oh yes, Udinese missing the champions league and us getting 25m extra was really something they banked on when signing Asamoah last summer.
Of course not but it's unlikely that 65m were surprise for mgt. GDS published it few days ago but mgt included majority of it a few months ago in their reports.

Before Udine crashed out last year 40-50m was expected more or less.

Don't hate someone for making a stupid life choice, pity them for the garbage they'll have to was through in regret, quite literally in this case.
I would but the truth is he would make Napoli a much stronger team. I'd be worried if that deal happens. Besides, he's a Juventino and too young to come back to Italy yet (unless it's to join us), especially for a club like Naples when there is interest from all over the continent. It'd feel like a stab in the back.

I think the signings from last summer had already been budgeted for. I don't really think they expected those 65m they got. And let's be real, Juventus is a very rich club. They don't don't live or die depending on CL money.

And what do we have from last year? Basically the Asamoah signing and that signing was suppose to be paid over a few years.
You think Juve budget one year at a time and don't have broad longer term spending plans?

Juve budgeted for getting to the last 16 of the CL, so at least half of that 65m will have been budgeted for and allocated before it even arrived.

And Juve absolutely do need CL money just now. There may be a time in the future when losing that amount of cash wouldn't be too big a problem, but right now Juve definitely need it.

To be fair we would have budgeted a best case/worst case scenario for the CL. It's worth about €40m to us very worst case scenario, so the difference there of €25m doesn't really allow us to go out and make any extra big moves.

I do understand all of that. Hey, I'm very satisfied with what we have and not really see any need for a big money player, Tevez is already that guy. All I'm trying to say is that the Asamoah(and Isla) signing wasn't done through them banking on those 25m extra we managed to achieve with Udinese going out.

Anyway, let's all pray Milan don't make the CL for various of reasons.

Norwich signed Celtic's Hooper.

I really dont understand why we rejected a 10m euro offer..I would be surprised if we get an offer higher than that for Quags.
