Why are we paying so much for Iturbe?
Who else is there that isn't going to cost us more and is better?

I personally don't mind it...Iturbe, Coman, Rabiot if it all comes to fruition....if can keep Pogba as well....I don't mind building a great team like this...the alternative is to lose out on every world class player we bid for.

others cost 35/40m+ without 5m instalments for a billion years. :D

oh wait roma offer 15m + bonuses for Yarmolenko.

Beppe!
This is exactly what's wrong with us. We buy decent players, but definitely no world beaters for big money and Roma manages to pull off another good signing for a decent price..

how do we sign world beaters when their price tags are more than what we have to spend overall in the transfer market? And Marotta pulled off Llorente, Tevez, Pogba, Pirlo, Barzagli for peanuts...add Vidal into that mix considering his value is 4 times as much now.

We need to be realistic...we still have a lot of debt as a club...look at eth financials...we don't have the luxury of governments bailing us out of debt.

We need to give Marotta some credit. Vidal cost 10m, Pogba 0m, Llorente 0m, Tevez 10m, Barzagli & Pirlo 0m. Those players make up the nucleus of the team for a total transfer fee of around 20m. Vidal & Pogba alone would be worth EU100m collectively, Llorente is probably worth 18-20 and Tevez is at least worth the same for what we paid for him. He has created value of at least 120m on those alone.

Of course he has made mistakes. But the net result is still positive.

Imagine if France wins the world cup. Pogba will be worth a bomb. If someone wants to spend 100m on him (ala Real Madrid), we could truly become a world class team because when it comes to the squad we are loaded with quality in the CM area more than any other. We could use the proceeds to have a much more competitive overall squad. Still wouldn't want him to go of course.

I think of it this way, I would only be in favor of selling pogba OR vidal if it meant that we could get 2-3 world class players for around the same total transfer fee in positions where we are currently weak. Strictly hypothetically, if it meant we got players like Di Maria, Sanchez and a left back for around the same money, then its a no brainer because the overall starting 11 would be better.

Of course this is unlikely. We should keep Pogba unless someone goes totally crazy on a bid.

We should sign Yedlin. That kid is quality, just turned 20. Let him replace Isla and grow behind Licht. Would be a perfect wingback with great ball control and creativity.


I saw one of the very early pre-season friendlies, before Yedlin had made a professional debut. He is bigger/stronger than he looks.

He was flying by people. And he's grown alot in the past 18 months, passing improved, very good prospect imo. He will not leave for several years though.

Juventus could potentially have 4 players that are worth 185M. :touched:

Pogba 75M, Vidal 55M, Berardi 30M, and Iturbe 25M.

Those are just their rumoured values but its fun to think about. :D

jury still out on berardi, hopefully next season he can build nicely upon his last...people need to see some continuity and consistency to justify price..i guess thats some peoples concern with iturbe which is understandable

but hell, iturbe's quality is clear to see

ive just got this image in my head of Padoin, Quag, Peluso and Isla in a warfield running from Marotta on a rooftop sniping them :lol:
they cant and wont escape

im picturing padoin stooping hiding behind a barrel peeping to the left...while marotta is on his right watching him through the scope..just waiting on the call from patarici

while isla is in a fortified room in his home filled to the ceiling with guns and ammo strapped up like rambo...his latino peeps outside the room armed...some on the lawn with shotguns and machetes just waiting to catch sight of marotta...
