It seems the deal is for Rugani only.. I will cry if Higuain comes here especially if it blocks the potential transfer of Leon Bailey...

Bro Bailey isn't coming here. Pure fantasy to think so. You would rather suffer with Morata missing 20 + chanves that Higuain scoring all of them? Comon now!

Juve fans have Ronaldo and Dybala. They are hardly going to give a fuck about Higuain now. When he played for Napoli, he was hot and we know why, because he played under Sarri.

You'd think they'd at least show Higuain some respect. He did score a lot for them. They speak of him as though he's been a flop.

They had competent wide men. We could be stuck if Willian & Pedro.

They are turning into Madrista wannabes. They think a 33 year old Ronaldo is a 'Galactico esque' signing.

and be stacked with Willian and Pedro in wing position so that Hazard will not have low level IQ players to combine with... and what makes the potential move for him a Fantasy?

There are zero links with him right now. If we were seriously in gor him, i think now 18 days before the Charity sheild we would be in for such a big player. I could be wrong.

Big player in terms of what?...no wonder you tag him fantasy signing... Yeah we ain't linked with recently but we can get linked with him tomorrow and sign him as the club is busy working on so many transfer and we are linked with him towards the end of last season...so getting linked with him recently or not is the problem as we really have interest in him... So far we are ready to pay Leverkusen price valuation of him...

That is so much fucking money. Could we not get Boateng for that sort of cash?

[Henrique 9,133]

I hope this is bullshit.

The last thing the current squad needs is another fucking CB.

It's 100% the Sarri connection.

Not saying Serie A do not have good players but wish we would be more "imaginative" with our transfer purchases. We have been targeting and buying players (one too many) from Italy in the last 3-4 years. It's as if Bundesliga, La Liga or even Ligue 1 do not exist!

Re-watch last season matches away to newcastle away to Watford and home to burnley Away to bournemouth aswell tells you we do need a new CB the likes of cahill and Luiz need to go

Sarri has already coached Rugani, Higuain and Jorginho. It's just a coincidence that they're Serie A players. It's not about the league in which the player plays imo. Our last signings from La Liga, Ligue 1 and Bundesliga were Morata, Bakayoko and Baba. A rather underwhelming trio.

It's interesting that we've never had a German or a French coach in the Abramovich era.

Boateng is shit bro. Overrated. Did you see him at the WC next to Rudiger? It was embarrassing.

100000000000000% agree! Boateng is a shambolic mess at this stage. I fear we are looking at another Alex Sandro Juve nightmare, with them raising the price over and over. At least in Alex Sandro's case you could make argument he was a top 3 or 4 on planet LB after or mixed in with Alaba (clear number one RB and number one FB period) Jordi Alba (30 this coming season though),and Marcelo (already 30).

Rugani is not worth 50m euros IMHO, and certainly looks like bad value considering a month or so ago we submitted a bid that equalled Juve's AT THE TIME valuation of 30m euros.

40m  euros, yes, not 50. No way has he improved 67% in a month!

I would rather we go after

one of these 

Kalidou Koulibaly (3 year pipe dream, Napoli want £80m for him, and he is now 27, not 23, 24, which if he were 4 years younger, £80m MIGHT make sense. Also, he is NOT a 1.95m tall giant (Napoli lied on their website - quelle surprise!) as people keep saying. He is 1.87, all you have to do is look at the photo with Pogba holding his shoulder outside a training room. Pogba towers over him. Transfermarkt finally fixed this btw.

that leaves these 10

Matthijs de Ligt  Ajax (Juve will probably get him with the goddamn Rugani money!! he is only 18 and already close to world class, we are so stupid to not snatch him up)

Benjamin Pavard   VfB Stuttgart   (WC has blown his value up to crazy levels, so maybe wait on him, but Spurs seem hellbent to get him) 

Alessio Romagnoli      AC Milan    (Not sure if he will want to leave AC Milan, but he is better value for the money than Rugani, IMHO)
  
Stefan Savic     Atlético Madrid  (27 and rock solid, not sure if he is a player for Sarri ball though)

Konstantinos Manolas   Roma (27 as well, rate him over Savic)

Dayot Upamecano   RB Leipzig  only 19 HUGE upside

Rúben Dias  SL Benfica    21, realllly good young Portuguese with loads of upside, good size (1.87) and pacy

 Manuel Akanji     Borussia Dortmund   just turned 23 today fast, young, looked really good in WC and the Bundesliga games I saw him in

Jonathan Tah      Bayer Leverkusen   22   HUGE (1.94m legit) and fast for his size, not sure if he is ideal for Sarri ball

Panagiotis Retsos  Bayer Leverkusen   19    huge upside, in a few years he could be a susperstar, but maybe we need instant help now, still.........
