Berardi has impressed at Sassuolo and only turned 21 a couple weeks ago. He will be at Juve next season


They've already sold their 50% of Berardi, he won't be in Juve.

They sold their 50% but still have the option to buy him back in summer 2016. They sold their half for €10 million and will use that money toward buying him for € 18 million next summer (so we'll get him for €8 mil), unless he sucks or gets seriously injured of course


and yea I'm not sure if Sandro is top 5 but he certainly has the potential to be. I'm very excited about getting him. Evra is a beast defensively but doesn't offer enough attacking


You're right, I forgot that they have the clause that allows them to buy him in a year. He scored like 1\3 of his goals of penalties anyway and disappeared in a lot of games for them, Zaza and Sansone are the ones who carried their offense last season.

Lol Kurzawa and Baba better than Sandro, ok ))

You under-rate Kurzawa, he's the clear cut 3rd best LB IMO (if Alaba is considered a LB), and closer to catching Rodriguez than getting passed by Gaya/Baba/Sandro/Shaw/Wendell. Playing for PSG next season should help him get more exposure so that this time next year it's not even debatable. Baba and Sandro is close, but Baba is more dynamic with the ball and not a liability against it so I favor him. Either way, didn't mean to be hating on this signing as it's a very good get for Juve at a position I had serious concerns about with only old man Evra there before; but I just didn't think saying Sandro was easily top 5 at LB was accurate at present.

Not sure what you're lol'ing about, Kurzawa is clearly superior to Sandro and Baba is more dynamic with the ball while of a similar caliber. Luckily Kurzawa and Baba are moving to big teams this year, so maybe you'll watch them some and realize how silly this part of your post is.

1. We only loaned Cuadrado.
2. He's a proven winger of CL caliber.
3. Berardi didn't impress even in Sassuolo.



Berardi didnt impress in Sassuolo? Do you even watch Serie A?

Yep, and I actually watched some Sassuolo, since they and Juve are in serious business relations. I'd rather have Sansone than Berardi at this point. I don't mean he's a bad player, he's good, average. We need a starting attacking midfielder to consistently contribute in the Champions League and Berardi is nowhere near that level. I think in about 2 years he'll be a CL caliber player.

It is true that some games he has been invisible but I still think he has more potential than Sansone and Zaza. I am excited to see him develop

He does have high ceiling. I'd welcome him to Juve in 2-3 years if he continues to develop at such pace.
Now, Coman, that dude needs some serious playing time, I hope he's loaned out to some bottom Seria A team, so he can play 90 mins a game.

Lol at delusional Inter fanboys thinking Kondogbia is gonna be like Pogba. Talents like Pogba don't come around that often. If you watched some France U21 you could see that Kondogbia is level or even 2 below Pogba all around.

Looks like Cuadrado is headed your way. Hope it's beneficial to both parties.

I am happy about it. I'm sure he'll do well.

Tello has been loaned to Cagliari

So apparently Allegri said he'll start Dybala up top tomorrow, which is great. Morata will available off the bench.
but he's starting Padoin center mid again :banghead: I guess the only other option would be Sturaro unless we changed formation, but those seem like better ideas :dontknow:

Wondering if we'll see Sandro or Cuadrado yet.

And hopefully someone buys Isla today. Selling him will be the best move we did all summer

Hey guys, Bayern fan coming in peace.

What do you think about Coman? Is he really that big of a talent?

I mean on the surface, it looks like a great deal for Juve. Getting a player for free and selling him for a package worth 28 M € one year later is a huge profit.
But I'm wondering why Juve agrees to the terms of the deal. It looks like we are talking about a two-year loan worth 7 M € (5 for the first year, 2 for the second one). Then Bayern has an option, not a duty, to buy him for 21 M €.

In 2 years, if Coman develops well, Bayern would trigger their option and 21 M € could be a bargain price for a then still only 21 year old winger. Look at Douglas Costa. A few months ago, people thought paying 30 M € for him was an overpay. But based on his performances so far, he is easily worth much more in a market where English teams have a crazy amount of money to spend. So in two years, Coman could be worth something like twice the amount Bayern will actually have to pay.

If he doesn't develop well, Bayern would send him back to Juve while Juve then knows that Bayern doesn't see that much potential in him anymore and he will probably have wasted two valuable years of his development.

What is your take on the deal?

I think it is kind of sad that you have had that much of a turnover over the summer after being a CL finalist. Yet I think your management was able to land some good replacements and top prospects. But then again, if Coman is that talented, he would have perfectly fitted into your new team, should have had a good shot at getting serious playing time and could have been a building block for the future.

You said it all. The only thing is he is not ready to contribute at either Juve or Bayern yet. He will need a couple years but then I expect him to be a dominant player. Only time will tell, though

So Juve is strongly linked with Lavezzi. Is he still good? I haven't watched him play in like over a year. How much $ do you think he's worth?

not to jinx us before an important match tomorrow, but after a poor start our summer signings have finally allowed us to forget those who they replaced. :clap: Dybala, Mandzukic, Sandro, Cuadrado :clap:

Zaza sucked at the beginning of the season for both Juve and Italy, but now his goal per minute average is insane. :clap:
