Look, we can go over this from now til the next mercato. Chances of upgrading the first team were slim without selling established players - we've got an insanely strong bench which can definitely be considered an upgrade. We've even got a few players for the bench (Morata, Coman, Romulu) who can legitimately challenge for a starting berth if they do well enough.
I disagree. The bench players that will play the most significant roles consist of Marchisio (first option for the midfield), Caceres/Ogbonna (first option for the defense), and depending upon on the system, either Pepe or Morata. You can't say you improve the first team when you didn't even upgrade the main subs to the usual starting eleven.
Everyone has problems, but this isn't my problem, it's Moratta's and Juve's. Basically he got a bunch of bench players but didn't really improve the first team, especially considering Vucinic was probably better than Morata. That's a damn shame.

I disagree that they are major improvements. I am hoping Coman can play a major role, but Morata is still a question mark compared to Vucinic and Romulo had a similar season to Isla before joining Juve (he had a good season, does some nice things, but isn't anything special).
Not to mention most teams work to improve the starting eleven, whether it be Real, Atletico, Roma, or BSC Young Boys. Unless Coman becomes something big right now, we only got a couple of good substitutes who might not even play a major role, plus we paid big for some of them. So what am I missing here? I don't think anything. Hope the team does well.

There was a clear need for creativity on this team that was never met this summer. So saying that this team is difficult to upgrade isn't completely true. A lot of money ended up being spent on the wrong players. Pereyra for example, I still don't understand the need for him and that massive fee. 17m for a guy who is the 5th or 6th choice in midfield? Why?

Because you dont undestand our mercato, whilst it has been explained many times
We upgraded the bench, and got players we could use on the wing. This means we can actually rotate wich will result in keeping players fresh for important games and got valuable options in case of injuries/suspension. Meanwhile we added major talent, wich allready showed itself in the very first game.
You say we needed creativity and it was not met. The fact that our 18year old signing was man of the match and impressed the whole penisula, tells us that you are talking plain bullshit
