We've spent 75 million so far. For 75 million we could have passed on Quag, Pepe, Matri and Licht and we could have gotten ourselves Mata(25m), Falcao(25m)Vucinic(15m) and Vidal(10.5). 75 million right there. And if we really are planning to spend more money on Vargas then we could use that money to sign Licht too. See how that team got so much better for the same amount of money? Our priorities are fucked up and now we're risking missing out on the Champions League yet again.
You are forgetting the wages we'd have to pay for them and the taxes in Italy so transfer fee wise, it might be correct, but wages wise, it would have costed us a lot more then it costs us now.
People saying stop the Marotta bashing are clearly forgetting the days when we had players such as Zidane, Canna, Thuram, Nedved, Trez, Camo etc.. That's the level we have to return to.. And by not pushing for this kind of deal (Aguero) we wont return to the glory ever. And please stop saying "we have no money"!!!
We have money, but we have no CL, no EL, not enough money to compete with teams like City for wages (12MEuro, that is what we pay this 3 players) and play in a league that is clearly loosing much attraction in the world of football. So of course players like Aguero will choose City (a team that plays CL, plays in an attractive league filled with star players, has the ability to pay 12MEuro/season and is clearly spending to become world class)
History doesn't matter to most of the players, so wake up and forget about the past with Zidane, Nedved, Canna or Thuram, history doesn't make you attractive anymore when more money is involved.
Since 2006 till now this club have wasted around 260 millions on players that we've brought. Imagine what kind of a team we could've created with that kind of money ?!
We keep saying we don't have money yet we've wasted that money on the likes of amauri, martinez, almiron...
Its not money what we lack, its the brains behind that money that doesn't exist in this club.
Amauri had a very good season before he signed for us, it was a risk, but it could have succeeded.

I can't believe how some have not seen this obvious flaw with Juventus.
Regarding Marotta promising Kun, if I remember correctly he said that Juventus has a chance for him unless another club offers a lot more money.
Too many "realists" selling Juve short on everything as though we are some sort of provincial club or something - "we can't buy this" "we can't afford that"
Wake up to yourselves - even after the calciopoli scandal, we are still one of the richest clubs in the world, top 10, and we have the largest support base in Italy and one of the largest world wide.
We CAN afford world class, but we simply don't have the skilled management to do so. We would rather buy a lot of average/above-average players and hope for a miracle.
We can afford the transfer fee, but we can't afford the wages (12Meuro/year for 5 seasons will cost us much more then it costs an EPL team), blame the taxes in Italy, I am sure if this wouldn't have been the case, we would have bought more big signings the last few seasons
Then stop buying
Molinaro
Motta
Grygera
Pepe
Tiago
Andrade
Zebina
Lanzafame
Martinez
Diego and sell in 1 year at massive loss
Rinaudo (WTHELL WAS THAT TRANFSER???)
And a long list of other rejects
Concentrate on a handful of top players - not a whole heap of wish washy rubbish
This might help, but you also need a bit of quantity, we have had periods of 10-12 players injured, in a season were you want to play for awards on 3 levels, you need backups, and this means taking a risk with unproven players, I am not saying all players on that list are understandable transfers, but surely some were worth the gamble.
