Zirkzee shouldn't be more then a second option.. So unless we're talking about replacing Milik (which could be the case soon) he shouldn't be considered...

FYI - I'm noticing a lot of Arsenal fans calling Calafiori a complete waste of money and total bum. If Jungtoli was smart he would lead a psyop against him and Arsenal so we can grab him on the cheap in the summer. 
Oh, I agree. But I'm not a big Zirkzee fan. But the guys in charge might think otherwise.

Yeah that's the one. I've not seen much of him but he gets a lot of hype. Also seems quite mature for a young player and captains his team. I wouldn't have thought he'd get to the level we need but Ferguson has done far better than I expected so who knows. A move to a mid table Serie A team would be a sensible move for him.

Guintoli and a post knee injury player? I'm sure he is all over him.
To be honest pre-injury I wasn't 100% sold on him. He's a good player but I'm not sure he is the level for a starter in a scudetto chasing team, which is what we should be basing on signings on.
If the price was low and his injury isn't too bad he could be a good squad option. He is good tactically and knows what Motta wants. He is also the sort of player you could play anywhere and he'd put in a solid performance. But the injury is the issue. We've seen with others that you don't always get back to the same level from knee injuries (although given that the is not an explosive player it might not be as big an issue). It really just depends on his injury and the price which probably wouldn't be low enough for the gamble.

We need balance between maturity and experience and youngsters. We are loosing another leader in Danilo, i wasn't his fan tbf but he was a good player and one of the captains. U cant just go and replace another leader with 20 or 21 yo defender, we are not fucking Ajax, we need someone who can handle pressure and did play under it. I would tend to say that our current situation is mostly related to playing so many unexperienced players. Adding another guys who didn't handle a pressure like at Juve and played for some shitty club is a big risk.
None of those purchases made by Junktoli 
He went even worse, full force.
He sold them Serie A current 3rd top goal-scorer for peanuts and splashed huge chunk of money on Nico, who played like 3-4 games for us.
Stop defending what can't be defended.
You, @Robee , @campionesidd and @DanielSz were dead wrong.
Time to leave the dark side and jump off the Giuntoli lap which you rode so long.
We're welcoming you back to the cool squad. But only if you apologize to me, @Lion, @Bjerknes and @JCK.
