Criscitiello says 20M for each. They want to spend 40M max cash + players to sign both Higuain and Jovetic.
I'll tell you right now we won't sign both. I believe we're using all these deals against each other, trying to find discounts and we'll eventually decide which forward out of Tevez, Higuain, Jovetic we will sign and if we can sign any of them at all.

The worst part is, in the case of such events transpiring, people will still find excuses and defend Marotta, and try to appease themselves somehow 
That was a 4-2-4 iirc.
--------Buffon------------
Licht--Barz--Chiello--PDC--
------Pirlo---Marchisio----
--Pepe-----------Giak----
--------ADP--------------
----------Matri-----------
He also used 4-2-4 extensively at Siena beforehand. I remember all the discussion how he was going to fit Vidal into that formation, so he dropped a striker in favour of a 4-3-3 before switching mid-match vs Inter to a 3-5-2 and then mostly sticking with that, until our defensive injury crisis in Feb '12 when we had Caceres and Vidal/Bonny in the center back positions, at which point he temporarily reverted to a 4-3-3.

What an awesome f*cking game it was though... Licht's opener from Pirlo's first assist, ADP's lofted through ball to Matri, Pepe's strike from ADP's lay off, Vidal's Volley and then Marchisio's dink over the keeper from another Pirlo assist... T'was magic!
Pre-Borriellol Matri!
Pre Angelli dogacting Capitano!
Lo Swing di Pepe!
Pirlo!
I know this sounds almost ridiculous but a part of me thinks we played a better brand of our own game last year compared to this year, last season we looked utterly relentless, always pressing, always fast and mobile, out attackers always breaking forward and pressuring the opponents. I fell that this year we lacked that commitment, drive, resolve, urgency and grinta in comparison to the 2011/12 season.
