, either because they're competing for something or trying to avoid relegation. It's a very limited market.

These are the times you look for a short term stopgap for an out of favor player, or a team in a tough situation with a player contractually (like Tah at Leverkusen).

Like if some team is decimated in the midfield and just needs some bodies to help get through the season, I'm sure Juve could get a call about someone like Arthur for a half season loan.

i don't know why

i think that everything points to at least two new players: a defender and a striker. with cabal's injury an other defender is needed too
yeah, defender is a must, even Giuntoli said it afaik.
I wouldnt be suprised if we will actually shop in Manure and get both Zirkzee and Lindelof, if Zirkzee if really on his way out - I would expect them to give him more chance.

I dont know about damaged goods but I highly dislike this guy therefore I dont want us to sign him BUT I do have to admit - He is currently the strongest defender we can get and Im not even sure there is much of a competition.
If we do get him, it means the club thinks very well in terms of how to deal and get bargains BUT also that the club dont care about their fans`s wishes.
If we dont - We might be doing a mistake as he does seem like the best option BUT we can continue in harmony and dislike players for not performing rather than them being pieces of s***

Well yes and no. I mean Zirkzee is indeed familiar with the Motta style but is also not really of a mighty goalscorer.
I guess it wouldnt hurt to loan with option (but no obligations..)

why would you think that when giuntoli said they will?
Didnt he also say he will explore options within the club?
Im sure they will though.
