There is no way we'll get JoJo and Higuain in the same summer. Ita going to be Rossi/Ramirez if we close them for 15m or under and Higuain at best. Excluding of course the purchases of Cissokho and Nainggolan. Little or no chance of Sahin, and we missed the boat with Pizarro.

So who is going to be our Del Piero replacement?
I don't think that's a priority like it was last year before Conte took over. Now with the team playing to a system, the first priority is going to be getting good players that fit that, rather than a larger than life figure to win over the fans. There's no doubt we need some firepower up front, but spending 30m on a Higuain will be more to accede to the system than to find somebody specifically to replace Alex.

I mean who will we be buying to replace him. Not an actual "replacement". You know what I mean. :D

We need a "wow factor" player, though. Maybe not the same characteristics as Ale, but a player that can attack like him AND fit into Conte's hardworking system.

I just can't help but wonder what the club is thinking about the post-DP era now. Who will come? Who will they try and convince to fill his shoes?

Has RM bought Neymar yet?

I don't think we even bought the ticket for Pizarro, and he's not someone we should be looking at to buy in the summer anyway.

I think Marotta and co will end up feeling forced to spend big money on at least one star signing, not those in the Krasic or Vucinic price range. With the CL this would help both financially and in terms of lure.
