We should never do a fire-sale of 2+ midfielders. Getting rid of Ramsey now and possibly another one would be fine, but Arthur must stay at least until summer. Even the reduction in numbers alone would give the 'rest' more opportunities, hence allowing us to recoup more on an eventual sale. Not...

The real reason we must extend is his value. Let's not kid around - COVID or nor - inflation is a state policy these days. His salary would be probably effectively halved by the middle of this extension. Then there is ''plusvalenza'' too. Although the team is horrible these days and its...

That will be the last nail in the coffin of Andrea. John Elkann would bury him alive. This is basic shit in the world of 'murders and acquisitions'. The Agnellis would lose over a billion in this shitstorm, and while these days they are almost above FIAT money, FIAT is still not there.

I hate this 'shared' influence. I believe a man given power should be burdened with the responsibility. Nedved either doesn't have the power, or he is truly inept at his job. Either way the best thing for the club is for him to take a step back. He would remain our legend forever, no doubt. The...

It is another insanity to sell De Ligt, even for 100M. He is the future of our defense. Real offered more then 150M for Mbappe with one year on his contract and no competition from rivals for his signature. Unless we can find 2 more WC defenders on a free or some youngster here turns to be the...

We would be better off using our players and looking for the next best thing. In both positions. Kulusevski might turn out to be a dud, but we wouldn't lose anything. On the other side he might be an improved Dybala... I agree. But that is what the top management are for. Giving a rosy picture...

Why the hell would we sell Kulusevski? Another monumental f.up. Neither would we get the desired plusvalenza, not is his salary a huge problem. We could be without Dybala next season and this guy wouldn't be the worst thing to replace him. He has shown that with Pirlo. Vlahovic is good, but he...

Allegri, being the highest paid coach in Italy, brings real value for money here. But it's not his fault, who wouldn't jump if such an offer arrived. He wants to be the new Lippi, I wanted to be Del Piero, another kid I knew wanted to be Baggio... It's whoever hired him that is obviously out of...

Because accounting standards in general are made for it. Just like banking, brokerage or many other 'hard' to regulate exercises, that were maybe created with a different purpose, but nowadays are a license to steal. Clubs, especially the new 'superpowers' of oil and gas, are hiring those people...

I wonder what is exactly illegal in that swap? What if another club has made or were willing to make a similar offer for either player? How can FIGC regulate players valuations? Moreover both players were on huge contracts.

I am starting to believe it is Agnelli that must vacate his position. His most important job was to find trusted people that are more than good at their jobs. He always had uncle Moggi and co. to ask for advice. His decisions seem to me rather impulsive and destructive. His job should be...

I have a feeling we are neck deep into this 'rebuild'. No vision for the defense. Maybe 1, 3+ years starter and he is a Mino client. Midfield is even more of a mess. Locatelli, hopefully, and that is it folks. Nevermind if he is playing LCM or DM. Still haven't paid for him either. Forwards...

Yeah this is our level right now. We might take a win here and there, when everything goes our way, but we are mediocre at best. Worst part is we've spend an enormous amount of money and there is not major talent to have come out of this team. Never thought I will say this but we are getting...

Sell this Bernardeschi flop this winter. Even a few mils would be fine. I am betting he doesn't want to go, cause no one would give him even a similar salary, nevermind an increase. But we should have our directors go out and openly say it: Berna is on the market. Ciao.

Very true what ADP says and it applies to modern teams like City, Chelsea, Liverpool too. They control games. A good way to control a game would be to be safe at the back as much as possible and lethal when an opportunity presents itself. Better players create more options, but you can't lose...

Italian judiciaries probably getting worried that Seria A might start to prosper. Then people will turn their attention somewhere else for problems... I want to know what would have happened to Barca and RM if they were in Italy? Take for instance Arthur transfer they are 'investigating'... if...

Fantastic. Give this youngster a 5 year deal so he can prove himself and maybe even get a starting spot at the end. I reckon the board must be talking honestly with players and they did mess up by signing CR7, but Dybala isn't doing any favours for himself with his performances either. We've had...

Do we even know where our number 10 is heading? I would think Man City, but he might want a warmer climate and even less physical league. Is Vlahovic going to play CF in a 433? Rotating with Kean?!? That would surely bring us very far in CL.:rolleyes2:

We have so many midfielders that we should be fielding a whole team full of mids. There needs to be a strategy in place not only on who is promising or developing, but also what kind of a system we would be aiming to play. If its with 2, 3 or 4 mids - that makes a ton of difference on bench...

A deal is surely close. Whatever it is - it will be done by winter. Either signs or leaves. No sense for either side to keep him. Cannot say he made himself indispensable. Top players always show their added value in the team, Dybala has been hot and (mostly) cold for half a decade now.
