Vlahovic < Kolo
Kelly < Lucumi
Holm < Celik (on the simple basis of being available)
Di Gre < Vicario / Grabara
And Alajbegovic as an obvious joker.

So pretty much every department if Kessié comes in. Is it enough for the money spent? That would be the real question here. Guess we'll have to wait and see.
How is Kolo an upgrade compared to Vlahovic? Lucumi is debatable.

Carnevali lit into kessie and his agent on live tv lol.

- - - Updated - - -

cant really fault him here. You can say in hindsight he waited too long but they had a general agreement that one side supposedly broke. Thats on Kessie and his agent. They knew Juve couldnt offer more so playing for Juve clearly wasnt the priority.

On basically every front imo apart from the goal poaching probably.

Lucumi? Pretty sure he'll be much better than Kelly.

But I agree the improvement is too marginal and we're in for a tough season like this mate...

Needs to buy 2 more quality midfielders in 2 days... I'd even prefer that over another striker and LB as we are...

Kelly and Celik can fill in at LB.
Milik, Ekhator and Nico can fill in as ST. If they leave, we need another ST obv.

This is exactly my point. They way i would rate these transfers is that if Juventus somehow called my during this summer and offered to pay me me a trip to Turin to watch the arrivals of all these new players we signed, i would have politely declined.

Bs kessie was earning 11mil, there were reports that he would ask for 6-7mil ever since June.
With just 4,5mil, we could never efford him.
OK asking for 5mil signing bonus and extra 5-7mil for his manager is way too much, it's abusive and it's the reason we turned our back on Vlahovic too

Which is kind of okay.... If it happened in June...

Can someone tell me.....what department did we actually upgrade this summer? What players did we buy that would actually upgrade our team? I cant understand the transfers we made this summer.
I hear most of the transfer period was spent arguing about painting either our logo or Visit Detroit on all zebra crossings in Turin. Turned out that Spalletti threw one meeting into a frenzy when he offered his bald head as the canvas.
There is a great impasse & everything regarding transfers has been outsourced.
